Questions people ask about Caroline County Health Department
What programs does Caroline County Health Department offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Federalsburg is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Caroline County Health Department offers?
No detox, here or anywhere listed within 14 miles of Denton. Ask whether they will take somebody straight after a detox done elsewhere, because most will.
Is there anything in Denton besides paid treatment?
Denton has 4 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Denton.
Can Caroline County Health Department handle a court referral?
They take court referrals, so a program ordered by a court in Denton is something they handle.
How does medication fit into treatment?
It is a prescription that steadies the ground while the rest of the treatment happens. The evidence for medication in opioid use disorder is strong enough that its absence from a program is worth asking about. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.
Does my employer find out?
A treatment program cannot confirm to a caller that you are there without your written permission. A release of information is how that changes, it is signed by you, and it can name one person and one purpose. Read what you sign at intake, because the release is in that stack.
Is there a waiting list?
Availability changes week to week, which is why no listing page can tell you. The longest lists tend to sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
