Turning Point Treatment Center - Psychiatric Services

They offer inpatient hospital, outpatient, telemedicine and detox. The practical difference is whether you sleep at home or at the center, and are 3 other centers inside 14 miles if neither suits.

They detox from opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Coming off opioids without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Dubuque that do it.

Dubuque has 14 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Dubuque often still has to be in person.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 3 centers near Dubuque, not all of them do.

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 Dubuque.

The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. A plan may approve days in batches and review before extending, so the length can change while you are in it. Ask what the schedule is day by day, because that is what you will be living.

The gap between a return to use and picking the phone up again is the part worth shortening. The level of care that fits now may not be the one that fit before. Say what happened last time and what was missing from the plan.
