About Addiction Recov Med Servs (ARMS)
Addiction Recovery Medical Services, known locally as ARMS, has anchored opioid recovery in Iredell County from its main campus at 536 Signal Hill Drive Extension in Statesville, North Carolina, with a second clinic at 31 East Main Avenue in Taylorsville. The program is CARF-accredited and certified by SAMHSA as an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP), allowing it to dispense methadone alongside buprenorphine within a fully regulated clinical setting.
ARMS operates as a daily outpatient program built around medication-assisted treatment. Patients work with a multidisciplinary medical and mental health team to manage opioid use disorder, alcohol dependence, and tobacco use, with ongoing supports for co-occurring trauma and mental health concerns. Services include medically monitored opioid detoxification, person-centered treatment planning, individual counseling, group therapy, urine drug confirmation analysis, breathalyzer testing, tobacco cessation education, and an after-hours answering service that supports continuity of care.
The program describes itself as faith-based and frames its work as a ministry that meets people where they are. Walk-in intake is offered Monday through Friday so that prospective patients can complete an assessment, meet with a medical provider, and begin appropriate dosing the same day. Dosing hours start early to accommodate work schedules, and an after-hours crisis line is staffed for urgent needs.
ARMS serves a broad cross-section of Iredell and Alexander County residents, including veterans, pregnant women, young adults, older adults, men, women, court-ordered clients, and individuals living with HIV/AIDS. The clinic accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay, and works with referring agencies and the courts to coordinate care across systems.
