The opioid epidemic has deeply impacted communities across Maryland, leaving many families searching for help. If you or someone you love is looking for opioid addiction treatment in Maryland, know that recovery is possible with the right care.
At Hygea Healthcare’s Middle River facility, we provide both medical detox and residential treatment to help patients break free from opioid dependence and build a sustainable path forward.
Why Opioid Detox Is Critical
Opioids — including prescription painkillers, heroin, and fentanyl — cause powerful physical dependence. Stopping suddenly can trigger withdrawal symptoms such as:
Intense cravings
Muscle aches and restlessness
Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
Anxiety, depression, and insomnia
While opioid withdrawal is rarely life-threatening, it can be extremely difficult to manage alone. That’s why professional medical detox is the safest first step.
At Hygea, our detox program includes:
24/7 medical monitoring.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to reduce withdrawal discomfort.
Emotional support during the hardest days of early recovery.
The Importance of Residential Treatment
Detox alone does not equal recovery. Once the body is cleared of opioids, patients need structured care to address the psychological and behavioral aspects of drug addiction.
Hygea’s residential program provides:
Individual and group therapy.
Relapse prevention strategies.
Education about triggers and coping skills.
Support for co-occurring mental health conditions.
This combination of detox and inpatient treatment gives patients the strongest chance at lasting sobriety.
Why Maryland Families Trust Local Care
Choosing treatment in Maryland offers benefits such as:
Family involvement through therapy and visitation.
Continuity of care with local outpatient programs after residential treatment.
Accessibility — no need to travel far from home during a vulnerable time.
At Hygea, we partner with Maryland’s local healthcare network to ensure seamless transitions from inpatient care into community-based recovery support.
