Questions people ask about Phoenix Behavioral Health Services

Which levels of care does Phoenix Behavioral Health Services have?

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

Is detox part of what Phoenix Behavioral Health Services offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Stockbridge, 7.7 miles away.

What special programs does Phoenix Behavioral Health Services offer?

One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 4 named here.

How many other options are in this area?

Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Riverdale, Stockbridge and Fayetteville.

Is Phoenix Behavioral Health Services an option for someone over 65?

They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Jonesboro.

Can I choose my own program for a court order?

Court ordered and voluntary treatment are the same programs, with different paperwork around them. What gets reported is attendance and completion, not what you said in a session, unless the order says otherwise. Ask what happens if you miss a session, so you hear it from them first.

What does dual diagnosis mean?

Depression, anxiety, trauma and attention disorders turn up constantly alongside substance use. Trauma focused therapy is offered by some programs and not others, and it is a specific skill rather than a general one. Ask whether both conditions are handled by one team or passed between two.

Which level of care do I need?

Inpatient is the higher level of care, and higher is not automatically better for everyone. Medical risk pushes toward inpatient care: withdrawal that needs supervision is not an outpatient problem. Be honest about what is around you at home. It changes the recommendation.
