Questions people ask about Port Saint Lucie Hospital
What kind of care does Port Saint Lucie Hospital provide?
They provide inpatient hospital, outpatient and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Stuart is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Port Saint Lucie Hospital offer a detox?
They detox from opioids, alcohol and benzodiazepines, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Port Saint Lucie.
Can Port Saint Lucie Hospital handle a court referral?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 12 things they offer a named program for.
Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Port Saint Lucie Hospital?
Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Port Saint Lucie has 8 other centers to ask the same of.
Does Port Saint Lucie Hospital prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Port Saint Lucie offers both.
What ages does Port Saint Lucie Hospital treat?
They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The nearest alternative is in Stuart, 4.0 miles away, if the age is the thing that rules this one out.
Do I have to stop my prescriptions?
They normally continue, and a prescriber at the program reviews the whole list on arrival. Some abstinence based programs are uncomfortable with prescribed medication, and that is a genuine difference between centers. Take the labeled containers rather than a week of loose pills in an organizer.
What if there is no space?
There is often something available sooner at a different level of care than the one you called about. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Ask to be put on a cancellation list as well as the main one.
