About MedMark Treatment Centers Greensburg – Greensburg
MedMark Treatment Centers is a very large and respected network of addiction treatment centers that has locations throughout the US. This outpatient clinic in Greensburg, Pennsylvania is one of those locations where they’re treating adults for drug addiction and specifically opioid dependency.
A core part of their program is medication assisted treatment (MAT). MAT uses medications like methadone and buprenorphine which work by blocking the opioid receptors in your body. This basically tricks your body into thinking it’s getting opioids so you don’t have such strong cravings or withdrawal symptoms and yet you’re not getting a high. This is an evidence based approach that can help with heroin addiction or fentanyl addiction as well as addiction to pain pills.
While medications are effective for helping the physical side of addiction there’s a mental addiction going on too. MedMark Treatment Centers Greensburg helps with that too through a structured schedule of individual counseling and group counseling. In these sessions you’ll address the mental factors that play into addiction and talk through the challenges that you face through recovery.
Everyone’s treatment here is individualized based on you and what you need for recovery but they also have some more specialized services. For example they have treatment for pregnant clients and they offer guest dosing for MAT clients who are visiting the area.
Their case management services can help you navigate a lot of hurdles in your recovery like funding your care and securing housing and so on. They also will help you plan your continued recovery and link you with resources you might need like financial assistance and mental health care.
Clients at this treatment center praise the counselors for their knowledge and compassion. In fact many clients say that they’ve been to numerous MAT clinics throughout their recovery journeys and that this one is above the others in how effective the counselors are and in how professionally and smoothly the clinic is run.
