About Recovery Services of New Mexico Five Points Clinic – Albuquerque

Recovery Services of New Mexico is deeply involved in community outreach programs that help fight opioid addiction. One way they serve the community is by providing addiction treatment to incarcerated people.
MAT is a critical component of opioid addiction. Clients seeking treatment for opioid use disorder commonly experience intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms that raise the risk of relapse and interfere with treatment. The Recovery Services of New Mexico medical team uses MAT to give clients FDA approved medication to reduce or eliminate these symptoms so they can better focus on their recovery.
Recovery Services of New Mexico uses Methadone, Suboxone, and Vivitrol for MAT. An assessment will determine which one is appropriate for a client’s use. MAT is closely monitored while clients take medication to avoid adverse effects and adjust as needed.
MAT is shown to be more effective when combined with therapeutic approaches. The Recovery Services of New Mexico outpatient program allows clients to participate in therapy while continuing to live at home. Clients visit the facility on a regular schedule to receive treatment. The outpatient treatment schedule is flexible to accommodate the needs of clients.
Clients work with a personal counselor to develop their treatment plan. The counselor helps clients learn more about the addiction and develop coping and life skills through therapy approaches that fit their needs. Counselors can also connect clients with additional medical resources as needed.
All clients receiving MAT participate in outpatient therapy.
Recovery Services of New Mexico is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the Commission on Laboratory Accreditation, and the National Accreditation of Correctional Health Care.
