David Lawrence 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 provide detox for 5 substances: alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Whether a bed is free this week is a question for the call, and Naples has 3 other centers.

They offer a program for veterans. Whether they bill the VA is a separate question, and the answer differs between places even inside Naples.

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 3 centers near Naples differ on it.

Yes. They treat people in Spanish. Confirm it for the first appointment specifically, because in Naples that can depend on who is rostered that day.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Naples.

It normally means continuing outpatient sessions, a prescriber if medication is involved, and free meetings. A discharge plan should name the appointments, who prescribes, and what to do on a bad night. Ask who to ring at two in the morning, and get the number written down.

Less than you think, and the medication list matters more than the clothes. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Leave anything valuable at home rather than arguing about it at intake.
