Ashley PennsylvaniaThe Basics

For more than five years, Miners Medical has been providing outpatient Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) using methadone. The facility also fills Suboxone prescriptions on Mondays. Miners Medical is located in Ashley, Pennsylvania, a small town near Wilkes Barre, in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Miners Medical is a member of the Pinnacle provider network, which operates a number of outpatient and residential facilities throughout Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Virginia, Ohio, Minnesota and Michigan.

Treatment and Staff

After clients are assessed, they receive a treatment plan that includes individual and group therapy in addition to MAT. Clients must attend an orientation session as soon as they’re admitted to the program, which addresses HIV prevention and the facility’s policies and procedures. In their first phase of treatment (usually lasting 90 days), most clients are required to attend one-on-one sessions and groups once a month, though it’s recommended they come more often. With successful attendance and clean drug screens, clients can step down therapy frequency.

The treatment team at Miners Medical includes Master’s-level counselors such as LPCs, LPNs and physicians. Counselors also help clients locate peer support meetings such as Methadone Anonymous and SMART Recovery if they think it would be helpful, and the clinic provides referrals to nearby mental health clinics for those needing dual diagnosis support. Groups use CBT and other evidence-based modalities to address early recovery issues, managing cravings and relapse prevention. There’s also a dedicated group for pregnant clients and a writing therapy group.

Miners Medical hopes that eventually all clients will not need MAT, and it works with them to create a treatment plan that culminates in tapering, if they desire. However, clients are not pressured to taper on any set time-line.

After clients have completed 90 days of treatment, they can begin applying for take-home doses of methadone.

Extras

Miners Medical encourages families to take part in treatment and welcomes them to attend individual therapy for family counseling.

In Summary

Miners Medical provides MAT with methadone and Suboxone to residents of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Therapy uses well-tested evidence-based practices as well as experiential processes including writing therapy. Minders Medical is known in the area for its compassionate atmosphere, and the treatment team ensures clients can locate the mental health treatment they need to have the best chance at flourishing in recovery.
