Questions people ask about River Valley Counseling Center
Which levels of care does River Valley Counseling Center have?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Springfield has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what River Valley Counseling Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Springfield, under a mile away.
Is River Valley Counseling Center an option for someone under 18?
They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Springfield specifically.
Can I do this by video instead?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Springfield differ on it.
Is there anything in Springfield besides paid treatment?
Alongside this, Springfield has 19 NA meetings and 47 free AA meetings.
Can I bring my own medication?
Some programs have a prescriber on site and some rely on yours, which is worth knowing in advance. Medication bought over the counter counts on the list, and leaving it off causes problems later. Bring the containers with the labels on, not a bag of loose pills.
What if I have no insurance?
Most plans cover addiction treatment to some degree, because federal parity rules put it alongside other medical care. An in network center costs less, and network lists go out of date, so it is worth verifying rather than trusting the list. Ask for a benefits check rather than an estimate, and ask what the check does not include.
What do I need to pack for a residential program?
Less than you think, and the medication list matters more than the clothes. Vitamins and anything over the counter are treated as medication and get checked the same way. Call (844) 822-5800 if you need to know what a particular program expects on arrival.
