Questions people ask about CHD

Is CHD residential or day treatment?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Springfield, about a mile away, if you want something to compare it against.

Does CHD offer a detox?

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of West Springfield offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Is there anything in West Springfield besides paid treatment?

West Springfield has 6 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Is medication assisted treatment available at CHD?

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

What else is near CHD?

Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Springfield.

What happens to the medication I already take?

Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Pregnancy changes medication decisions substantially and needs specialist input. Ask how soon after arrival you would see a prescriber.

Can I start outpatient and move up?

The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can walk through which level fits before you start ringing centers.

What do I need to pack for a residential program?

Documents and medication first. Everything else is a comfort question. Phones are allowed at some centers, restricted at others, and the rule is often different in the first week. Ask whether there is a laundry, because the answer halves what you need to bring.
