Questions people ask about Plains Area Mental Health Center
What levels of care does Plains Area Mental Health Center offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Sac City has 2 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Plains Area Mental Health Center?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Sac City offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
What special programs does Plains Area Mental Health Center offer?
They offer a program for clients with a mental health diagnosis as well, which not every center around Sac City does.
Which medications does Plains Area Mental Health Center prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 2 centers near Sac City, not all of them do.
Can you stay overnight at Plains Area Mental Health Center?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Sac City has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Plains Area Mental Health Center?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Sac City.
What happens when I call?
You will be asked about the drug, the dose, your medical history and your coverage. Understating the amount is the most common mistake on that call, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Ask what the next step is and who is responsible for arranging it.
How long does treatment take?
Programs are commonly sold in blocks of 28 or 30 days, 60 days and 90 days, with outpatient care lasting longer and lighter. Aftercare has no end date, and it is the part that runs alongside ordinary life. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.
