Jade Wellness Center

They provide outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Cranberry Township is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They handle detox for alcohol and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Wexford has 8 other centers to compare.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Wexford.

They do video appointments, which matters if Wexford is a drive for you.

Wexford has 13 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Wexford has 8 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

Most people in treatment have something else going on as well, and the good programs expect it. An integrated program treats both in one place. A sequential one treats the substance use first, which leaves a gap. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.

A recurrence is a reason to adjust the plan rather than evidence that treatment is pointless. The useful question after a recurrence is what was missing, and the answer is often medication or aftercare. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
