Questions people ask about BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center

What programs does BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center offer?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Tuscaloosa has 5 other centers within 14 miles.

Does BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Tuscaloosa, 3.6 miles away.

Does BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe methadone and buprenorphine. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Tuscaloosa offers both.

Who are the programs at BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center built for?

They offer a program for people who are pregnant or just postpartum, which not every center around Tuscaloosa does.

Does BHG Tuscaloosa Treatment Center treat older adults?

They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Tuscaloosa.

How many other options are in this area?

There are 5 more within a short drive of Tuscaloosa, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Can I choose my own program for a court order?

Court ordered treatment is routine, and programs that take it are used to the paperwork. Whether a program satisfies a particular order is a question for the court or the officer rather than for the center alone. Confirm the program is approved before the first session rather than after it.

Can I keep my job if I go to treatment?

There is a difference between asking for leave in advance and explaining an absence afterward, and the first position is much stronger. A human resources department normally needs dates and a clinician's note rather than details of the condition. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
