Questions people ask about Northshore Treatment Center

What kind of care does Northshore Treatment Center provide?

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 Pasadena is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Is detox part of what Northshore Treatment Center offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Deer Park, 8.1 miles away.

Is Northshore Treatment Center an option for someone over 65?

They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Houston that often means one room rather than two.

Does Northshore Treatment Center offer appointments by video?

They do video appointments, which matters if Houston is a drive for you.

Is medication assisted treatment available at Northshore Treatment Center?

They prescribe methadone and buprenorphine, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Houston, not all of them do.

What does stepping down look like?

The month after a program is the one that needs a schedule, and aftercare is that schedule. Having something scheduled for the first week back is better than having good intentions for it. Ask whether the center keeps treating you afterwards or hands you on.

What should I be comparing?

Anything a program will put in writing is easier to compare than anything it only says on a call. A program that cannot tell you its staff to client ratio usually has a reason. If a place pressures you to commit on the call, that is information.

Can I work during treatment?

There is usually a way to do this that does not cost you the job, and it is worth asking before assuming. A human resources department normally needs dates and a clinician's note rather than details of the condition. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look for a program that fits around your hours.
