Bridge Behavioral Health

They offer inpatient residential, inpatient hospital and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Lincoln has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They provide detox for 5 substances: opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Whether a bed is free this week is a question for the call, and Lincoln has 8 other centers.

One of their programs is built for adult men, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is the only one named here.

Lincoln has 104 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Lincoln, not all of them do.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Lincoln has 8 other centers to try.

Involvement is common, and so are limits on it, set by the person being treated. 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 what exists for a relative who is not ready to sit in a room with the person using.

It is a set of questions about what is being used, your health, and what you are covered for. Medical history matters here: seizures, pregnancy, heart problems and current prescriptions all change the plan. Ask for the name of whoever you spoke to, so the second call starts where the first ended.
