Questions people ask about National Capital Treatment and Recover
Is National Capital Treatment and Recover inpatient or outpatient?
They provide inpatient residential, which is the whole of what this address in Alexandria is set up for.
Can you detox at National Capital Treatment and Recover?
No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is 4.2 miles away in Washington.
Is National Capital Treatment and Recover an option for someone over 65?
They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Alexandria that often means one room rather than two.
What is there in Alexandria that costs nothing?
Alexandria has 17 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Is there a pregnancy program at National Capital Treatment and Recover?
Yes. They offer a program for pregnant and postpartum clients, which is one of 4 named programs here.
What questions should I ask a center?
Compare the specifics, because almost every center describes itself in the same words. Paying a marketing company for referrals is common in this field, so who answers the phone is not always who treats you. Ask what license is held by the person who would actually be treating you.
Will a court accept this program?
Being sent rather than choosing to go changes the paperwork more than it changes the treatment. People who arrive under an order do about as well as people who arrive voluntarily, which surprises most people. Tell the program about the deadline in the order at the start, not near it.
What should I bring to treatment?
The paperwork, the medication in its labeled containers, and about a week of ordinary clothes. Chargers, razors and anything with a cord are often held and signed out when needed rather than kept in the room. Write the medication list before you pack anything, with the doses and who prescribed them.
