In northern Columbus, Ohio, you can find the North Community Counseling Centers (NCCC) Bridge Location. Bridge is one of NCCC’s four locations in Columbus, out of which they run their substance use disorder (SUD) treatments. At their core, they view addiction as a disease that can be treated rather than a moral failure, a philosophy that imbues their treatments with a measure of grace. It also means they strive to promote the most effective modalities in helping patients recover.
At NCCC Bridge, anyone aged 18 and older can access their outpatient rehabilitation programs for alcohol and substance use disorders. They treat people on Medicare and Medicaid and can also accept people on a cash or self payment basis.
NCCC’s approach to treatment rests on three pillars, the first of which is counseling. The program requires that patients come into the office for weekly individual and group counseling sessions. Here, they offer therapy and guidance to help patients through the recovery process and with other mental health counseling if required. NCCC does require that participants stay abstinent from illicit substances and use random drug testing to keep patients accountable.
The second pillar is the use of medication assisted treatment (MAT), understanding that some people will need a little more help during recovery. Because of this, participants must also keep regular appointments with a prescribing physician.
At the start of their admission process, patients undergo an assessment to gauge their needs in relation to recovery from alcohol or substance addiction. At this point, it may become apparent to the assessor that a person’s needs are intensive enough to warrant inpatient care. If this is the case, NCCC can transfer the individual to one of their other locations where inpatient treatment is offered.
