Questions people ask about Gosnold Emerson House
What programs does Gosnold Emerson House offer?
They offer inpatient hospital, inpatient residential and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Falmouth has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what Gosnold Emerson House offers?
They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Falmouth is the nearest place that does it, 2.4 miles away.
Can Gosnold Emerson House treat someone who does not speak English?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Falmouth does.
What is there in Falmouth that costs nothing?
Falmouth has 17 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Which medications does Gosnold Emerson House prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Falmouth.
What else is near Gosnold Emerson House?
There are 8 more within a short drive of Falmouth, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Do I have to stop my prescriptions?
A program will want the full list on day one, including anything over the counter. Interactions are the reason the list is asked for, particularly with anything sedating. Ask who writes your prescriptions after discharge, because a gap at that point is a common problem.
How long will I be away?
The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. Some people cycle through more than one level of care, and that is the intended design rather than a failure. If you can only be away for a fixed period, say so at the start rather than partway through.
