Questions people ask about United Community and Family Services
Is United Community and Family Services residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in New London is set up for.
Can you detox at United Community and Family Services?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New London, 1.7 miles away.
What if there is depression or anxiety alongside this?
They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because mental health treatment and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and New London may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.
Is medication assisted treatment available at United Community and Family Services?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near New London, not all of them do.
Does United Community and Family Services have a program for veterans?
They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in New London it may be mixed.
Does United Community and Family Services treat people in Spanish?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in New London are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
What questions should I ask a center?
What matters is the fit with your situation, not a ranking, and no honest page can rank them for you. Distance from home cuts both ways: far enough to break a pattern, near enough for family to take part. Ask what license is held by the person who would actually be treating you.
Is there anything for the family?
Most programs include family sessions, and many treat the family as part of the work rather than as visitors. A release of information, signed by the patient, is what opens that door, and it can be narrow or wide. Ask what the household should have in place before the first weekend at home.
