SAMHSA Certified Opioid Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Crawley, WV.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency responsible for efforts to advance the mental health of the U.S.. One of its responsibilities is the supervision of opioid rehabilitation facilities, which are programs which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are in the midst of opioid addiction and dependency. Medicine administered are drugs such as methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehabilitation facilities in Crawley are programs which are officially allowed to give out the medications used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. One of these requirements is that MAT clients must also receive auxiliary benefits in addition to medication such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.

An opioid rehab facility can get their initial certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, however, are required to get their full accreditation in a year. Opioid treatment programs authorized by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment facility is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years depending on the kind of certification it has been granted.
