About PHMC Care Clinic – Philadelphia
As the birthplace of the U.S., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is known for its rich history and culture. It’s also home to PHMC Care Clinic. Established in 1992, this nonprofit provides specialized primary and behavioral health care to several North Philadelphia communities. You can access medication assisted treatment (MAT), support services and treatment referrals to start your recovery journey. One of the best parts is that their services are available to anyone regardless of your ability to pay.
Their Joint Commission accredited clinic provides MAT to help you overcome withdrawal symptoms and cravings that can hinder recovery. They also offer peer counseling, case management, and peer support for specific populations. Along with these proven approaches they can link you to several levels of care to fit your unique needs including residential rehab, partial hospitalization programs and standard outpatient treatment.
What stands out most to me is their dedication to serving communities with significant treatment barriers. Their diverse team of experts works to address health disparities and create a space where you feel welcomed and accepted. They highlight this by providing easily accessible, culturally competent care.
You can access bilingual services to feel fully understood during your recovery journey. Additionally they accept walk ins and provide same day appointments so you can find the help you seek as soon as possible. They’re also easy to get to by subway or bus reducing any transportation barriers.
Another amazing feature is their primary and social services. You’ll benefit from assistance with securing support for essential life aspects. They provide healthcare, HIV and Hepatitis C services, food bank vouchers, health and nutrition counseling, employment training referrals, housing assistance, legal support and much more. With these services you can enhance your overall wellbeing and create a solid platform for sustained recovery.
