Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

Treatment

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance Abuse

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Clinical Services

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

From South Amboy complex to Aberdeen and on and off for 15 years but consistently with these nurses and counselors for past 6 years. I've done the work with cooperation from staff and IOP. Have achieved trust, a house, a car and newly married! MAT some frown upon but it REALLY does work others! You'll get out what you put in to your recovery!

There's a huge difference between a policy and a state law.Every one of these places needs to be challenged on silly,unethical, or just plain useless old policies that bully & stigmatize the client unnecessarily.Changing a state law is differentGood luck.Been on Mdone for 53 yrs, I've been an advocate for change for the last 7. The biggest problem is not only the unwillingness of the clinic to work for a better system and not only are counselors happy with the status qou, so are the clients , as much as they complain.It take numbers, standing together, to change things.

If you can go some place else go. They dont care about their clients. Its about numbers and money. I have been on methadone almost 3 years have not relapsed and moved while on methadone. My first clinic was amazing they personalized everyones treatment and cared about their clients. This clinic is horrible they hinder people working on their program and doing well.They blame all their decisions on the state when they are outright untrue. I am in the medical field so I investigate everything told to me.If you can...... go to another clinic, i dont drive so im stuck. So i go once a month to pick up my meds and thats it and I get assistance with my recovery outside of their facility.I do give credit where credit is due cause this is a difficult field. I was a mentor for NJSAMS but this facility just doesnt care. Its very sad!

Personally this is the best methadone clinic I have ever been to and I've been to a few. Especially since they moved to.the new building. Unless you don't go dose until the last second there is no line. My counselor is a lovely lady (yay Megan) and goes out of her way and above and beyond for me if I need anything or help with something. I have never been spoken to rudely or disrespected by anyone working there, receptionists included. They have changed their hours since covid and the schedule has been a blessing, it has cut wait times in half. The only negative thing would be the clients causing trouble and arguing with staff. Usually about something clearly not allowed and then after being told no by the staff in regards to whatever stupid thing they loudly ask, clients will very loudly throw a tantrum about how that the staff is sooooo mean and unfair. Also the camera is not a recording it is a live feed and only in the bathrooms used for drug tests.. its up in the corner of the bathroom and only used for monitored urines and you are told when they are using it beforehand. Unless you're hiding something and trying to cheat the drug test it's no different than if the person collecting it was standing next to you monitoring. And these bathrooms were not available to anyone except clients taking UAs.
