About Spectrum Health Systems

Spectrum’s outpatient treatment center in Weymouth opened in August 2017 just a short drive away from our inpatient facility located across the street from South Shore Hospital.

Founded in 1969, Spectrum Health Systems, Inc. is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals impacted by addiction and/or mental health disorders. Over the past 50 years, Spectrum has become known as an industry leader, helping thousands of individuals overcome addiction and reclaim their lives.

Today, we offer a continuum of addiction treatment services across Massachusetts, including inpatient detoxification, residential rehabilitation, medication-assisted treatment, outpatient counseling and peer recovery support. Spectrum also operates a number of residential programs for the Massachusetts Department of Youth Services. And, we have state contracts throughout the country to provide specialized programming for criminal offenders with histories of substance abuse.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

Spectrum’s detoxification programs provide 24-hour medical supervision and compassionate nursing care to ensure safe withdrawal from alcohol, opioids and other substances. Medications are used to suppress withdrawal symptoms and make clients as comfortable as possible during detoxification. During this time, they work with each client to prepare them for the next step in the recovery process. Because addiction is a chronic disease, most individuals benefit from continued treatment to learn how to live drug-free and sustain their recovery over time.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

outpatient iconOutpatient

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.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.

opium iconOpioid 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 iconSubstance 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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

family iconFamily 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.

intervention iconGroup 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.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

Check icon Accreditations

CARF

The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is a non-profit organization that specifically accredits rehab organizations. Founded in 1966, CARF's, mission is to help service providers like rehab facilities maintain high standards of care.

CARF Accreditation: Yes

Such potential but this place Comess up with dumbest ideas. Just this morning I sat in line for 15 minutes thinking it was my turn. Oh no I get to window but they weren't doing take homes so I had to wait for the other window. As I waited another 15 minutes and watched 10 people behind me now pass me can be kind of frustrating esp when you have to get to work.....to feel punished for doing well. Someone is trying too hard and it's destroying what was once a solid place and turning it into Topeka... If you know you knowEdit since I can't reply.First thing tried..... Butwas denied

This clinic saved my life! I've been clean for almost 18 months now. From the nurses to the clinicians this place is the best of the best. But above all of that the director Kristen was my clinician for over a year and a big part of why I am doing so well today. They could not have chosen a better person to fill that job

Spectrum in weymouth MA is amazing. The clinical team there is second to none l. My quality of life has improved greatly after getting connected with this clinic. I couldn't imagine my life if I didn't have Alex, Derek, Gabby, and Kristin in my corner. The way that I have been built up to the person I want to be today not only makes me happy but also makes my family and the people around me happy. I am forever grateful to the team at spectrum out patient and am happy that their is a place like this for others to go and feel welcomed at the hardest part of recovery.

The Staff are atrocious! Absolutely terrible! Always changing policies and treating people like sub humans. It's not right. Including the new director Kristen. She needs a new job! I'm more than 3 years sober and yesterday I brought all my takehome bottles in 2 days early because 2 or more bottles had opened up and spilled all inside my bag for the nurse who originally prepared my takehomes didn't properly fasten all the caps to each bottle. I was denied service, rudely dismissed and accused of foul play then told to leave the property. I left feeling hopeless and in tears. I spent the afternoon at the hospital which thankfully dosed me yesterday. Today... I'm scared for my own wellbeing and the possibilty of relapsing because I have no dose to take. Ill be speaking to my attorney!

Response from the owner2 years ago

I e been at the Weymouth clinic for 4 yrs now and I was on a CSAC in Jamaica Plain prior and I'll tell you they 100% better than that clinic.. the counselors do care I have met a lot of genuine people on this clinic..It's a smaller clinic.. sometimes things can get inconsistent but compared to all the clinics in Boston it's the best you will find..My sobriety really began here..They have really helped me in so many ways..We have a newer director now and that has helped alot as the director we had prior (Liz) was the only big issue w this clinic

Response from the owner2 years ago
