Text Box: Narcotic Treatment Clinics Methadone is a synthetic narcotic used in the long-term stabilization of opiate addiction. The McLeod Center Opioid Treatment Program, staffed by a team of counselors and medical personnel, provides the client with a safe environment and medical and clinical counseling for the purpose of attaining a drug-free lifestyle. The goal of the McLeod Center Opioid Treatment Program is for the client to become stable within 60 days of entering the program. Dose levels during this period will be adjusted by the medical staff to create a safe stabilization. Addictive disease education, family counseling, individual and group counseling, urinalysis testing, and HIV/AIDS education and information are included in the program. Currently, McLeod Center doses in eight locations: Boone, Charlotte, Concord, Gastonia, Hickory, Marion, Monroe and Statesville. Admission Criteria Admissions are conducted on a walk-in basis. The admission process consists of the intake interview and clinical assessment, explanation of the fee policy, medical examination by a physician and laboratory testing to determine client’s suitability for methadone treatment. Methadone will not be dispensed until the entire admission process has been completed. Clients must have a photo ID and the fee in order to go through intake. All clinics accept Medicaid, and Medicaid clients must bring the Insurance Card as well.
