Questions people ask about Ecker Center for Behavioral Health
What programs does Ecker Center for Behavioral Health offer?
They provide outpatient. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Geneva is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Ecker Center for Behavioral Health offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Saint Charles offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can Ecker Center for Behavioral Health treat someone who does not speak English?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Saint Charles are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
How many options are within driving distance?
Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Geneva, West Chicago and Batavia.
Can you stay overnight at Ecker Center for Behavioral Health?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Saint Charles.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Ecker Center for Behavioral Health?
They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Saint Charles has 8 other centers.
Can I choose my own program for a court order?
It is common, and a program that takes referrals will know exactly what the court expects. The court usually specifies a level of care or a number of hours, and that narrows which programs qualify. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look for programs that take referrals in IL.
Can someone go back into treatment?
Nobody is turned away for having been through a program before. Shame is the main reason people wait, and waiting is the thing that makes it worse. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
