Welcome to our Medical Practice!

We are very proud to offer integrated care that focuses on involving the patient in their health care choices. The Community Health Center of Franklin County has two sites where you can receive your medical care, one located in Greenfield and another in Orange. We have built many partnerships and added additional services to our primary and pediatric care such as a Nutrition, Certified Diabetes Education, Sexual and Reproductive Health care and a Community Health Worker team and Recovery Coach on staff.

Medication-Assisted Treatments (MAT)

We offer full spectrum treatment options for all Substance Use Disorders, including Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), and Stimulant Use Disorder (SUD). All of our providers are trained in Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) and we have a nurse-run Outpatient Based Addiction Treatment (OBAT) program. We see MAT as a hugely important part of the recovery process for many people and we prescribe it with the intention of helping patients reduce chaotic drug use, decrease the risk of overdose, improve overall health outcomes, and preserve life. Our providers and nurses also work closely with our behavioral health department and with local service agencies to connect patients with resources like therapists, cases managers, and recovery coaches. We understand that SUD is a disease process that can involve relapses and high-risk behavior. We are committed to providing low barrier care for this complicated disease while also working to build intentional, therapeutic relationships with our patients.
 
The following options are available to our patients for MAT. Please call the health center for more information on any of these medications or to schedule an appointment with one of our providers.
 
 SUBOXONE® (buprenorphine and naloxone) Sublingual Film (CIII) is a prescription medicine used to treat patients aged 18 and older who are physically dependent on opioids. Suboxone has been shown to reduce opioid overdoses, increase time in treatment, and improve odds for long term recovery.
 
VIVITROL is a prescription medication that is administered in the office once a month. Vivitrol is used to treat both Opioid Use Disorder and Alcohol Use Disorder in patients older than 18. Vivitrol helps to reduce cravings for both alcohol and opioids but may not work for everyone.
 
We are very excited to offer a new medication for treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). SUBLOCADE is a once-monthly injectable medication for treatment of moderate-severe OUD. Sublocade provides a new MAT option for patients who may value the benefit of a once-monthly injection compared to other forms of buprenorphine, such as the burden of taking a daily medication by mouth. This treatment option is recommended for adult patients who started treatment with a buprenorphine containing product such as Suboxone and is indicated for patients who have been on a stable dose of buprenorphine for at least 7 days. CHCFC is currently the only outpatient practice offering Sublocade for the treatment of OUD and we are thrilled to be able to offer this medication for our patients.

 SUBOXONE® (buprenorphine and naloxone) 

SUBOXONE® (buprenorphine and naloxone) Sublingual Film (CIII) is a prescription medicine used to treat adults who are addicted to (dependent on) opioid drugs (either prescription or illegal) as part of a complete treatment program that also includes counseling and behavioral therapy.

Vivitrol

We began this program with a partnership with the Franklin County Sheriff's Office to provide on-going Vivitrol treatment in conjunction with primary care after release from jail.

VIVITROL is a non addictive prescription medication that is injectable once-monthly. This medication is used to treat alcohol dependence and prevent relapse to opioid dependence after opioid detox. Patients should stop drinking before starting VIVITROL. Patients also must stop taking opioids or other opioid-containing medications before starting VIVITROL. VIVITROL must be used with other alcohol or drug recovery programs such as counseling. VIVITROL may not work for everyone and has not been studied in children.
