Questions people ask about 820 River Street Inc
What levels of care does 820 River Street Inc offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Albany, 2 offer a bed.
Is detox part of what 820 River Street Inc offers?
They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Albany does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.
What is there in Albany that costs nothing?
Albany has 27 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Can I do this by video instead?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Albany differ on it.
Is medication assisted treatment available at 820 River Street Inc?
They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Albany.
Can 820 River Street Inc handle a court referral?
They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Albany has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.
Is treatment expensive?
It ranges from nothing at all, in a state funded program, to figures that need a payment plan. Many centers will spread a balance over months, and those terms are negotiable more often than people assume. It is worth asking about a sliding scale even where nothing is advertised.
Is what I say in a session confidential?
A program needs your signature before it discusses you with anyone at all. A release of information is how that changes, it is signed by you, and it can name one person and one purpose. Ask for a copy of any release you sign, and read what it covers.
