If you need help for a substance use problem, please call us at this number. 843-365-8884
We have all been impacted by COVID-19 in some way or another. Whether it is the way you shop for groceries, send your kids to school or go to work, the way we do life is different. Anxiety and frustration are at an all-time high and we want you to know that Shoreline is open and here for you. Our staff have been wonderful and have been creative in the ways that they are reaching our clients. We continue to see clients daily through either telehealth or in-person appointments. If you or someone you care about are suffering from a substance use disorder, please call us at 843-365-8884 and we will arrange for you to receive services.
Due to the decrease in cases in Horry County and throughout South Carolina we have relaxed our mask policy and they are now optional when you enter the building. Cleaning of high traffic areas is still a priority for us and all offices are equipped with hand sanitizer. The floor markers are still in place and we do ask that social distancing be maintained as much as possible. We have opened group sessions to smaller numbers and we are having success with those! Our number one priority is the safety of the clients we serve and our employees so we reserve the right to reinstate any COVID related protocols if deemed necessary by health officials, but we are hopeful that the worst is behind us. If you or someone you know has a substance use disorder, please call us today. You are not alone. We can help!
Clients on Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) are a special priority for us because of the risk of accidental death due to overdose. Any client in need of medication in order to help with withdrawal from opioid drugs, please call us immediately. Shoreline continues to encourage anyone in need of Narcan to contact our office. Narcan is a lifesaving drug that can help reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. Please call our office to find out how you can get Narcan. 843-365-8884
