Kaiser Permanente North Lancaster Medical Office Claimed

About Kaiser Permanente North Lancaster Medical Office

Based in Salem, Oregon, Kaiser Permanente North Lancaster Medical Office is a pharmacy, urgent care and health facility that offers addiction treatment to adults aged 18 and older and their families, including LGBTQIA+ folk. Those with concurrent mental health conditions can also receive treatment here. In terms of payment, they accept Medicaid and Senior Advantage.

Clients here will initially undergo assessments for their addiction and behavioral issues. After this, they will be given a unique treatment plan, which may include detox services, group, family, or individual therapy and addiction education.

Detox can be done from home with the support of a medical team, or as an outpatient service. More intensive treatment options can be made available on request either at the hospital or a residential center. This is a very important stage of the recovery journey and can feature some pretty uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms and cravings. With this in mind, clients should try and choose the option they feel most comfortable with for their recovery.

Therapy features pretty heavily in addiction recovery at this facility. The team here will recommend one or a few options as part of clients’ treatment plans, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, and others. 12-step or similar support program options are also available to provide individuals with peer support and a sense of community.

Short and long-term medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is also available as a relapse prevention method, and to help clients manage withdrawal symptoms. Clients may be prescribed buprenorphine (Subutex) to treat opiate cravings and shorten the length of their detox. For long-term MAT, clients may be prescribed buprenorphine instead of methadone.
