Questions people ask about Wright Center for Community Health

Is Wright Center for Community Health residential or day treatment?

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 Scranton is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does Wright Center for Community Health offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Lake Ariel, 12 miles away.

Are there alternatives to Wright Center for Community Health?

Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Scranton, Waymart and Lake Ariel.

What special programs does Wright Center for Community Health 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 14 named here.

Does Wright Center for Community Health prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Jermyn, not all of them do.

Are there free support meetings in Jermyn?

Jermyn has 2 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

What does the court need from the program?

Mandated treatment is ordinary treatment with reporting attached, and many centers take court referrals as a matter of course. Missing sessions has consequences beyond the clinical ones, which is a real difference in practice. Ask what happens if you miss a session, so you hear it from them first.

Is there a bed available now?

Outpatient care usually starts within days. A residential bed can be immediate or weeks out. Private programs typically have shorter waits and higher prices, and both facts are part of the same picture. Ask what the fastest route into treatment is this week, and take that answer seriously.
