Questions people ask about NM Department of Health
Is NM Department of Health residential or day treatment?
They treat people at inpatient hospital, outpatient, inpatient residential and detox. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.
Does NM Department of Health offer a detox?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Roswell that do it.
Are there alternatives to NM Department of Health?
There are 2 more within a short drive of Roswell, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Can NM Department of Health handle a court referral?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 5 things they offer a named program for.
Is medication assisted treatment available at NM Department of Health?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Roswell offers both.
How do people afford rehab?
Cost turns on three things: the level of care, how long it lasts, and what your coverage picks up. A quote for 30 days and a quote for 90 days get presented the same way, so the length is the first thing to check. Ask for the itemized version rather than a single total, because the surprises sit in the line items.
Can I bring my own medication?
Some programs have a prescriber on site and some rely on yours, which is worth knowing in advance. Pregnancy changes medication decisions substantially and needs specialist input. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.
How long would I be in a program?
Detox is days, residential care is weeks, and outpatient care is months. The early part of any program is mostly stabilizing, and the work people picture when they think of treatment starts after that. Ask what the criteria for leaving are, because some programs have them written down.
