Questions people ask about Lawndale Christian Health Center
Which levels of care does Lawndale Christian Health Center have?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Chicago has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Lawndale Christian Health Center offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Chicago, under a mile away.
Is there anything in Chicago besides paid treatment?
Alongside this, Chicago has 83 NA meetings and 876 free AA meetings.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Lawndale Christian Health Center?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Chicago are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
Can I do this by video instead?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Chicago often still has to be in person.
Which medications does Lawndale Christian Health Center prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Chicago, not all of them do.
Does court ordered treatment work the same way?
The treatment is the same. What changes is that attendance is reported to whoever ordered it. Completion paperwork is routine, and asking for it at the end is normal rather than awkward. Confirm the program is approved before the first session rather than after it.
Is the first call an assessment?
The questions are much the same wherever you call, because every intake line is screening for the same few things. If you have been through treatment before, what did not work is useful information rather than a mark against you. Ask what the next step is and who is responsible for arranging it.
