GPS Counseling Center

They provide outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in Modesto is set up for.

No. There is no detox listed near Modesto at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Modesto.

They treat seniors. Interactions with the medications an older adult is already taking are the usual reason it matters, so ask who reviews them in Modesto.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Modesto.

The useful questions are the ones answerable with a fact: who prescribes, what the schedule is, what follows it. Referral services and treatment providers both answer the phone, and knowing which you reached changes the call. If a place pressures you to commit on the call, that is information.

There is normally a family component, and it is one of the better questions to put to two programs. What a program will discuss with a relative is set by a signed authorization, and it can be as narrow as attendance only. Ask what the family part of the program is called and who runs it, because that shows how seriously it is treated.

Partly, almost always. The size of the part is the thing to pin down. A benefits check is a specific thing a billing office does, and it is more reliable than a figure quoted on the phone. Get any authorization in writing, with the number of days it covers.
