When I first entered JRS as a patient over 4 years ago I was a complete mess! These folks were so caring and non-judgmental and they welcomed me with open arms. Every single one of the staff, nurses, doctors and counselors were all so nice and they never made me feel ashamed ...

Medication Supported Recovery with Methadone and Buprenorphine
They offer accessible medication assisted treatment (MAT) for residents of this community and the broader Johnston County. One great feature of this clinic is their flexible dosing schedule, which includes weekend availability.
MAT is a research-backed technique that pairs FDA-approved medications with behavioral therapy to support long-term abstinence. Most people know Johnston Recovery Services as a methadone maintenance clinic because they primarily dispense methadone for their MAT program. However, they also use buprenorphine which is another powerful and popular option in opioid addiction treatment.
Following screening or assessment, your tailored care will involve a prescription of either of these medications to help manage painful withdrawal symptoms and alleviate physiological cravings. This grants you the clarity and focus needed to achieve lasting recovery through behavioral therapy.
Therapy sessions address underlying emotional and psychological triggers, helping you build healthier coping mechanisms to prevent relapse and sustain long-term healing. This trusted and integrated approach can help you reclaim your life, mend broken relationships and maintain meaningful employment necessary to achieve stability.

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.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
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.
There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.
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.
