Getting Started
Your journey of recovery starts with a phone call to Marion
County Treatment Center (205-921-3799 or by stopping by the
facility to make an appointment. All meetings, interviews,
and other communication between treatment professionals and
the patients are strictly confidential so you can get all
the facts to see if methadone treatment is right for you.
The First Step
The initial visit is a screening so that specialists can determine
if the client is a candidate for treatment.
The next step is to schedule an appointment with the medical
director.
Once the patient is admitted, the staff performs a triage
to get the patient's Drug History, PsycoSocial and family
histories, the legal history and the resulting output of this
session will be a comprehensive assessment of the patient's
life.
The Next Step
The patient is then assigned a counselor that will help them
navigate the treatment process.
The counselor will provide:
- individual one-on-one sessions
- Family counseling
- They make recommendations for
additional counseling if necessary. These could be in the
form of referrals to other healthcare professionals, legal
assistance or other resources.
Marion County Treatment Centers work to meet the patient's
Emotional, Psychological, Physical and Spiritual needs. "Our
facilities are a safe place to fall after life has beaten
them down."
