Questions people ask about Good Samaritan Shelter
What kind of care does Good Samaritan Shelter provide?
They provide outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in Lompoc is set up for.
Can you detox at Good Samaritan Shelter?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Lompoc offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
What is there in Lompoc that costs nothing?
Lompoc has 5 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Is Good Samaritan Shelter an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Lompoc.
Are there other options nearby?
It is on its own in this part of CA, which makes the waiting list question worth asking early.
Does Good Samaritan Shelter take court ordered treatment?
They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Lompoc send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.
Will they take my medication away?
Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. Pill organizers are often refused at the door, because medication has to arrive labeled. Call (844) 822-5800 if a specific prescription is the thing making this complicated.
Should I be looking at inpatient or outpatient treatment?
One of them takes the decision to use out of your hands for a while. The other leaves it with you. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. Ask whether the center offers the middle levels or only a bed and a weekly appointment.
