Madison County Health Department

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

They do not, and neither does anywhere else listed around Marshall. Withdrawal management and treatment are often two separate admissions, and this is one of those times.

They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, adults from 26 to 64 and adults over 65, which in Marshall is worth confirming before you drive over.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Marshall are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Marshall.

Most programs will say plainly whether they sit on a court's approved list. A deadline inside an order is easier to meet when the program hears about it on the first call. Tell the program about the deadline in the order at the start, not near it.

You will be asked about the drug, the dose, your medical history and your coverage. A family member can make the call and answer much of this, though some questions only the person using can answer. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.

The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. Some people cycle through more than one level of care, and that is the intended design rather than a failure. Ask whether detox time counts inside the program length or is added to it.
