Questions people ask about Area Substance Abuse Council
Is Area Substance Abuse Council residential or day treatment?
They provide inpatient residential, which is the whole of what this address in Clinton is set up for.
Is detox part of what Area Substance Abuse Council offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Clinton offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Area Substance Abuse Council treat teenagers?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Clinton.
Does Area Substance Abuse Council treat people who are pregnant?
They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Clinton may not have a second place set up for it.
Which medications does Area Substance Abuse Council prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Clinton.
Is treatment available in a language other than English?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Clinton does.
Can depression be treated at the same time?
Both at once is the common case, and treating only one of them is why some first attempts come apart. Not every center has a prescriber for psychiatric medication, and that is a concrete difference to ask about. If trauma is part of this, ask what specific therapy they offer for it.
Can family be involved in treatment?
There is a role, and it is a bigger one than most people expect going in. What a center can tell a family member is limited by privacy law, and that limit holds even for a parent of an adult. Ask about the release of information early, because without it the updates stop.
