DetoxAbout Community Medical Services
Community Medical Services is a CARF accredited treatment center located in Fargo, North Dakota. They specialize in treating women, pregnant women and men who are struggling with chemical dependency. At this facility they treat opioid, heroin and fentanyl addiction. They accept Medicaid and Medicare insurance.
Their medication assisted treatment (MAT) is designed for individuals who are struggling with severe withdrawals and consistent cravings due to chemical dependency. The approach combines behavioral therapy and prescribed medication. The medications they utilize are buprenorphine methadone, and naltrexone.
The beginning stages of recovery can feel lonely because you’re transitioning your life, and more often than not that also means leaving people behind who aren’t healthy for your life in recovery. Community Medical Services provides peers who are trained specialists with personal experience with addiction and are now living a life of recovery. This gives you a chance to open up without the fear of being misunderstood or judged. They utilize peers in hospitals, corrections, pregnancy support and support groups.
What sticks out to me the most is their program for pregnant moms. They offer MAT during pregnancy and they also provide treatment for neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). They provide education, ongoing support and resources to help your family heal and move forward.
What I found unique about them is how they work with correctional health facilities to assist individuals who are incarcerated and struggle with chemical dependency. They offer chemical dependency treatment that includes telehealth services, pregnancy support, peer support services, counseling and medication delivery.
During your time off from receiving treatment at Community Medical Services, you can explore the outdoors in Fargo and gain new sober interests like biking, fishing or hiking. Some places to check out are Red River Trail, Downtown Fargo RiverWalk and Forest River Park.

Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Men and women in North Dakota find accountability and motivation within group therapy sessions. Members encourage each other to stay committed to their recovery goals, which fosters a sense of community and shared progress. These friendships often follow you outside the group therapy setting.
People in North Dakota work confidentially with their therapist who uses tailored interventions in the individual therapy sessions.

Motivational interviewing helps you find internal motivation to change. If you're feeling insecure about your ability to change or ambivalent about the need for change, this method can help you explore your options and motivations.
Trauma therapy aims to help you heal from the emotional and physical effects that are common after witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event. Working with a therapist, you learn to process the experience and develop healthy coping strategies that reduce your anxiety and improve your self confidence.
Couples therapy lasts an average of 12 sessions. Most sessions involve both partners; however, therapists may also meet with each partner individually. The focus of couples therapy is to address conflict and improve the way you handle challenges in the relationship.
Family therapists in North Dakota use therapy sessions to emphasize healing the relationships that were strained by addiction. Your therapist will help each family member understand the role they played in addiction and their responsibilities in recovery. This helps foster a collaborative approach that benefits each loved one and the family unit.
Learning life skills in rehab is crucial to recovery. Addiction interferes with basic life skills, and many who are addicted are at a loss as to how to navigate daily life. Life skills training during rehab reteaches these skills so you can leave treatment with the tools you need to cope with day to day challenges.
