Questions people ask about 12 South Recovery
Is 12 South Recovery residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Lake Forest is set up for.
Is detox part of what 12 South Recovery offers?
They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Mission Viejo is the nearest place that does it, 2.5 miles away.
Is there a pregnancy program at 12 South Recovery?
They treat pregnant and postpartum clients. Ask whether prenatal care is on site or coordinated with somewhere else in Lake Forest.
Does 12 South Recovery prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Lake Forest offers both.
Does 12 South Recovery treat older adults?
They treat seniors. Interactions with the medications an older adult is already taking are the usual reason it matters, so ask who reviews them in Lake Forest.
What is different about mandated treatment?
The order sets the reporting. The clinical side is decided the same way it is for anyone. A deadline inside an order is easier to meet when the program hears about it on the first call. Ask who signs the completion paperwork and how long it takes.
What are the usual program lengths?
The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. Outpatient programs often involve three to five sessions a week at first, then taper to one. Ask what the longest and the shortest version of this program looks like.
Is a second attempt treated differently?
Going back into treatment is normal, and most centers treat people who have been through it before. What was learned the first time usually shapes a better plan the second. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
