Detox and rehabilitation institution that has great on-site nurses, peer-support techs, counselors, and other staff to keep a person comfortable while going through the challenges of early recovery. Served three meals a day with plenty of snacks; A couple of tvs for people who want to watch movies; and walks to the nearby beach at least a couple times a week. Two people to a room; Handicap accessible. I recommend this place if you are in active addiction and need a place to sober up safely.

Janus Rehab Center has been a life-changing place for my close friend, and I can’t say enough good things about the incredible care they received. My friend often talked about how much they appreciated the positive atmosphere and how the staff and other participants helped them feel part of a community. It was heartwarming to see them regain their confidence and discover their strength. Thanks to Janus, my friend is happier, healthier, and more hopeful than I’ve seen them in years. I’m beyond grateful for everything Janus has done for them. I don’t often write reviews, but I can see how much this program helped them become the person they want to be in this life.

I went here two times and if you want to change your life and get on your feet,..this is the place to go to! i was court ordered the first time for 90 days I ended up graduating after 6 months on my own recognizance. Hit a low point in my sobriety and knew what I needed to do the second time cause I had the 1st time in my tool box. I highly recommend this place to ANYONE who needs help with their life. I made friends there that will be the best and closest I will ever have in that place.

Co-ed; Shared rooms. Three meals a day provided. All residents have to pass a screening process before coming in. Reminded me of Janus, but it's a house instead of a building.

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is appropriate for the treatment of opioid use disorder and includes counseling and medication management in an outpatient setting. T
I've read a few reviews that had some incorrect information for people reading. I have been there for 1 year. Someone said they lower your does if you miss a day and kicked out after 3 no-shows. If you miss 3 your dose gets lowered not for 1 day and you are nowhere near kicked out for 3. I would have been booted way back. Also someone said you can't start same day. May be true but you can in 2. As far as making it there by 12:30. I don't make it every day but you can if you want to . It's not that hard. I've been to clinics like that though and it's tough. Dirty uas do not lower your dose either. Not even. I gave it 5 stars for the people working there It's a clinic so as I give it 3 stars but the people are cool.

I've been going there as a patient and even worked there off and on since it was named "Triad" back in the late 90s and it's a great clinic for MMT/MAT. At times it's definitely been less than perfect, particularly in the past (2003 to 2005). But since Janus has taken over they're far more consistent and reliable now. Counselors can be a mixed bag, but that's true anywhere and the vast majority of the time they're great. It's a good program, you just have to be willing to work it. Do that and you have a very high chance that you'll succeed.
