Real House, Inc. has a close partnership with Helms Medical Services, LLC. This allows them to also offer primary healthcare services. You have access to onsite medical examinations, comprehensive blood work services, podiatry and gynecology services, and medical assistance with substance use disorders.
When appropriate, your healthcare provider may prescribe Subucade, Vivitrol, or Suboxone to help you manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms as you adjust to life without substances. These medications are carefully monitored and don’t produce the “high” that illicit substances do, making them a safe and effective treatment for addiction. They also reduce the effects of illicit substances, reducing your desire to use.
