Questions people ask about First Step Services of North Carolina

Is First Step Services of North Carolina inpatient or outpatient?

They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Raleigh, 1 offers a bed.

Does First Step Services of North Carolina offer a detox?

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

Is there a program at First Step Services of North Carolina for people like me?

Veterans are one of the 3 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

Does First Step Services of North Carolina prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Raleigh, not all of them do.

What else is near First Step Services of North Carolina?

There are 8 more within a short drive of Raleigh, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Does First Step Services of North Carolina have beds?

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

What is aftercare?

The weeks right after a program are the highest risk stretch, so what is arranged for them matters. Free fellowship meetings run in most towns, cost nothing and need no referral, which is why they outlast paid programs. Book the first appointment after discharge while you are still in the program, not afterward.

Is there a waiting list?

One program can take somebody today while another in the same town is a month out. A medical need moves someone up a list, and withdrawal risk is the usual reason. Ask what is available this week, not just what the program is.
