Questions people ask about Behavioral Health Specialists Inc
Is Behavioral Health Specialists Inc residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Pender is set up for.
Is detox part of what Behavioral Health Specialists Inc offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Pender offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Do I have to come in person to Behavioral Health Specialists Inc?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Pender often still has to be in person.
What is there in Pender that costs nothing?
Pender has 2 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Does Behavioral Health Specialists Inc prescribe medication for opioid use?
They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Pender.
Is a dual diagnosis treated in one place?
It is normal, it has a name, and there are programs built specifically for it. Psychiatric medication and treatment medication can usually be managed together by the same team. Ask what happens if the psychiatric side turns out to need more than the program planned for.
What does the first conversation cover?
Somebody works through a short list: the substance, the amount, the history, the insurance. Having your insurance card in front of you shortens the whole thing considerably. Ask what the assessment after this call involves and whether it happens in person.
Which level of care do I need?
Outpatient keeps work, school and family going. Inpatient pauses them. People commonly start higher and step down, rather than choosing one level and staying there. Be honest about what is around you at home. It changes the recommendation.
