Questions people ask about LRC Substance Abuse and Behav Health
Is LRC Substance Abuse and Behav Health inpatient or outpatient?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Columbia is set up for.
Can you detox at LRC Substance Abuse and Behav Health?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Columbia offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is there an interpreter at LRC Substance Abuse and Behav Health?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Columbia does.
Are there other options nearby?
It is the only one in that radius. Telemedicine is worth asking about where the nearest alternative is far.
What special programs does LRC Substance Abuse and Behav Health offer?
They offer a program for veterans, which not every center around Columbia does.
How do I pick the right place?
Anything a program will put in writing is easier to compare than anything it only says on a call. Whoever answers the phone is not always whoever operates the program, because referral services are common in this field. Check the accreditation yourself rather than taking the logo at face value.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
A program will want the full list on day one, including anything over the counter. A pain condition does not disappear during treatment and should be part of the conversation from the start. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.
Is medication assisted treatment effective?
For many people the medication is what makes the rest of the treatment possible, rather than a replacement for it. Coming off the medication early is a common point at which things come apart, so the planned length matters. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.
