About Spectrum Health Systems Inc. – Pittsfield
Based in Pittsfield, this facility is one of Spectrum Health Systems’ various Massachusetts locations. Clients aged 18 and older can access outpatient addiction treatment and drug rehab services here.
Clients can benefit from same-day admissions for MAT here. This schedule is designed to allow you time to fit in the admissions process on the same day. This typically involves an initial intake, toxicology tests, and physical exams, with the process taking on average about three to four hours to complete.
MAT is available here through an outpatient program, and features personalized treatment that assesses the severity of clients’ addiction, and ensures they receive medications best suited to their unique needs. Participants then undergo medical monitoring throughout the process to ensure no complications arise. At this facility, they use Suboxone, naltrexone, and methadone.
Alongside MAT, clients will also engage in individual and group therapy, as well as addiction education services. These educational sessions and workshops help clients better understand their condition, as they address their behaviors and take steps towards positive change. Education sessions are also available to family members and loved ones.
Counseling services are available here regardless of whether clients engage in MAT. Outpatient counseling consists of individual, group, and family sessions, and is an ideal tool to address both substance abuse, mental health issues, and co-occurring conditions.
As part of the center’s intensive outpatient program (IOP), clients can expect to attend two group counseling sessions and one short individual session per day. This is in addition to longer one-to-one sessions and family group sessions, all of which take place weekly. IOP typically lasts a minimum of three weeks.
