Questions people ask about New Paths West

Which levels of care does New Paths West have?

They treat people at inpatient residential, outpatient and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.

Is detox part of what New Paths West offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Flint, under a mile away.

Is there an interpreter at New Paths West?

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Flint does.

What else is near New Paths West?

The nearest other center is a few streets away, in Flint, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.

Does New Paths West take court ordered treatment?

They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Flint send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.

Can my family come?

Family sessions, education evenings and a visiting schedule are the usual shape of it. What a program will discuss with a relative is set by a signed authorization, and it can be as narrow as attendance only. Ask what the center expects from the household on the day the program ends.

Is medication just swapping one drug for another?

It means a doctor is involved and a prescription is part of what holds the first months together. Buprenorphine and methadone both act on the same receptors as other opioids, which is precisely why they hold withdrawal off. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.

Can I keep my job if I go to treatment?

Frequently yes, and the level of care decides it more than the employer does. Schools and colleges have their own leave of absence process, and a medical withdrawal is often reversible. Ask the program for a date it will confirm in writing, because a leave request needs a date rather than an intention.
