Spencer Municipal Hospital

They offer outpatient. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Spencer has 2 other centers within 14 miles.

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

Spencer has 1 free AA meeting as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Spencer.

They prescribe 1 medication: buprenorphine. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Spencer.

The spread is enormous, from state funded care at no cost to private residential rates that need financing. A quote for 30 days and a quote for 90 days get presented the same way, so the length is the first thing to check. Ask whether detox is included in the figure, because very often it is billed on its own.

Existing prescriptions are normally continued, and they are reviewed by whoever is prescribing at the program. Pregnancy changes medication decisions substantially and needs specialist input. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Phones are allowed at some centers, restricted at others, and the rule is often different in the first week. Sort out who has your keys, your mail and your animals before the day itself.
