Comprehensive Addiction Treatment Services
Navigating the path to recovery from alcohol and substance use requires comprehensive, compassionate support tailored to the individual’s specific needs. The Cornell Scott-Hill Health Center offers a range of addiction treatment services designed to guide individuals through every stage of recovery, from acute withdrawal management to sustained outpatient care. With a focus on accessibility and personalized care, their programs integrate medical and behavioral health support to address the complex nature of addiction.
Integrated Levels of Care
The program structure includes various levels of intensity, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate care based on the severity of their addiction and their current stage in the recovery process. This layered approach helps maximize the potential for successful long-term recovery.
Services offered include:
- Inpatient Withdrawal Management (Detox): Providing a safe, medically supervised environment for individuals undergoing the initial stages of withdrawal.
- Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): A structured, intensive program that allows individuals to return home in the evenings.
- Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP): Less intensive than PHP, focusing on ongoing therapy and support while maintaining daily responsibilities.
- Outpatient Substance and Mental Health Treatment: Offering continued therapeutic support for maintaining sobriety and addressing co-occurring mental health issues.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Recognizing the effectiveness of combining behavioral therapy with medication, the center offers evidence-based Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) options. These treatments are critical tools in reducing cravings and preventing relapse, helping patients stabilize their lives and engage fully in recovery.
Available MAT services include:
- Methadone Maintenance Program
- Suboxone® (Buprenorphine treatment)
- Vivitrol (Naltrexone)
By providing a seamless transition between different care levels and incorporating effective MAT protocols, Cornell Scott-Hill Health Center demonstrates a strong commitment to empowering individuals in the New Haven area to achieve lasting recovery and improved well-being.
