PORT Health Services - Greenville Clinic

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Greenville has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is under a mile away in Greenville.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Greenville.

They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Greenville has the nearest beds, under a mile away.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Greenville are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

Aftercare is the step down: less intensive, longer lasting, and often the difference that lasts. The first weeks back carry the highest risk, so what is booked for them matters more than the program length. Ask to see what a discharge plan looks like before you choose the program.

Dual diagnosis means both are present, and treating them together is the current standard of care. Trauma focused therapy is offered by some programs and not others, and it is a specific skill rather than a general one. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.

It is a screening conversation: what is being used, how much, your health, and what you are covered for. If you have been through treatment before, what did not work is useful information rather than a mark against you. Have your insurance card and a list of medications next to you.
