Shawnee Healthcare

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Carterville has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Carterville offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which is worth confirming before a first visit because Carterville has 8 other centers and not all of them do.

The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Carterville, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Carterville.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Carterville offers both.

Expect questions rather than a pitch, and expect them to be fairly direct. Honest answers get a better recommendation, and understating the amount is the most common way people get sent to the wrong level of care. It is fine to say you are only gathering information.

Partly, almost always. The size of the part is the thing to pin down. A plan tends to approve a level of care in blocks of days, then review whether to carry on. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look at the plan with you before you commit to anything.
