Questions people ask about SARP Substance Abuse

What programs does SARP Substance Abuse offer?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and New London is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Is detox part of what SARP Substance Abuse offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New London, 3.2 miles away.

Does SARP Substance Abuse prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Groton, not all of them do.

Is there anything in Groton besides paid treatment?

Groton has 5 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Who is SARP Substance Abuse for?

They treat young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Groton has 8 other centers to try.

Can family be involved in treatment?

Most places run something for families, and the quality of it is one of the clearer differences between two centers. The first conversation with a center can be had by a family member, before the person using is ready to make a call. Ask what the visiting rules are in the first week and after it.

Who finds out that I went to treatment?

The rule covers the first phone call too, before you are a patient and whether or not you ever become one. The form sets both who may be told and what they may be told, which are two separate choices. You can ask all of this without committing to anything.

What happens to school?

A medical leave is the normal route, and the reason given to an employer can stay general. Colleges handle this through a medical leave process, which normally leaves a better record than an incomplete semester. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
