Questions people ask about Providence Treatment
What kind of care does Providence Treatment provide?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Boston, 3 offer a bed.
Is detox part of what Providence Treatment offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Boston, under a mile away.
What special programs does Providence Treatment offer?
They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Boston has 8 other centers to ask.
Is Providence Treatment an option for someone over 65?
They treat seniors. Interactions with the medications an older adult is already taking are the usual reason it matters, so ask who reviews them in Boston.
How many options are within driving distance?
The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Boston, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
What does the court need from the program?
The treatment is the same. What changes is that attendance is reported to whoever ordered it. People who arrive under an order do about as well as people who arrive voluntarily, which surprises most people. Ask exactly what gets reported, to whom, and how often.
Can family be involved in treatment?
Involvement is common, and so are limits on it, set by the person being treated. Living with somebody in early recovery changes a household's routine, and family sessions are where that gets planned. Ask what the household should have in place before the first weekend at home.
Can I start this week?
Publicly funded residential programs tend to have the longest lists and the lowest cost. Many programs start the admissions paperwork during the wait, so the day a bed opens is not spent on forms. Ask what can be started while you wait.
