Questions people ask about Village Family Service Center
What treatment does Village Family Service Center offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Fargo, 3 offer a bed.
Can you detox at Village Family Service Center?
No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is about a mile away in Fargo.
Is there anywhere else close by?
The nearest other center is a few streets away, in Fargo, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
Is there anything in Fargo besides paid treatment?
Fargo has 39 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Is telehealth available at Village Family Service Center?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Fargo.
What happens to the medication I already take?
Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Interactions are the reason the list is asked for, particularly with anything sedating. Ask who to speak to if something needs changing mid program.
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 family member asking the questions is normal, and intake lines are used to it. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can talk it through with you, whether or not you are the person in treatment.
What are the usual program lengths?
The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. Some people cycle through more than one level of care, and that is the intended design rather than a failure. Ask what the criteria for leaving are, because some programs have them written down.
