Methadone
Treatment for Overcoming Addiction to Heroin, Oxycontin, and Opium-based
Prescription Drugs
Colonial Management Group believes that addiction
to heroin and other opiates is a disease. Colonial Management Group
runs methadone treatment centers to help addicts overcome addiction
to heroin, opium and opiate-based prescriptions. We use methadone treatment
as a way to relieve the craving for heroin, and opiate-based prescription
drugs (Dilaudid, Percodan, Percocet, Propoxyphene). Our goal is to treat
our patients with dignity and respect in each phase of their treatment
experience.
We focus the work
in our clinics on managing the disease and strive hard to improve our
patients' quality of life. This involves implementing the most current
research findings in our treatment of our patients.
Because of our
concern for the community as a whole, we seek to be a resource by educating
the public on the disease of addiction and advocating the value of treatment
in improving the lives of the people struggling with this addiction.
Each person on
our team is doing his or her part to help those with opiate addictions
and improve the quality of life in their communities.
Patients are assigned
a personal counselor and are seen on varying schedules according to
the length of time in treatment and also the responses gained from treatment.
The counselors routinely monitor the patient's drug-free status by use
of random urinalysis, which are taken at least once a month but more
often as clinically indicated or as mandated by state rules. Treatment
plans are utilized throughout the treatment stay and are modified as
necessary in accordance with each progression.
Any identifiable
problem the patient brings into treatment is addressed. The center establishes
and maintains a non-judgmental, caring and compassionate atmosphere
in which patients feel free to identify and move to correct personal
or societal deficiencies. Counselors seek to establish a partnership
relation with the patient in addressing problems and their resolution.
Addiction to heroin
and other opiates is a disease. Let us help you or your patients use
methadone to relieve the craving for heroin, opium and opiate-based
prescription drugs (Dilaudid, Percodan, Percocet, Propoxyphene). Our
goal is to treat our patients with dignity and respect in each phase
of their treatment experience.
