CNS Healthcare

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 Waterford is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Pontiac, 2.6 miles away.

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Pontiac.

Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is 2.9 miles away in Pontiac.

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

Pontiac has 20 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Ask three centers and you will get three different figures, because they are pricing three different programs. Nonprofit and faith based programs sometimes cost a fraction of commercial rates, with longer waits attached. Cost is a reasonable thing to lead with, and nobody answering a treatment line will be surprised by it.

Someone will want to know how recently you used, because that decides whether detox comes first. Understating the amount is the common mistake, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Describe what is happening rather than the manageable version of it.
