About Beacon Center – Niagara Falls
The Niagra Falls Outpatient facility is part of the Beacon Center. The facility is located in Niagra Falls, New York. Their outpatient facility provides treatment for individuals who may have a substance use disorder, mental health disorder or a dual diagnosis. They are able to direct you to one of their other locations for their opioid treatment program if needed. The care they offer is said to be affordable.
The medication assisted treatment is overseen by a clinic physician which I do like. I like that it is overseen by a clinic physician because they can make sure the appropriate medication is used and they ensure your safety while maintaining the appropriate level of care for you. Another thing I like about their medication assisted treatment is that it is paired with counseling. Through the counseling sessions they will help you make behavioral changes while the medication helps you stay stable and avoid relapse. The medication they may provide for an opioid use disorder is either Buprenorphine or Vivitrol. They use Naltrexone for individuals with an alcohol use disorder.
Their intensive outpatient program does allow you to maintain a work and school balance. You would be required to attend individual and group therapy sessions for a total of 9 hours per week. I like that they offer a compass program. This program is for those who have a dual diagnosis. It helps people receive simultaneous treatment for both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder.
They also provide outpatient substance use disorder counseling. The counselor will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the best treatment. They also will go over your psychological history. By doing so they are able to go over your alcohol and drug use, medical and mental history, family history and relationships. Once all of that is gone over, they will determine and develop a personalized course of treatment. I like that they help keep you accountable by random drug testing. The drug testing may be by a urine toxicology screen, blood alcohol testing or hair follicle testing.
