Questions people ask about Aroostook Mental Health Center
What levels of care does Aroostook Mental Health Center offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Fort Kent, 13 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.
Does Aroostook Mental Health Center offer a detox?
They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Madawaska does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Aroostook Mental Health Center?
They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Madawaska about a teenager is in the right place.
Are there free support meetings in Madawaska?
Madawaska has 1 AA group, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Who are the programs at Aroostook Mental Health Center built for?
One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 13 named here.
Does court ordered treatment work the same way?
Most of the programs listed here take mandated clients. What gets reported is normally attendance rather than anything said in a session. Keep your own dated attendance record alongside whatever the program keeps.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
They normally continue, and a prescriber at the program reviews the whole list on arrival. Anything needing a blood test or a monthly injection has to be scheduled around the program, which is easier arranged before admission. Ask who to speak to if something needs changing mid program.
Is methadone treatment on its own?
For many people the medication is what makes the rest of the treatment possible, rather than a replacement for it. Methadone is dispensed under rules of its own, often daily at first, which is a practical difference rather than a medical one. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.
