Questions people ask about Axis Health System
What treatment does Axis Health System offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Pagosa Springs is set up for.
Is detox part of what Axis Health System offers?
No. There is no detox listed near Pagosa Springs at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.
Which medications does Axis Health System prescribe?
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 Pagosa Springs.
Are there other centers near Axis Health System?
There is nothing else within 14 miles of Pagosa Springs, so the next option is a longer drive.
Can Axis Health System handle a court referral?
They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Pagosa Springs send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.
Do I have to stop my prescriptions?
Existing prescriptions are normally continued, and they are reviewed by whoever is prescribing at the program. A pain condition does not disappear during treatment and should be part of the conversation from the start. Take the labeled containers rather than a week of loose pills in an organizer.
How long would I be in a program?
It depends which level of care you are asking about, because they run on different clocks. Stepping down through levels of care takes longer in total and tends to hold better than one intensive block alone. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Keep a copy of everything you send and every date you were given.
