About Lake Region Hospital – Fergus Falls
Lake Region Healthcare in Fergus Falls Minnesota offers a program to help patients overcome opioid use disorder. You’ll be given a specific treatment plan that was created by your unique needs. In addition to your treatment, you will receive resources that are vital for long-term sobriety. Accepting various forms of payment, Lake Region wants all individuals to have the opportunity to get clean no matter what financial situation you are in.
Once you arrive at Lake Region your treatment will begin with an initial assessment in order to develop a treatment plan. Once that’s completed, your treatment will likely begin with medication assisted treatment using Suboxone which will help prevent your cravings and can reduce some withdrawal symptoms. It also blocks the effects of opioid use.
You will have regular follow-up appointments so they can monitor your progress and adjust any medications if needed. In addition to the medications used you will have access to mental health counseling, social services and other resources to help you address the impacts of your addiction. Over a period of time the dosage of Suboxone will be gradually reduced and hopefully stopped entirely when you no longer need it.
The goal at Lake Region Healthcare is to eventually stabilize your opioid disorder while providing therapy sessions so you can understand your addiction. Ongoing resources for access to mental health counseling and substance abuse support helps patience feel stronger and more equipped when returning back to their daily lives. You will be encouraged to build a support system that can help you develop coping strategies to make recovery less overwhelming.
