Medication Assisted Treatment in Scranton
The clinic uses the most effective FDA approved meds for their MAT. This includes methadone, buprenorphine and Vivitrol. Clients are prescribed one of these medications based on their tailored care plan to help curb cravings and manage withdrawal symptoms. They then attend counseling to tackle emotional and psychological symptoms and develop robust coping strategies to prevent relapse.
This integrated method is endorsed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) as the recipe for successful recovery. It fosters lasting abstinence, helping you return to a healthy and more rewarding lifestyle, rejoin the workforce and build fulfilling relationships.
Fast, Affordable and Flexible Opioid Recovery
While some comments suggest room for improvement most past clients rate Dunmore highly with some crediting the clinic with saving their lives. This positive feedback makes sense for many reasons, one being the clinic’s same day admission and 24/7 appointment scheduling. This ensures fast and immediate access to care and saves lives.
The clinic’s commitment to affordable care is commendable as well. They accept Medicaid, Medicare and TRICARE. They even accept state and publicly funded insurance plans. This ensures that everyone can get the quality care they need to heal.
The best part is that they provide take home medications. This gives you more flexibility, privacy and independence in managing your treatment by eliminating the need to visit the clinic daily or weekly for dosing. You can then devote your time to other activities that help your healing journey. It’s all about giving you the freedom to live your life while staying committed to treatment.

Other Forms of Payment
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
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.

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.
Drug rehab in Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term recovery.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
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.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
