Lahey Health Behavioral Services – Methadone Program

About Lahey Health Behavioral Services – Methadone Program – Danvers

Lahey Health Behavioral Services – Methadone Program is now a part of Beth Israel Lahey Health after a merger in 2019. This clinic in Deavers, Massachusetts, is called the Danvers Treatment Center and serves adults. If you are struggling with drug, alcohol or opiate use, you’ll be supported by addiction treatment, detox support and clinical stabilization services at this location.

At the Danvers Treatment Center, you’ll also have access to their methadone program. This program uses FDA approved medications including methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone) and Vivitrol to help you manage ongoing cravings and early withdrawal symptoms.

If you’re struggling with alcohol or opioid use, their medically monitored detox program is a supportive and structured place to start your recovery. This detox program lasts anywhere from four to six days.

You’ll be supported with round the clock medical care, allowing you to safely work through the early stages of detox. Through medication assistance, healthcare providers will help you manage your withdrawal symptoms so that your body can reach a point of stabilization. From there you can transition to their outpatient or inpatient treatment program.

The outpatient, detox, and clinical stabilization services are tailored to meet your recovery needs. There are individualized treatment plans that have a strong focus on addiction education and skills development. There’s also individual case management to help you receive appropriate care that addresses the specific struggles you’re facing.

One of the benefits of seeking care here is that you’ll have access to recovery support through the Beth Israel Lahey Health network. There’s a strong focus on providing clinical care that’s rooted in evidence based practices. This approach to recovery can be especially helpful for individuals who are starting their recovery and want care that treats addiction from a medical standpoint.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-Step

12 step programs such as Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous are support group style programs for individuals who are experiencing alcohol or substance use disorder. At Evoke they use a holistic model of addiction care that includes using 12 step programs. These programs are an integral part of most relapse prevention plans and provide continued support and accountability that support sobriety.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
