Questions people ask about Clean and Sober Streets
Which levels of care does Clean and Sober Streets have?
They offer inpatient residential. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Washington has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what Clean and Sober Streets offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Washington, about a mile away.
Is Clean and Sober Streets an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Washington.
What special programs does Clean and Sober Streets offer?
They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which not every center around Washington does.
What other centers are nearby?
The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Washington, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
What questions should I ask a center?
Accreditation, staffing, medication policy and aftercare are the four that tell you most. Any place promising a specific outcome is telling you something about itself rather than about treatment. Check the accreditation yourself rather than taking the logo at face value.
Is there a sliding scale?
Treatment is priced by program rather than by night, and the programs differ a great deal. The gap between two quotes is often the length of the program rather than the quality of the care. Ask whether detox is included in the figure, because very often it is billed on its own.
What should I bring to treatment?
Identification, insurance card, medications in their original labeled containers, and a week of ordinary clothes. A notebook and a couple of books are allowed almost everywhere and are worth more than most of what people pack. Ask whether there is a laundry, because the answer halves what you need to bring.
