Questions people ask about Bronx Outreach Center
Which levels of care does Bronx Outreach Center have?
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 Harrison is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Can you detox at Bronx Outreach Center?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Bronx, about a mile away.
Is there a program at Bronx Outreach Center for people like me?
They offer a program for veterans, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Bronx has 8 other centers to ask.
Can I do this by video instead?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Bronx.
Are there free support meetings in Bronx?
Bronx has 113 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Bronx Outreach Center?
Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Bronx has 8 other centers to ask the same of.
What is the family's part in this?
Most programs include family sessions, and many treat the family as part of the work rather than as visitors. Where children are involved, some programs can keep a parent and child together and most cannot. Ask what the family program actually consists of and how often it meets.
Is outpatient enough?
One of them takes the decision to use out of your hands for a while. The other leaves it with you. A clinician settles this on risk, history and circumstances, and the assessment is a single appointment. Ask for an assessment before anybody recommends a level of care to you.
