Metro Treatment of Kentucky LP

About Metro Treatment of Kentucky LP

Metro Treatment of Kentucky in Covington, KY, is part of New Season, a national network of outpatient opioid treatment programs that has focused on opioid use disorder since 1986. They treat addiction to heroin and prescription painkillers by pairing medication-assisted treatment with counseling, and they treat addiction as a disease that responds to ongoing care. Care centers on outpatient MAT, and an intensive outpatient program is available for people who need more structure. Medicare, Medicaid, and most commercial insurance plans are accepted.

A physician helps each patient choose between methadone, buprenorphine, and Suboxone to ease withdrawal and cravings, with individual, group, and family counseling alongside the medication. The intensive outpatient program meets three times a week for three hours over at least six weeks, and it covers wellness, recovery, and resiliency education, weekly family sessions, coping skills, and trigger awareness. Once patients reach a stable dose, they may qualify for take-home doses and for video counseling and medical visits that cut down on trips to the clinic. The network also links patients with practical help for housing, employment, food, transportation, phone access, and peer recovery support.
