Is Central East Alc and Drug Council inpatient or outpatient?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 7 centers within 14 miles of Charleston, 2 offer a bed.

No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is about a mile away in Charleston.
Are remote sessions an option at Central East Alc and Drug Council?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Charleston.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Central East Alc and Drug Council?
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 Charleston.
Is there anything in Charleston besides paid treatment?
Charleston has 13 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
What special programs does Central East Alc and Drug Council offer?
They offer a program for adult women, which not every center around Charleston does.
Who has access to my records?
Confidentiality here is unusually strong by law, and that is a different thing from nobody noticing. The strength of the rule exists because people avoided treatment when they could not rely on it. Ask for a copy of any release you sign, and read what it covers.
What is not allowed?
Think documents and medication first, comforts second. Arrival normally involves a bag search, and the list of what is not allowed is longer than people expect. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
