NWIHCS/Lincoln VA - Substance Use Disorders Program

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Lincoln has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Lincoln does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Lincoln has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Lincoln.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Lincoln has 8 other centers to try.

Lincoln has 14 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Returning to use after treatment is common enough that programs are built expecting it. What changed, who was around, and whether medication was part of the plan are the questions worth asking after a recurrence. Nothing about calling again is unusual. Intake lines hear it daily.

One program can take somebody today while another in the same town is a month out. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Ask whether the wait differs for someone paying privately, because the answer is often yes.
