About BD Health Services – Dundalk
BD Health in Dundalk, Maryland, is a state-certified opioid treatment that provides assistance to individuals struggling with opioid addiction. The facility aims to offer a variety of high quality services including medication assisted treatment (MAT) using methadone and counseling. They want to set up clients for long-term sobriety and make the recovery as comfortable as possible.
The staff will provide clients with a safe, caring and confidential environment. Appointments are available as early as 5:15 am or earlier if needed to accommodate a client’s work schedule. Individuals can call to set up an appointment or fill out an online form.
The process will start with an intake screening assessment. Staff members will generally perform a medical assessment of the client and get information about the client’s history of substance use and what goals and needs they have.
Together with the client, an individualized treatment is set up to get the client started with recovery. For some clients, the first step in their treatment will be methadone administration. This is a daily medication that reduces a client’s cravings and any symptoms of withdrawal they’re experiencing. As the client stabilizes, they can start receiving other forms of treatment.
Individual and group counseling can guide clients in understanding their triggers and developing their coping skills. They’ll typically be treated with therapeutic approaches such as motivational interviewing (MI) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). Their MI services can assist with increasing client’s motivation to change their behaviors while DBT can help patients regulate their emotions and manage their thoughts so they feel less need to use substances.
