Questions people ask about HealthQwest
Which levels of care does HealthQwest have?
They provide outpatient, detox and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Cumming is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does HealthQwest offer a detox?
They provide detox for 1 substance: opioids. Whether a bed is free this week is a question for the call, and Buford has 8 other centers.
Is treatment available in Spanish at HealthQwest?
Spanish is one of 2 languages they work in beyond English, alongside Sign language, which is a wider range than most of Buford.
Are there other centers close to HealthQwest?
Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Cumming, Lawrenceville and Auburn.
Does HealthQwest have beds?
They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Cumming has the nearest beds, 11 miles away.
Is there a program at HealthQwest for people like me?
They offer a program for veterans, which not every center around Buford does.
Can depression be treated at the same time?
Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. Whether a psychiatrist sits on the team, and how often you would see one, separates programs here. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.
What if this is not the first time?
Returning to use after treatment is common enough that programs are built expecting it. A different level of care is often the right response rather than a repeat of the same program. Ask about naloxone if opioids are involved, because tolerance will have dropped.
