Questions people ask about Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health
Is Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health residential or day treatment?
They provide inpatient residential, telemedicine, inpatient hospital and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Newport Beach is set up for.
Does Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health offer a detox?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Newport Beach.
Is a diagnosis handled at Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health as well?
They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because mental health treatment and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Newport Beach may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.
Can Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health handle a court referral?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 11 things they offer a named program for.
Is telehealth available at Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Newport Beach.
Does Akua Fair Oaks Mental Health prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Newport Beach.
What questions should I ask a center?
The things worth comparing are the ones a program can answer with a fact rather than an adjective. A program willing to tell you who it is not suitable for is usually being straight with you about the rest. Check the accreditation yourself rather than taking the logo at face value.
How long does treatment take?
Detox is days, residential care is weeks, and outpatient care is months. Stepping down through levels of care takes longer in total and tends to hold better than one intensive block alone. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.
