The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency in charge of health efforts to advance the mental health of the nation. One of its duties is the administering of opioid rehabilitation facilities, which are centers who provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medications prescribed are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Mattapoisett are programs who are legally permitted to dispense the medications used in MAT being they maintain their certification and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get ancillary benefits aside from medicine such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid rehab center can get their basic approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment 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 through a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment facility is certified, it must be re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the type of accreditation that was granted.
