Questions people ask about NorthStar Regional
Which levels of care does NorthStar Regional have?
They provide inpatient residential, telemedicine and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Shakopee is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
What does NorthStar Regional detox from?
They detox from opioids, cocaine and methamphetamines. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and 1 of the 8 centers near Chaska offers one at all.
Does NorthStar Regional treat people who are pregnant?
Yes. They offer a program for pregnant and postpartum clients, which is one of 3 named programs here.
Are remote sessions an option at NorthStar Regional?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Chaska differ on it.
What is there in Chaska that costs nothing?
Chaska has 17 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Is a dual diagnosis treated in one place?
Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. An integrated program handles both with one team, which removes the handover where people get lost. Ask whether both are treated in the same place or one after the other.
What happens when I call?
Expect questions rather than a sales pitch, and expect them to be direct. The person answering is usually trained to screen rather than to treat, so a full history is not needed yet. Ask what the next step is and who is responsible for arranging it.
Can I start outpatient and move up?
One of them takes the decision to use out of your hands for a while. The other leaves it with you. An assessment by a clinician is how this is normally decided, and it takes about an hour. Describe the house you would be going back to, because that is the detail that decides it.
