SAMHSA Certified Opioid Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Pleasant Valley, NY.

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 United States. One of its responsibilities is the oversight of opioid rehab programs, which are centers that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Drug administered are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Pleasant Valley are programs which are legally allowed to give out the medications used in MAT as long as they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT individuals must also get auxiliary services in addition to medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid rehab program can get their initial approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehab program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the kind of certification it has been granted.
