About Sacramento Comprehensive Treatment Center – Sacramento
In Sacramento, California, known as the City of Trees, the Sacramento Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC) provides addiction treatment for adults recovering from opioid use disorders (OUD). Offering medication assisted treatment (MAT) and counseling services they help adults aged 18 and older achieve long term recovery and improved health. Sacramento has a unique environment to support recovery with many community resources and advocacy groups playing a vital role in reducing stigma. CTC’s mission is to help make the community a healthier place, much like the city’s trees help keep the environment healthy.
Getting started with treatment is easier than you might think. You can be admitted to the program the same day you reach out. They accept most insurance plans, including MediCal, Medicare and Veterans Affairs. They also have self pay options.
When you start treatment here the first thing you’ll do is meet with a healthcare provider who will work with you to figure out the best medication for your needs. You might be prescribed methadone, Suboxone, buprenorphine or naltrexone. At first you’ll visit every day to get your medication, but over time you may qualify for take home doses.
There are many sides to addiction, including physical and emotional. Along with medication you’ll have counseling. MAT helps ease withdrawal symptoms and provides the clarity needed to focus on your recovery. Through individual and group counseling you’ll have the chance to explore the underlying causes of your addiction, making it easier to build a future free from opioids.
Opioid use disorder in seniors is often overlooked, leaving many older adults without the care they need. Unlike some treatment programs that don’t account for the unique challenges seniors face, here they provide safe, evidence based care specifically designed to support this age group. With Medicare now covering OUD treatment under the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act, seniors can access outpatient services designed just for them.
Based on client feedback Sacramento Comprehensive Treatment Center offers quick, compassionate care. While some have faced challenges with Medicare billing, clients praise the center’s same day intake and friendly staff.
