Questions people ask about VA Palo Alto Healthcare System

Which levels of care does VA Palo Alto Healthcare System have?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Seaside is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does VA Palo Alto Healthcare System offer a detox?

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Seaside, 4.2 miles away.

How many other options are in this area?

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them 2.0 miles away in Marina.

Can you stay overnight at VA Palo Alto Healthcare System?

Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is 4.2 miles away in Seaside.

What special programs does VA Palo Alto Healthcare System offer?

One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 13 named here.

Are remote sessions an option at VA Palo Alto Healthcare System?

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Marina.

Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?

The list comes with you and gets reviewed. Nothing on it should change on a policy rather than a prescription. Some abstinence based programs are uncomfortable with prescribed medication, and that is a genuine difference between centers. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.

Does my employer find out?

Treatment records for substance use are held under a federal rule that is stricter than the one covering ordinary medical records. Taking leave from work creates dates rather than a diagnosis, which is a meaningful difference. Decide now who you want kept informed, because that form is easier to fill in calmly than in a crisis.
