Questions people ask about Tools for Life Ltd
Is Tools for Life Ltd inpatient or outpatient?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Saint Charles is set up for.
Can you detox at Tools for Life Ltd?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Saint Charles offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Who are the programs at Tools for Life Ltd built for?
Court referrals are one of the 2 groups they offer a dedicated program for.
Are there alternatives to Tools for Life Ltd?
Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Aurora, North Aurora and Batavia.
Which medications does Tools for Life Ltd prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Saint Charles, not all of them do.
Do I have to come in person to Tools for Life Ltd?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Saint Charles.
What does stepping down look like?
Most of recovery happens after the program, which is an awkward fact for anyone selling programs. Where medication is part of the plan, the handover to a community prescriber is the gap to watch. Ask whether the aftercare is run by the program or handed to somebody else.
How do I pick the right place?
Accreditation, staffing, medication policy and aftercare are the four that tell you most. Who delivers the therapy matters: licensed clinicians and counselors in training are not the same thing. Ask what license is held by the person who would actually be treating you.
