Questions people ask about Indian River VA Clinic
What kind of care does Indian River VA Clinic provide?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Indian River is set up for.
Does Indian River VA Clinic offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Indian River offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is there a residential program at Indian River VA Clinic?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Indian River has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Can Indian River VA Clinic handle a dual diagnosis?
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 Indian River that is the part that varies.
Is Indian River VA Clinic an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Indian River.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They do video appointments, which matters if Indian River is a drive for you.
Is there family counseling?
Family work is a standard part of treatment, though how much of it varies a lot between centers. Living with somebody in early recovery changes a household's routine, and family sessions are where that gets planned. Ask how often the family sessions meet and whether they happen in person.
What if this is not the first time?
A recurrence is a reason to adjust the plan rather than evidence that treatment is pointless. Tolerance drops during any period of abstinence, which makes the first use after treatment the most dangerous one. Ask about naloxone if opioids are involved, because tolerance will have dropped.
