The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department in charge of health efforts to promote the mental health of the United States. One of its duties is the oversight of opioid treatment facilities, which are centers which provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are in the midst of opioid addiction and dependency. Drug prescribed are drugs like methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which stop curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehabilitation centers in Glen Gardner are programs that are officially permitted 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 services aside from medication such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid treatment center can get their basic certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment programs accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehabilitation center is certified, it must be re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the kind of certification that was given.
