At Duncansville Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), located in Duncansville, Pennsylvania, we are committed to providing lifesaving services for those in our local community who are addicted to prescription painkillers, heroin, and other opioids. By providing medication-assisted treatment (MAT), we can help people in our care end opioid use safely and chart a path to a healthier future. MAT is a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to opioid addiction treatment that combines therapy and medication to address the needs of the whole person. In our MAT program, patients can benefit from both individual and group counseling sessions that are led by qualified therapists. Patients also receive prescription medication to curb the physical symptoms of opioid withdrawal. Research has found that MAT can yield positive health outcomes and significantly reduce a person’s risk for relapse.
