Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Desert Hope in Las Vegas understands that medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is an effective option in the cessation of drug or alcohol use for some people. Therefore, we utilize MAT in conjunction with behavioral therapy and other therapeutic interventions if the patient and their treatment team decide that medication could contribute to their overall recovery. MAT is not mandatory, but can prove extremely helpful for those aiming to stay sober for long periods of time.
Some requirements for the MAT program include:
- 1 year of high-dose opioid use.
- Commitment to a longer treatment stay (minimum 45-90 days under care).
- Involvement of a loved one in treatment with a full open release of information (ROI).
Veteran’s Affair Community Care Partner
Desert Hope Treatment Center is a VA Community Care Partner, meaning that we work 1-on-1 with veterans assigned by the U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Local VA to provide the most effective and customized treatment possible to those who serve (or served) our country.

Each patient or resident who has experienced discrimination may file a complaint with Department of Health and Human Services Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health (DPBH) and provide the contact notice for DPBH.
The Joint Commission for Behavioral Health Care
Desert Hope is accredited by The Joint Commission for Behavioral Health Care, an internationally recognized symbol of healthcare quality and the gold standard of care for the industry. This accreditation signifies that, through external, unbiased evaluation, we have met or exceeded The Joint Commission’s standards for providing addiction treatment for all of the levels of care offered at Desert Hope, American Addiction Centers’ Las Vegas addiction treatment center, including high acuity medical detox.
Communication
A loved one can only receive information about a patient if the patient signs a release of information for that individual.
Programming
Having a strong support network is vital in healing from addiction. Unfortunately, substance abuse can damage certain familial relationships and other relationships with loved ones. To begin healing those relationships damaged by addiction, Desert Hope offers a family day every other Saturday from 1:15 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The leader of this program invites patients and their families to partake in an interactive and educational discussion. After the family day programming ends, staff members offer an opportunity for patients and families to visit with one another.
Visiting Your Loved One
With patient consent, loved ones can visit patients every other Saturday, after the family day educational programming. During your loved one’s treatment, we can work with you to plan a visit to our Las Vegas rehab center. Your loved one’s treatment team will provide you with all of the information you need to schedule your visit.
Once you complete the detox process, your typical day in treatment will revolve around groups and classes. Treatment will vary according to the patient and the day, but the following is a sample of a typical schedule:
- 6:30 am–7:50 am: Breakfast
