Admission – Drug, Alcoholism, Chemical Dependency Treatment

It takes courage to make that first phone call to ask for help. Our promise is that you will be treated with respect and understanding from the start. The Intake Coordinator will take time with you on the phone, answering your questions so you can make informed choices about treatment. Staff are available 24 hours to talk to you and begin the process.

We know you may be concerned about health care costs. As part of our services, we contact your insurance carrier and determine the coverage of your particular plan. With this information, we can give you our best estimate of your share of the costs. We accept many types of health insurance, and we offer competitive pricing for private pay clients.

Once you’ve made the decision to enter treatment, we’ll provide you a list of what to pack. If you need transportation to our campus, we can help with making arrangements. When you arrive, we’ll assist with the necessary forms, provide a facility orientation, and assign a “buddy” who will guide you through your first few days. Our trained staff will monitor your progress throughout your stay. Special monitoring is provided for the detoxification process.

As California recognizes residential treatment as treatment for an illness, you may be eligible for benefits during your treatment stay. The Intake Coordinator can also assist with the completion of State Disability forms.

MEDICALLY ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT)

The California Department of Health Care Service requires all licensed treatment facilities to provide medication assisted treatment, more commonly known as maintenance medications. Medically Assisted Treatment ( MAT) is the use of FDA approved prescription medications to provide a whole-person approach to the treatment of specific substance use disorders (SUD). Campobello does not deny admission or discharge of any individual based solely on the client having a valid prescription or in need of medication approved by the FDA for the purpose of medication assisted treatment for a substance use disorder.

MAT medications include but may not be limited to: Acamprosate, Buprenorphine products, Disulfiram, Methadone and Naltrexone.

MAT clients who are maintained on methadone, Suboxone, buprenorphine or other MAT medications, will be supported in their dosing with take-home doses.

Clients will take medication under the observation of trained staff. Staff are trained for observation of client self-administration. The staff and client will be educated regarding all aspects of the process required for the safe self-administration of medication. Clients will self-administer their medication as directed in the presence of and under the direct supervision of the qualified staff on duty.
