Questions people ask about Sheppard Pratt
What kind of care does Sheppard Pratt provide?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Hagerstown has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Sheppard Pratt?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Hagerstown, under a mile away.
Can you stay overnight at Sheppard Pratt?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Hagerstown.
Are there free support meetings in Hagerstown?
Hagerstown has 64 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Does Sheppard Pratt offer appointments by video?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Hagerstown differ on it.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Sheppard Pratt?
They do not prescribe it. Ask them who they refer to, because somewhere among the 8 centers near Hagerstown will.
What happens when I call?
Somebody works through a short list: the substance, the amount, the history, the insurance. Medical history matters here: seizures, pregnancy, heart problems and current prescriptions all change the plan. If the call goes badly, call somewhere else. They are not all the same.
What if there is no space?
Detox beds turn over fastest because the stays are shortest. Many programs offer an interim option while you wait, usually outpatient sessions or a daily check in. Ask who to call if things get worse while you are waiting, and write that number down.
