Northeast Family Healthcare

Northeast Family Healthcare is a center that dispenses methadone and harm reduction materials, along with counseling. They’re located in Quakertown, Pennsylvania. Even though their services are limited, they are accredited by CARF, so you know they have a standard level of care.

Northeast Family Healthcare’s main service is medication assisted treatment. Basically, clients come in for methadone, Suboxone, or Vivitrol to manage their withdrawal pains and avoid relapses. That way, they can strengthen their recovery while avoiding temptation. There’s a doctor and nursing staff on site to help you avoid an overdose. Optional counseling is available, and clients may partake in group or family therapy. Harm reduction materials are also available in case you do relapse.

The center is open only in the mornings and early afternoon, but it is fairly accessible by bus lines. Northeast Family Healthcare is part of the Pinnacle network, so you might be referred to a larger facility if needed.

Some clients have expressed concerns about the fact that medication assisted treatment is the primary treatment option. If you’re considering any treatment center, it’s good to do your research before committing to make sure their services fit your needs.
