New Buprenex Opiate Assisted Withdrawal protocol to help addicts with pain free detox is offered by Support Systems Homes, Inc. This new method is now helping opiate addicts find freedom from drug addiction and to better enable them to develop new life skills while undergoing treatment without the burden of a painful and long detox from drugs.

Support Systems Homes, Inc recently added a unique inpatient protocol that practically eliminates the symptoms of opiate detox withdrawal. The innovative approach has been highly praised for its success at treating the severe and debilitating withdrawal symptoms of opiate detox.

The protocol makes drug rehabilitation more easy, effective and affordable for substance abusers and their families. And it is consistent with the company's efforts to provide caring, comprehensive and cost-effective rehabilitation for addicts and alcoholics.

"We are different from most buprenorphine clinics in that we deter our clients from maintenance use of buprenorphine derivatives and encourage a short detox period utilizing Buprenex, which makes the symptoms of opiate withdrawal virtually nonexistent, followed by peer support, counseling and inpatient 30-day treatment to be followed by aftercare, including outpatient counseling," explained Susan Levy, Director of Admissions for Support Systems Homes.

A leader in the substance abuse industry, Support Systems Homes, provides a broad continuum of care for individuals seeking treatment for alcohol and drug dependency issues. "By offering many levels of treatment in our continuum of care-from drug and alcohol detox, Buprenex opiate detox, residential rehabilitation, outpatient and day treatment to sober living all under the same roof-we can better help those seeking treatment from the critical care stage through transitional living and better enable them to successfully quit drugs and alcohol," stated Laurie Palomo, Clinical Director of the San Jose Residential Treatment Center for Support Systems Homes.

Support Systems Homes was founded in 1991 by Bob Norton and Andy Lujan, both of whom are in recovery. Both are dedicated to the process of recovery and have spent years actively involved in supporting California communities through outreach, education and involvement in 12 step programs.

"The company is run by people who have been where our clients are and who genuinely care about their recovery," Palomo said. "With our expert clinical staff, our Medical Director, Dr. Robert Daigle, Addictionologist and fellow of The American Society of Addiction Medicine and our caring team of counselors and nurses, we are able to both provide the best in clinical treatment for substance abuse and have the ability to empathize with clients and their families struggle with addiction."
