Our belief at UCS is that medication used in MAT to treat addiction is much like medication for other illnesses. Reducing the cravings and withdrawal symptoms through MAT often allows our patients to lead more productive life. Such as working, spending time with family and friends, and performing the tasks of daily life – while engaging in counseling to address all their needs as they move toward recovery.
We offer priority admission and specialized services for pregnant women entering MAT services. MAT medications are safe for pregnant women and their unborn fetuses. Women can experience normal pregnancies, give birth, and raise healthy children while receiving MAT treatment. You must receive prenatal care.
