Questions people ask about Easterseals PORT Health
Is Easterseals PORT Health inpatient or outpatient?
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 Camp Lejeune is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Easterseals PORT Health offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Jacksonville offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is Easterseals PORT Health an option for someone over 65?
They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Jacksonville.
Can I do this by video instead?
They do video appointments, which matters if Jacksonville is a drive for you.
Which languages does Easterseals PORT Health offer treatment in?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Jacksonville does.
Does Easterseals PORT Health treat people who are pregnant?
They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Jacksonville may not have a second place set up for it.
Can I start outpatient and move up?
Residential care is a bed and a program. Outpatient care is a schedule of appointments. A clinician settles this on risk, history and circumstances, and the assessment is a single appointment. Be honest about what is around you at home. It changes the recommendation.
Is medication part of treatment?
It is medical treatment for a medical condition, prescribed and monitored like any other. The evidence for medication in opioid use disorder is strong enough that its absence from a program is worth asking about. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.
