Crawford County Mental Health Center

They treat people at outpatient, inpatient residential, detox and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.

They handle detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Pittsburg has 1 other center to compare.

They offer a program for people who have been through domestic violence, which not every center around Pittsburg does.

They offer treatment in Sign language. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Pittsburg has 1 other center to ask.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 1 center near Pittsburg, not all of them do.

Pittsburg has 22 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Both can be treated at once, and programs that do are described as integrated or co-occurring. A diagnosis made during active use often changes once withdrawal is behind somebody. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.

Outpatient keeps work, school and family going. Inpatient pauses them. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient fill the gap, with several hours of treatment a day and your own bed at night. Ask which level they would put a family member in, and why that one.
