About Family Healthcare Center at SSTAR
Family Healthcare Center at SSTAR is a primary care health center in Fall River, Massachusetts, run by SSTAR, an organization that has served the Fall River community since 1977. They combine everyday medical care with outpatient treatment for substance use disorders, so patients can address opioid or alcohol use alongside their overall physical and mental health in one place. Their stated policy is to accept everyone without judgment, and staff can help with practical barriers such as paperwork, language translation, and rides home.
The center’s Medication for Addiction Treatment (MAT) program, running since 2004, pairs FDA-approved medications with support from a team of physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, social workers, and recovery coaches. Options include buprenorphine (Suboxone, Zubsolv, or the monthly Sublocade injection) and naltrexone, taken as daily tablets or as the monthly Vivitrol shot. Many patients can get a prescription the same day, and a walk-in Bridge Clinic operates on weekday mornings and early afternoons for those who want to start right away. Visits typically begin weekly for about eight weeks before tapering to every other week and then monthly, and people who need a higher level of care can connect with SSTAR’s inpatient detox and its 30-bed, gender-separate residential unit, one of the few programs in the state that stabilizes pregnant patients from opioids.
