About Lifeline Connections

Lifeline Connections in Vancouver, WA is a safe, effective outpatient program for individuals in need of detox. This facility offers every patient a customized treatment plan determined by the patient and the medical staff together. The program is also a part of the Lifeline Connections network, through which patients can receive referrals to a number of other programs for recovery.

The staff at this facility wants to help patients detox safely and transition into addiction treatment afterward. The goal of the staff is to make sure patients are able to improve their lives as well as become and stay sober.

This facility offers the standard treatment options for detox, including medication and therapy, as well as a number of other amenities and options. Patients can expect to receive referrals to other programs for their treatment needs, especially those in the Lifeline Connections network.

Recovering individuals who are still going through detox—or are still intoxicated–can gain help and succeed by seeking treatment at this facility. In addition, this program is highly focused on helping individuals transition into aftercare and/or addiction treatment once detox has ended. If this seems like a positive choice for your needs, this program may be the right fit for you.

Treatment Options

Treatment at Lifeline Connections for detox is typical of most outpatient facilities. It usually includes

Medications

Buprenorphine (Suboxone) is often used to manage patients’ opioid-based withdrawal symptoms. Patients are then weaned off the drug or maintained on it depending on their specific needs.

Naltrexone (Vivitrol) is sometimes prescribed to patients after their opioid withdrawal symptoms have subsided in order to help them avoid relapse.

Other medications may be prescribed to treat withdrawal and/or treat co-occurring mental disorders.

Behavioral therapy

Different behavioral therapy sessions are utilized for different patients, but usually, the program consists of both individualized and group therapy.

Patients can expect to meet in a group session one, two, or three times a week. There is also a monthly group session.
