Questions people ask about Better Life Partners
What kind of care does Better Life Partners provide?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Rumford is set up for.
Is detox part of what Better Life Partners offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Rumford offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can Better Life Partners handle a court referral?
They take court referrals, so a program ordered by a court in Rumford is something they handle.
Is there anything in Rumford besides paid treatment?
Rumford has 1 AA group, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Better Life Partners?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Rumford.
Can I do this by video instead?
They do video appointments, which matters if Rumford is a drive for you.
How do I pick the right place?
Marketing language is nearly identical across the field, so the comparison has to be made on specifics. Whoever answers the phone is not always whoever operates the program, because referral services are common in this field. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather have someone else do the comparing.
How many weeks is a program?
Most residential programs are built around 30 days, which is a billing convention more than a clinical finding. The early part of any program is mostly stabilizing, and the work people picture when they think of treatment starts after that. Ask what the criteria for leaving are, because some programs have them written down.
