Worcester addiction and recovery treatment provider Spectrum Health Systems has opened two new outpatient treatment centers in Millbury and Weymouth.
In addition, the company’s outpatient treatment program in Pittsfield moved to a larger facility, the company announced Tuesday.
The company announced the plans for the 5,000-square-foot Millbury site last fall and it opened in July. The Weymouth facility opened in August.
In the past three years, Spectrum has opened four outpatient treatment centers in Leominster, Haverhill, North Adams and Saugus. A new inpatient detox program is now available in Weymouth.
Opioid-related deaths are slowing, but there was still an estimated 2,107 opioid overdose related deaths, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
Treatment services to combat those alarming statistics are still lacking, said Spectrum CEO Kurt Isaacson.
“These expansions will offer new and convenient options to hundreds of people, and we will continue to fight to bring people struggling with substance use disorders the help they need,” he said in a press release.
