Unity Hospital of Rochester

They provide outpatient, detox and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Rochester is set up for.

They detox from alcohol. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and 1 of the 8 centers near Rochester offers one at all.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Rochester has 8 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them 3.8 miles away in Rochester.

They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Rochester.

The two feed each other, which is why handling them separately tends to work badly. Psychiatric medication and treatment medication can usually be managed together by the same team. Ask whether both are treated in the same place or one after the other.

Most programs include family sessions, and many treat the family as part of the work rather than as visitors. Family sessions are often the first place anybody explains what the next year is actually going to look like. Ask what the visiting rules are in the first week and after it.

It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. Colleges handle this through a medical leave process, which normally leaves a better record than an incomplete semester. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
