CHC of Cape Cod Now Offers Medicated-Assisted Treatment Program

MASHPEE – The Community Health Center of Cape Cod is now offering a Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) program to the public.

All individuals can participate even if they are not a registered patient of CHC of Cape Cod.

Since 2010, the Health Center has offered an office based opioid treatment program, and the overwhelming current need in the community has led to a significant expansion of this program.

The MAT program at the Health Center involves the use of Suboxone or Vivitrol to treat individuals with substance use disorders.

Participants in the MAT program at CHC of Cape Cod will be cared for in a safe and empowering environment, development of an integrated treatment plan, access to comprehensive services at CHC, personalized pathways to recovery through consistent guidance and Medication-Assisted Treatments.

During weekly visits with a combination of certified physicians, registered nurses, behavioral health clinicians and support staff, the CHC team will assist patients with their recovery, supporting them both physically and emotionally.

Medication-Assisted Treatment services are available at all three CHC of Cape Cod locations in Mashpee, Falmouth and Bourne.
