Questions people ask about FCC Behavioral Health
What treatment does FCC Behavioral Health offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Ellington is set up for.
Does FCC Behavioral Health offer a detox?
No detox, here or anywhere listed within 14 miles of Ellington. Ask whether they will take somebody straight after a detox done elsewhere, because most will.
Is there a pregnancy program at FCC Behavioral Health?
They treat pregnant and postpartum clients. Ask whether prenatal care is on site or coordinated with somewhere else in Ellington.
Is medication assisted treatment available at FCC Behavioral Health?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Ellington offers both.
Can I do this by video instead?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Ellington.
What is there in Ellington that costs nothing?
Ellington has 3 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Do I have to tell them it is court ordered?
Court ordered treatment is routine, and programs that take it are used to the paperwork. Attendance records are the usual thing reported, and the content of the sessions usually is not. Ask who signs the completion document and how long it takes to issue.
What do I need to have with me on day one?
Less than you think, and the medication list matters more than the clothes. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Leave anything valuable at home rather than arguing about it at intake.
