Questions people ask about Mather Hospital at Northwell
Is Mather Hospital at Northwell inpatient or outpatient?
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 Holtsville is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Mather Hospital at Northwell offer a detox?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Port Jefferson, under a mile away.
Is there a program at Mather Hospital at Northwell for people like me?
They offer a program for adult women, which not every center around Port Jefferson does.
Does Mather Hospital at Northwell have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Port Jefferson.
What if there is depression or anxiety alongside this?
They treat both. Depression and anxiety alongside a substance are common rather than unusual, and one place handling the two together beats two handling one each. Port Jefferson has 8 other centers if this one cannot.
What if I have no insurance?
In network and out of network are the two phrases that decide most of this. A benefits check is a specific thing a billing office does, and it is more reliable than a figure quoted on the phone. Have your member id with you when you call, because nothing can be checked without it.
What does Suboxone do?
Medication is one tool in a program, and for opioid use disorder it is the one with the strongest evidence behind it. Naltrexone works the other way and blocks the effect, so it needs a period of abstinence before it can be started. If a specific medication matters to you, ask for it by name rather than asking about medication in general.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
Treatment often counts as a medical reason for leave, with the detail of the condition staying between you and a clinician. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look for a program that fits around your hours.
