Accessing Services

Clients may self-refer or be referred by a community physician, hospital or community support via walk-in, phone or fax.  Involvement in the program is voluntary. 

Clients are assessed for admission by an addiction counsellor, after which a referral may be made to the methadone prescribing physician.

Who Do We Serve?

The Methadone Assisted Recovery service is an adult based service.  Youth involvement is at the discretion of the physician. 

The criteria for referral is opioid addiction and dependency. 

Methadone is a daily dispensed medication to prevent withdrawal and craving for opioid's.  It is used together with counselling for people unable to detoxify and recover through conventional resources such as detox centres, treatment centres, 12-step meetings, etc.  Clients must have previously attempted to abstain from opioid's (e.g. morphine, dilaudid) with or without assistance.
