Questions people ask about River Hills Community Health Center
Is River Hills Community Health Center inpatient or outpatient?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Oskaloosa has 2 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what River Hills Community Health Center offers?
They do not, and neither does anywhere else listed around Oskaloosa. Withdrawal management and treatment are often two separate admissions, and this is one of those times.
Which medications does River Hills Community 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 Oskaloosa, not all of them do.
What else is near River Hills Community Health Center?
There are 2 more within a short drive of Oskaloosa, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
What is there in Oskaloosa that costs nothing?
Oskaloosa has 1 free AA meeting as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Can a 16 year old be treated at River Hills Community Health Center?
Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Oskaloosa has 2 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.
Is outpatient enough?
Inpatient takes you out of your life for a while. Outpatient treats you inside it. A stable home and someone in it who is on your side makes outpatient care far more workable. Ask which level they would put a family member in, and why that one.
Will I lose my job?
Treatment often counts as a medical reason for leave, with the detail of the condition staying between you and a clinician. An employer generally needs the dates and a clinician's confirmation rather than the condition itself. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
