Questions people ask about Wood County Human Services Department
What programs does Wood County Human Services Department offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Wisconsin Rapids has 1 other center within 14 miles.
Does Wood County Human Services Department offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Wisconsin Rapids offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Wood County Human Services Department?
Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Wisconsin Rapids has 1 other center, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Wood County Human Services Department?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Wisconsin Rapids.
Does Wood County Human Services Department do telehealth?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 1 center near Wisconsin Rapids differ on it.
What should I be comparing?
The things worth comparing are the ones a program can answer with a fact rather than an adjective. A program that answers precisely about its clinicians and vaguely about its results is behaving well. Ask what kind of person this program is not right for. A good answer exists.
What if I have no insurance?
Addiction treatment sits alongside other medical benefits on most plans, so some coverage is the normal case. An out of network center can still be partly covered, and the difference lands on you. Ask the center to put the benefits check in writing before an admission date is set.
Is there a bed available now?
Detox beds turn over fastest because the stays are shortest. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Ask who to call if things get worse while you are waiting, and write that number down.
