You Don’t Have to Put Life on Hold to Get Better
Many people think that starting medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) means putting everything else — work, family, routine — on hold. But that’s far from true.
In fact, continuing your job or daily responsibilities during treatment can actually strengthen your recovery. At CORE Medical Clinic in Sacramento, we help patients find balance between getting healthy and staying engaged with life. With the right structure, support, and medication plan, you can keep moving forward — in more ways than one.
What Is MAT and Why Is It Different?
MAT (Medication-Assisted Treatment) combines FDA-approved medications like methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone with counseling and support. It's not about replacing one drug with another — it’s about giving your body the stability it needs to recover safely while minimizing withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
At CORE Medical Clinic, our MAT program helps patients:
- Manage opioid withdrawal symptoms
- Reduce the risk of relapse
- Regain mental clarity and focus
- Begin rebuilding daily structure and long-term goals
Yes, You Can Work While in MAT
Many of our patients in Sacramento are full-time workers, caregivers, or managing multiple life roles. Our MAT program is designed to fit into your life, not interrupt it. Here’s how:
✅ Flexible scheduling
We offer appointments that work around work shifts, classes, or parenting responsibilities.
✅ Improved focus and mood
Once stabilized on a treatment plan, many patients report they feel more mentally clear and emotionally balanced — which helps in both work and school environments.
✅ Discreet and confidential care
Your treatment is private. There’s no need to explain it to employers or professors unless you choose to.
✅ Support beyond medication
We provide help with time management, stress coping, and access to resources like housing, employment referrals, and academic support services.
