Heroin Addiction Treatment At Bedrock Recovery Center

Many people experiencing heroin addiction today first started using an addictive prescription opioid drug, such as Vicodin or OxyContin. However your heroin addiction began, you can get on the path to recovery at Bedrock Recovery Center.

Our compassionate, multidisciplinary care team can help you stop using heroin and other addictive substances safely and give you the tools to maintain long-term recovery. We provide solutions that are regarded by the scientific and medical communities to be the most effective approaches for treating opioid and heroin use disorder, including withdrawal management, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and evidence-based therapies, all in a residential setting that offers 24/7 access to medical care and support.

Treatment at BRC also includes access to amenities such as our fully equipped fitness center, yoga and meditation classes, nutritious meals served daily, semi-private suites with attached shared bathrooms, and movie theater with comfy recliner chairs. Prosocial and recreation activities also include game nights, basketball, ping-pong, group fitness classes, outdoor movies when the weather is nice, and more.

Bedrock’s Treatment Program For Heroin Addiction

Bedrock Recovery Center employs an onsite psychiatrist who is board certified in addiction medicine, registered nurses and other licensed nurses, master’s-level counselors and therapists, and other highly qualified staff to support you throughout your stay with us.

Shortly after your arrival, you will receive an assessment to determine your care needs, with a personalized treatment plan developed based on those needs in addition to your own goals for recovery.

Detox is often the first step in treatment, ensuring your safety and an increased level of comfort as your body flushes drugs from your system. Your care team will continue to monitor you for post-acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS) symptoms once detox is complete.

Many people facing heroin addiction benefit from MAT services, and our MAT coordinator will likely meet with you to discuss these options. Any treatment involving the use of medications is bolstered considerably when other treatment options are also provided, such as behavioral therapy and counseling.
At BRC, you will have many options for evidence-based and holistic supportive options.

Key Aspects Of Our Program

In general, people who come to Bedrock in need of heroin addiction treatment begin with our heroin detox services, transition into further inpatient treatment, and receive aftercare planning support before returning home, allowing the same care team to stay with them throughout all levels of care and treatment services.

Our treatment providers are trained in trauma-informed care as well as dual diagnosis care to help meet a wide variety of needs.

Medical Detox

Through BRC’s medical detox program, you will receive supervision and monitoring to make sure that you stay safe and as comfortable as possible during the withdrawal process. Your care team may provide medications to treat or avoid particularly difficult withdrawal symptoms.

Your case manager will meet with you to discuss any personal needs related to your recovery, such as legal assistance or help maintaining your job while you receive care. You may also receive therapy sessions, attend support group meetings, and discuss further treatment options.

Continued Inpatient Care

Developing long-term recovery skills to handle heroin addiction often requires professional support in a substance-free setting. BRC’s inpatient program provides this through onsite medication-assisted treatment, counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), group therapy, family therapy, psychoeducation, peer support groups, wellness activities, and more.

For example, peer support groups at BRC allow you to share your journey with accepting peers who have similar stories and goals, providing a sense of release and reducing feelings of shame. For many people, taking part in regular 12-step mutual self-help meetings is a key feature of a sober life. Having a sponsor or mentor who is further along their recovery journey can be a real help in tough moments.

Aftercare Planning

Bedrock’s aftercare coordinator will meet with you and your care team before you complete your program to help set up access to your next steps in care. This may include continuation of MAT services, therapy, peer support groups, and more in your area or assistance with finding a sober living home or outpatient program near you.

Learn More About Heroin Addiction

Heroin is a highly addictive substance that can lead to an opioid use disorder (OUD). If you’ve noticed the signs of addiction below in yourself, treatment can help you begin or reestablish recovery.

Signs of heroin addiction include:

• You’ve developed a tolerance for heroin, needing more of the drug to achieve the same initial effects.
• You get drug cravings that you can’t resist.
• You continue your heroin use despite the harm it causes.
• You spend a lot of time trying to get heroin, using the drug, and recovering from it.
• Your drug use has caused other risky behaviors, which may involve legal and health consequences.
  Using also affects your social life and your job status.

If your use is heavy, involves multiple drugs, or has been going on for a while, treatment is a matter of urgency. And if you’ve been to treatment before and relapsed, don’t give up hope. Many people in long-term recovery tread the same path.

Your treatment plan can be adjusted to help ensure your success, such as by making it last longer or including or adjusting heroin MAT services and other effective treatment approaches. This can make all the difference.
