Liberation Programs Inc - Bridgeport MAT

They are set up for 1 level: outpatient. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Bridgeport, 2 offer a bed.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Bridgeport offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They prescribe methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Bridgeport offers both.

They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult men, adult women, court referrals, hiv/aids, lgbtq, military families, pain management, past sexual abuse, past trauma, pregnant/postpartum and veterans.

They take court referrals, so a program ordered by a court in Bridgeport is something they handle.

Most of recovery happens after the program, which is an awkward fact for anyone selling programs. A recurrence in the first month is common, and a plan that anticipates it is worth more than one that does not. Ask whether the center keeps treating you afterwards or hands you on.

Someone will want to know how recently you used, because that decides whether detox comes first. The call can end with nothing booked, and often does. Ask what the assessment after this call involves and whether it happens in person.

It depends which level of care you are asking about, because they run on different clocks. Stepping down through levels of care takes longer in total and tends to hold better than one intensive block alone. Ask what the program length is and what happens if more time is needed.
