Rumford Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), located in Rumford, Maine, offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for adults age 18 and older who are suffering from addictions to prescription painkillers, heroin, and other opioids. MAT combines prescription medication and counseling to comprehensively treat opioid use disorder and help patients achieve long-term recovery. MAT is widely supported as an effective treatment approach by respected organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The prescription medications used in MAT can ease the distressing symptoms of opioid withdrawal, allowing patients to focus on their therapeutic goals. Every patient who receives MAT at our treatment center also participates in individual and group counseling sessions. These sessions are designed to help patients better understand addiction and learn relapse prevention strategies that can help them thrive.
