Heartland Counseling Clinic

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Lexington has 2 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Lexington is the nearest place that does it, about a mile away.

They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Lexington about a teenager is in the right place.

Lexington has 15 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

People dealing with past trauma are one of the 2 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

The list should include anything stopped recently, because a recent change matters as much as a current dose. Anything needing a blood test or a monthly injection has to be scheduled around the program, which is easier arranged before admission. Ask whether there is a prescriber on site and how soon you would see them.

The phrase covers three medications, each working differently, each needing a prescriber. The evidence for medication in opioid use disorder is strong enough that its absence from a program is worth asking about. Ask whether counseling is included or billed separately, because the combination is the point.

It depends on the level of care and on the week, which is why only a call can answer it. Private programs typically have shorter waits and higher prices, and both facts are part of the same picture. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
