| New Opiate Withdrawal Services using Buprenorphine (Certified Physician) |
Buprenorphine, or Suboxone, is the most recent treatment for Opiate or Synthetic Opiate withdrawal. It helps reduce symptoms of craving and discomfort while you come off Hydrocodone, Vicadin, Oxycontin, Fentanyl patches, Lortabs, Heroin and all other opiates. Dr. Joseph Meyer of the Littlefork Medical Center is certified to administer this medication. Pineview offers a comprehensive approach to opiate withdrawal, combining the medicinal treatment with cognitive therapy. We also help clients develop support systems by providing 12-Step groups on the premises! Out-patient services using the Suboxone are also available through the Littlefork Medical Center Clinic.

| Family Services |
Pineview Recovery Center acknowledges the need for alignment of each client’s recovery environment. Our families are deeply aggrieved and impacted by dependency and the often buried rage it causes. Pineview offers ongoing support to families to help them realize Chemical Dependency IS a family illness. Family members are urged to sit down with the counselor to discuss resentments, future plans and obstacles to recovery. |
