ABOUT CROSSROADS TREATMENT CENTER — SENECA, SC
Crossroads Treatment Centers operates 21 opioid addiction treatment facilities around the United States, including in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, Texas, and Colorado. Each center offers outpatient medication-assisted treatment (MAT), making this particular facility one of just 26 (22.8%) in South Carolina to provide this type of care, alongside counseling services.
This facility is located adjacent to a series of big-box stores toward the northwest of the small city of Seneca, in northwestern South Carolina.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
In South Carolina, 0.26% of all individuals ages 18 and over have used heroin in the past year. Although other Crossroads facilities are licensed to prescribe Suboxone (only available at only 31 facilities in the state), the website for the Seneca facility indicates that the center provides methadone only, in an MAT program designed to address the biological, psychological, and social effects of substance abuse. The organization’s website indicates that clients begin with a regular dose sufficient to ease the signs of withdrawal, and ultimately taper off the medication, once they’ve established some sober time and a support system.
In addition to medication, each client also has access to unlimited counseling, like 113 other substance abuse facilities in the state, which covers topics such as developing recovery skills and relapse-prevention strategies, a feature of 113 South Carolina treatment centers. The center offers support with some of the difficulties that often accompany addiction as well, such as finances, employment, and repairing relationships.
