Questions people ask about Volunteers of America of Oregon
Which levels of care does Volunteers of America of Oregon have?
They offer outpatient and inpatient residential. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Portland has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what Volunteers of America of Oregon offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Portland, 2.0 miles away.
What special programs does Volunteers of America of Oregon offer?
They offer a program for veterans, which not every center around Portland does.
What is there in Portland that costs nothing?
Portland has 7 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Volunteers of America of Oregon?
They prescribe 1 medication: buprenorphine. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Portland.
Does Volunteers of America of Oregon treat older adults?
They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Portland that often means one room rather than two.
What does dual diagnosis mean?
It means a mental health condition alongside substance use, which describes most people in treatment. Where a diagnosis already exists, the existing prescriber becomes part of the plan. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.
Will my plan pay for rehab?
Most of the time, partly, and the share depends on the plan rather than on the center you pick. Prior authorization is normal for a residential stay and unusual for a single outpatient visit. Ask the center to put the benefits check in writing before an admission date is set.
