Questions people ask about Saint Josephs ATRC
What programs does Saint Josephs ATRC offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: inpatient residential and telemedicine. Of the 3 centers within 14 miles of Saranac Lake, 1 offers a bed.
Does Saint Josephs ATRC offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Saranac Lake offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is Saint Josephs ATRC an option for someone over 65?
They treat older adults, along with young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64, which is a wider range than most places listed near Saranac Lake cover.
Which medications does Saint Josephs ATRC prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 3 centers near Saranac Lake, not all of them do.
Is there anywhere else close by?
3 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Saranac Lake.
Is there anything in Saranac Lake besides paid treatment?
Saranac Lake has 30 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Can a mental health condition be treated at the same time?
Treating the substance use and leaving a diagnosis untouched is a common reason a first attempt does not hold. Psychiatric medication and treatment medication can usually be managed together by the same team. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.
What do I say when I call?
The point of the call is to work out which level of care fits, which takes a handful of questions. A family member can make the call and answer much of this, though some questions only the person using can answer. Write down who you spoke to and what they committed to.
