About Comprehensive Mental Health Services – Independence, Missouri
Comprehensive Mental Health Services is a behavioral health provider that offers substance abuse treatment in Independence, Missouri. They’ve provided trauma informed care for adults, families and children for over 60 years. The staff members treat patients with evidence-based practices and tailor their services to each individual’s specific needs. Clients can receive treatment through outpatient (OP), and peer support services. CMHS also provides medication assisted treatment (MAT) and the CSTAR Program.
The CSTAR program is an outpatient substance abuse program that’s geared specifically towards adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18. These services are given after school hours during the school year and two to six p.m. in the summer.
Another unique service at this facility is the Healthcare Home service. Clients receiving this service will have regular assessments from a nurse care manager to ensure they’re achieving wellness goals. They’ll also get assistance with managing health conditions, help with accessing a family doctor, and access to a wellness coach who will provide health education. Persons with a severe mental health condition, such as substance abuse disorder, are eligible for this program.
The medications that are used for medication assisted treatment (MAT) include acamprosate, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. Each of these medications is designed to treat either opioid addiction, alcohol addiction, or both.
Clients who choose to participate in the peer support services can receive assistance and support from individuals who’ve been successful in recovering from addiction. Recovery coaches are trained to encourage and model recovery from substance use in a way that’s specific to the needs of the client.
