About Harbor Care Health and Wellness Center
Harbor Care is a mental health support and drug and alcohol addiction recovery based in Nashua, New Hampshire. Harbor Care helps individuals and their families achieve stability following crises and times of personal difficulty through comprehensive, person centered care. They are a nonprofit facility with clinical amenities. Harbor Care is a network of service providers catering to the needs of New Hampshire residents. In addition to mental health and addiction care, they have housing, veteran, and HIV/AIDS programs available.
Residential treatment is a high level of care designed for clients with severe symptoms considered high risk. During inpatient care, they reside on campus under a set of restrictions to limit the risk of relapse and keep them safe. Clients are under staff monitoring throughout their stay.
Clients work with a care team to develop their treatment based on need. Treatment uses evidence backed therapies and holistic methods alongside education opportunities to help clients better understand the nature of addiction and their triggers while developing coping skills that support continued recovery.
Clients who complete inpatient care can transition into the outpatient program, or it can be entered into directly by clients with less intrusive symptoms. During outpatient programming, clients live at home and visit the campus for treatment sessions on a regular, relaxed schedule. The same therapies used in the residential program are used in outpatient care.
The medical team at Harbor Care may prescribe clients medication to help them overcome addiction or mental health symptoms that prevent them from focusing on treatment and recovery. Traditionally, MAT is used in treating opioid use disorder but can be applied in other cases if an assessment suggests it would help a client. Those receiving MAT are closely observed for adverse effects and to track their health.

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
The aim of a medically supervised detox is to minimize withdrawal symptoms while removing alcohol and drugs from your system under 24/7 medical supervision and keep you as safe and as comfortable as possible. Medical detox is usually the first step in the recovery process as a whole, and it can take about 5-7 days to complete. This process is usually at least partially covered by most insurance plans.

Treatment
Mental Health
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
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
Family Therapy
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
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.
