Questions people ask about Rescue Mission of Utica
Is Rescue Mission of Utica residential or day treatment?
They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Utica is set up for.
Can you detox at Rescue Mission of Utica?
They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Utica does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.
Which medications does Rescue Mission of Utica prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 7 centers near Utica, not all of them do.
Can any of this be done remotely?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 7 centers near Utica differ on it.
What is there in Utica that costs nothing?
Utica has 30 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
What are the usual program lengths?
Days for a detox, weeks for a residential stay, months for outpatient care. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient sit between residential and standard outpatient care, at a few hours a day. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
What is the difference between inpatient and outpatient?
One removes you from the situation and the other treats you inside it, and that is the whole of the decision. The higher level is not automatically the better one, and being placed above what you need is its own problem. Be honest about what is around you at home. It changes the recommendation.
What can I take with me?
Identification, insurance card, medications in their original labeled containers, and a week of ordinary clothes. The usual banned list covers alcohol, anything containing it such as mouthwash, aerosols, sharp items and outside food. Write the medication list before you pack anything, with the doses and who prescribed them.
