Questions people ask about Lake County Center
What treatment does Lake County Center offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Gurnee, 3 offer a bed.
Is detox part of what Lake County Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Waukegan, about a mile away.
How many options are within driving distance?
The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Gurnee, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
Is there an age limit at Lake County Center?
Their programs are for adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The group you sit in is usually built around the age band, which in Gurnee can mean one group rather than several.
Can any of this be done remotely?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Gurnee differ on it.
Can I choose my own program for a court order?
The order decides what gets reported. The clinical plan is decided the way it is for anybody else. A program that is not approved by the relevant court will not satisfy the order, however good it is. Ask exactly what gets reported, to whom, and how often.
Does a relapse mean it failed?
Most people who recover have more than one attempt behind them. Where the first attempt had no medication and no aftercare, those are the two obvious things to change. Ask whether the program takes somebody back directly or wants a fresh assessment first.
Is there a waiting list?
It varies from same day to a month, and the only way to know is to ask on the day you are ready. A wait for residential care is not a wait for all care, and the lower levels often start sooner. Ask whether the wait changes if you are willing to start at a different level of care.
