Questions people ask about Doug Paulson Unity Recovery

Is Doug Paulson Unity Recovery inpatient or outpatient?

They offer outpatient. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Alexandria has 3 other centers within 14 miles.

Can you detox at Doug Paulson Unity Recovery?

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

Is there anywhere else close by?

There are 3 more within a short drive of Alexandria, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Does Doug Paulson Unity Recovery prescribe medication for opioid use?

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Alexandria.

Can you stay overnight at Doug Paulson Unity Recovery?

They provide outpatient care and not a residential stay, so there is no bed to wait for. The nearest place with one is in Alexandria, under a mile away.

Does Doug Paulson Unity Recovery treat teenagers?

They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Alexandria specifically.

Will a program make me come off my medication?

Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Some abstinence based programs are uncomfortable with prescribed medication, and that is a genuine difference between centers. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.

Who answers the phone?

Somebody works through a short list, and the clinical detail comes later at an assessment. Nobody needs a diagnosis to make this call, and most people making it do not have one. Ask for the name of whoever you spoke to, so the second call starts where the first ended.
