Crosspoint motivation center

Crosspoint is De Hoop's motivation center. People who are addicted and want to become motivated to follow treatment at De Hoop or somewhere else are eligible for admission to Crosspoint. Crosspoint offers 24-hour care and can accommodate fifteen persons. For people who are addicted to opiates, it is possible to follow a detoxification program, during which methadone use is reduced.

Crosspoint helps people who:

Are addicted
Are approachable
Are willing to sign a living contract including house rules
Have health insurance
Have no predominant psychiatric problems

Crosspoint may also be suitable for people who have judicial problems, cause trouble in their living environment or who are eligible for emergency admission.

Please note that De Hoop looks at each situation individually in order to decide whether De Hoop is able to provide the care necessary or whether De Hoop has to refer the client to another institution or clinic.

Aim
Admission to Crosspoint is aimed at becoming motivated for further treatment and/or abstinence.

Treatment program
Clients admitted to Crosspoint follow a detoxification program. If they are addicted to opiates, it is possible to be administered with methadone. Reduction of methadone use is started immediately. Clients are educated about admission to De Hoop's therapeutic centers or other addiction care facilities. During their stay at Crosspoint, clients may not leave the premises without a counselor.

Clients rebuild a healthy day and night structure. Once a week, they work on a farm. In addition, household duties must be performed. Physical exercise is also an important part of the program. Clients walk a lot, for instance. Creative therapy is possible too. Clients have sessions with their personal counselor and Crosspoint's psychologist. Furthermore, clients have group discussions on certain topics and will be kept abreast of current events. Smoking is allowed at Crosspoint, albeit in a separate space.

There is a medical consultation hour.

Duration
Maximum stay is three months.

Intramural
