Questions people ask about Association House of Chicago
What levels of care does Association House of Chicago offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Chicago, 2 offer a bed.
Is detox part of what Association House of Chicago offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Chicago offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Association House of Chicago prescribe medication for opioid use?
They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Chicago has 8 other centers.
Can you stay overnight at Association House of Chicago?
They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Chicago has the nearest beds, under a mile away.
What special programs does Association House of Chicago 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 15 named here.
Do I have to come in person to Association House of Chicago?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Chicago often still has to be in person.
What does stepping down look like?
It normally means continuing outpatient sessions, a prescriber if medication is involved, and free meetings. Where medication is part of the plan, the handover to a community prescriber is the gap to watch. Get the follow up appointment into the diary before the program ends.
Is a second attempt treated differently?
A return to use is treated as information: something in the plan was not holding. The level of care that fits now may not be the one that fit before. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
