Questions people ask about HRI Hospital
What treatment does HRI Hospital offer?
They treat people at inpatient hospital, outpatient, detox and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.
Does HRI Hospital offer a detox?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 2 places near Brookline that do it.
Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at HRI Hospital?
Spanish is one of 2 languages they work in beyond English, alongside Sign language, which is a wider range than most of Brookline.
How many options are within driving distance?
8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them under a mile away in Allston.
Does HRI Hospital do co-occurring treatment?
They treat mental health alongside the substance use, so both sides are handled in one place. Ask whether the psychiatric side is on site, because in Brookline that is the part that varies.
Does HRI Hospital offer appointments by video?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Brookline differ on it.
How do I choose between two centers?
Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. Accreditation by a recognized body is a floor rather than a recommendation, and the absence of it is worth asking about. Ask what kind of person this program is not right for. A good answer exists.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
You are rarely obliged to give a diagnosis to an employer, only a medical reason for leave. Federal medical leave covers employers above a staff threshold and employees who have been there long enough, so it does not reach everyone. Ask the program for a date it will confirm in writing, because a leave request needs a date rather than an intention.
