Questions people ask about Carolina Services
What levels of care does Carolina Services offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Kings Mountain, 11 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.
Is detox part of what Carolina Services offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Kings Mountain, 11 miles away.
Is there a program at Carolina Services for people like me?
They offer a program for veterans, which not every center around Shelby does.
Does Carolina Services offer medication for addiction?
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 Shelby has 5 other centers.
Can any of this be done remotely?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 5 centers near Shelby differ on it.
What if I cannot pay for treatment?
The honest range is wide. A few outpatient sessions and a month of residential care are not comparable numbers. Every state operates a publicly funded system with its own intake line, separate from anything a private center offers. Ask for the figure per week as well as per program, because extensions are billed by the week.
Can I start outpatient and move up?
The practical question is not severity but what you go home to each night. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient fill the gap, with several hours of treatment a day and your own bed at night. Describe the house you would be going back to, because that is the detail that decides it.
Will I lose my job?
Treatment often counts as a medical reason for leave, with the detail of the condition staying between you and a clinician. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Read your own leave policy before telling anybody anything.
