Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

Set in the inner Bay Area, John Muir Health offers detox, residential, day, and intensive outpatient (IOP) care for adults with alcohol or drug addiction. They admit clients voluntarily and involuntarily, and they provide as much flexibility to roam during the stay as possible. Their psychiatric team works with outside medical providers, and they can optionally bring in a chaplain. Their treatments for certain drugs, particularly opioids, includes the use of medications like Suboxone to help reduce cravings. John Muir attests the disease model of addiction, and they treat addiction in a compassionate manner similar to other conditions they care for at their hospitals. John Muir Health's chemical dependency program (also known as their addiction medicine recovery services) treats clients with addictions to alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, crack cocaine, ecstasy, GHB, methamphetamine, nicotine, opioids, prescription drugs like Valium and OxyContin, and more drugs. They also have related programs for mental health conditions, and they can treat co-occurring mental health disorders for clients with substance use disorders. Clients can download MyChart to track their care notes during and after treatment, as well as to pay for care. John Muir posts good-faith estimates through MyChart and allows clients to contest bills that are $400+ more than expected.
