Questions people ask about Gundersen Lutheran Medical Ctr Inc - Unity House for Men
What levels of care does Gundersen Lutheran Medical Ctr Inc - Unity House for Men offer?
They provide inpatient residential. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Onalaska is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Gundersen Lutheran Medical Ctr Inc - Unity House for Men offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of La Crosse offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
What is there in La Crosse that costs nothing?
La Crosse has 37 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
What ages does Gundersen Lutheran Medical Ctr Inc - Unity House for Men treat?
They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The nearest alternative is in Onalaska, 6.5 miles away, if the age is the thing that rules this one out.
Does Gundersen Lutheran Medical Ctr Inc - Unity House for Men offer medication for addiction?
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 La Crosse.
What are the usual program lengths?
There is no fixed length. What is on offer tends to be a 30, 60 or 90 day program. Longer time in treatment is associated with better outcomes, which is why the step down to outpatient care matters. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.
Who has access to my records?
A program needs your signature before it discusses you with anyone at all. Taking leave from work creates dates rather than a diagnosis, which is a meaningful difference. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
What should I bring to treatment?
Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Anything containing alcohol is usually refused, which catches people out on mouthwash and hand sanitizer. Write the medication list before you pack anything, with the doses and who prescribed them.
