Questions people ask about Boston Medical Center - Office Based Addiction Treatment Progr

What levels of care does Boston Medical Center - Office Based Addiction Treatment Progr offer?

They provide outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Roxbury is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does Boston Medical Center - Office Based Addiction Treatment Progr offer a detox?

They detox from opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and 2 of the 8 centers near Boston offer one at all.

Are there free support meetings in Boston?

Alongside this, Boston has 15 NA meetings and 116 free AA meetings.

Is there anywhere else close by?

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Roxbury.

Is Boston Medical Center - Office Based Addiction Treatment Progr an option for someone under 18?

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 Boston.

Can I do this by video instead?

They do video appointments, which matters if Boston is a drive for you.

Is what I say in a session confidential?

The rule covers the first phone call too, before you are a patient and whether or not you ever become one. An authorization carries an end date and stops when that date passes, rather than running on indefinitely. Ask whether messages can be left for you and who is allowed to leave them.

Does a return to use mean treatment did not work?

Coming back after a return to use is one of the most ordinary things an intake line hears. A return to use that followed a move, a job loss or a death is a different problem from one with no obvious trigger. Say what happened last time, because it is the most useful thing you can tell an intake worker.
