Questions people ask about Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services
What treatment does Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Hewitt is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services offer a detox?
They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Waco is the nearest place that does it, 2.1 miles away.
Does Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services do co-occurring treatment?
They treat both. Depression and anxiety alongside a substance are common rather than unusual, and one place handling the two together beats two handling one each. Waco has 7 other centers if this one cannot.
Does Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services offer medication for addiction?
They do not prescribe it. Ask them who they refer to, because somewhere among the 7 centers near Waco will.
Does Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services have beds?
They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Waco has the nearest beds, under a mile away.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Heart of Texas Behavioral Health Ntwk - Substance Abuse Services?
They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Waco specifically.
What will I be asked on the phone?
Someone will want to know how recently you used, because that decides whether detox comes first. The person answering is usually trained to screen rather than to treat, so a full history is not needed yet. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
Can I keep my job if I go to treatment?
Often, and treatment frequently qualifies as medical leave rather than something you have to explain in detail. A medical leave of absence from a college is normally reversible, and usually a better record than a failed semester. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
