Treatment on Harbor Islands in Quincy, Massachusetts

The treatment center is located on an island bordering Boston Harbor in the Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park. The center is less than a mile from the Long Island Head Light, a historic lighthouse marking the entrance to Boston Harbor.

Adults 18 and over who need acute substance use disorder (SUD) treatment can find care here. They treat clients with addictions to benzodiazepines, heroin, alcohol, methamphetamines, and other opiates.

One of the nice things about this center is that the team prioritizes the treatment of individuals dealing with SUD and homelessness. Clients are monitored around the clock for a safe and comfortable detox experience.

Additional Bay Cove Treatment Programs

The organization offers additional treatment programs at other locations. They have two emergency shelters that accept unhoused women and men who are using alcohol and drugs. The shelters offer mental health and medical care.

Additionally, clients receive clean clothes, nutritious meals, hygiene supplies, case management services, and counseling. All of the services are offered in a clean, safe, and welcoming environment.

Another innovative program offered through this organization is the Mirasol Center for Healing. The center is a trauma responsive adult program. They prioritize unhoused clients dealing with SUD, though they do accept other eligible clients. The program offers harm reduction and SUD services.

Methadone Treatment in Boston

The treatment center on Canal Street in Boston offers intensive outpatient treatment for clients with opioid use disorder (OUD). This includes medication assisted treatment (MAT) with methadone. Methadone is an evidence based treatment for OUD. Patients receive counseling, case management, and other supportive services.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
