Questions people ask about Lutheran Family Services
Is Lutheran Family Services residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in North Platte is set up for.
Does Lutheran Family Services offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in North Platte, under a mile away.
Does Lutheran Family Services do telehealth?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into North Platte.
Is treatment available in a language other than English?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around North Platte does.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Lutheran Family Services?
No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and North Platte has 5 other centers to compare.
Does Lutheran Family Services have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in North Platte.
How long does the first call take?
The first conversation is mostly questions about what is being used, how much, and for how long. The call can be made by a relative, and intake lines deal with that constantly. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.
What are the usual program lengths?
The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. Aftercare has no end date, and it is the part that runs alongside ordinary life. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
