Questions people ask about Helena Valley Addiciton Services
What programs does Helena Valley Addiciton Services offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Helena has 4 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Helena Valley Addiciton Services?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Helena, about a mile away.
Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Helena Valley Addiciton Services?
Yes. They treat people in Spanish. Confirm it for the first appointment specifically, because in Helena that can depend on who is rostered that day.
Is Helena Valley Addiciton Services an option for a veteran?
They offer a program for veterans. Whether they bill the VA is a separate question, and the answer differs between places even inside Helena.
Does Helena Valley Addiciton Services have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Helena.
What is aftercare?
It is the stretch after discharge, and it tends to decide whether the program holds. An alumni group, a weekly session and a prescriber are the three pieces most plans are built from. Ask what the discharge plan looks like before you choose the program.
How much does treatment cost?
Treatment is priced by program rather than by night, and the programs differ a great deal. Some centers hold a small number of funded places and do not advertise them, so the question is worth asking out loud. Get the figure in writing if you can, and ask what happens if you need longer than the program length.
What if this is not the first time?
Going back into treatment is normal, and most centers treat people who have been through it before. Tolerance falls quickly during any break from use, which makes the stretch right after a program the riskiest one. Ask what this program would do differently from the last one.
