Questions people ask about Family Center Inc
Is Family Center Inc residential or day treatment?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Brooklyn has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Family Center Inc offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Brooklyn offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is there a pregnancy program at Family Center Inc?
They treat pregnancy and the postpartum period, which matters because withdrawal in pregnancy is managed differently and not every place near Brooklyn is set up for it.
Is telehealth available at Family Center Inc?
They do video appointments, which matters if Brooklyn is a drive for you.
Does Family Center Inc have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Brooklyn.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Family Center Inc?
They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Brooklyn about a teenager is in the right place.
Is there anything for the family?
Family work is a standard part of treatment, though how much of it varies a lot between centers. Visiting is usually restricted in the first week and opens up later. Ask what exists for the family separately from the person being treated.
Do I have to tell my boss?
It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Keep a copy of everything you send and every date you were given.
