About Pocomoke Health Center – Worcester County Health Department

Pocomoke City, Maryland, is located in Worcester County and is known as “the friendliest town on the Eastern Shore.” The city is also where you’ll find the Pocomoke Health Center, which is operated by the Worcester County Health Department and provides outpatient addiction treatment for adults and adolescents.

The clinic accepts Medicaid and other health insurance coverage. They can also help those without insurance with a sliding fee scale and possibly other entitlement programs.

Outpatient Addiction Treatment in Pocomoke

The Pocomoke Health Center has an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and general outpatient care. They provide group therapy as well as individual counseling where you work on specific treatment goals one on one.

Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is available as well, which uses medication along with counseling to help you establish long term recovery. The medications used include buprenorphine, naltrexone, Vivitrol, disulfiram and methadone.

If you need more intensive care, such as inpatient detox or residential treatment, the Center can refer you to the appropriate program. There is also a peer warm line available 24/7 which I think you may find helpful. You can call 1 (844) 663-7337 at any time for support and assistance.

Social Services Referrals

Beyond immediate services at the clinic, the staff can refer you to a variety of departments for assistance with basic needs. I think it’s helpful that they can connect you to housing services, the Motor Vehicle Administration for help with your driver’s license and the Social Security Administration for help enrolling in benefits. The clinic can also link you to recovery support groups and other community resources to help you build your sober support network and create a solid foundation for recovery.
