Questions people ask about Capo by the Sea
What kind of care does Capo by the Sea provide?
They treat people at outpatient, inpatient residential, detox and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.
Does Capo by the Sea offer a detox?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Capistrano Beach that do it.

Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 12 things they offer a named program for.
Is Capo by the Sea an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Capistrano Beach.
Are there other options nearby?
Nothing else serves Capistrano Beach inside 14 miles, which is worth knowing before you rule this one out rather than against it.
What is the family's part in this?
Programs expect family contact rather than tolerating it, though the amount is set by the person in treatment. A release of information, signed by the patient, is what opens that door, and it can be narrow or wide. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can talk it through with you, whether or not you are the person in treatment.
What does the first conversation cover?
The first conversation is mostly questions about what is being used, how much, and for how long. The call can end with nothing booked, and often does. Describe what you are actually dealing with, not the version that sounds manageable.
Is methadone treatment on its own?
Medication assisted treatment means a prescribed medicine is part of the plan, alongside counseling rather than instead of it. How long someone stays on a medication varies from months to years, and that decision belongs with a prescriber. A prescriber is the only person who can judge which of the three fits your situation.
