Questions people ask about Miami VA Healthcare System
Is Miami VA Healthcare System residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient, detox and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Homestead is set up for.
Does Miami VA Healthcare System offer a detox?
They detox from benzodiazepines, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Homestead.
Is there anything in Homestead besides paid treatment?
Homestead has 67 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Does Miami VA Healthcare System prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Homestead, not all of them do.
Does Miami VA Healthcare System treat people in Spanish?
Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Homestead has 8 other centers to ask the same of.
Does Miami VA Healthcare System have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Homestead.
What does treatment at a place like this cost?
The honest range is wide. A few outpatient sessions and a month of residential care are not comparable numbers. The gap between two quotes is often the length of the program rather than the quality of the care. Ask what the deposit is and whether any of it comes back if the program ends early.
How private is this?
The rule covers the first phone call too, before you are a patient and whether or not you ever become one. Taking leave from work creates dates rather than a diagnosis, which is a meaningful difference. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
