Questions people ask about Catholic Charities West Michigan
What levels of care does Catholic Charities West Michigan offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Grand Rapids has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Catholic Charities West Michigan offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Grand Rapids, a few streets away.
Does Catholic Charities West Michigan treat teenagers?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Grand Rapids.
Is there a program at Catholic Charities West Michigan for people like me?
People who have been through domestic violence are one of the 3 groups they offer a dedicated program for.
Does Catholic Charities West Michigan offer medication for addiction?
They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Grand Rapids.
Do I have to tell them it is court ordered?
Plenty of programs accept referrals from a court, a probation officer or a child welfare agency. Attendance records are the usual thing reported, and the content of the sessions usually is not. Keep your own dated attendance record alongside whatever the program keeps.
Should family be part of this?
Programs expect family contact rather than tolerating it, though the amount is set by the person in treatment. What a center can tell a family member is limited by privacy law, and that limit holds even for a parent of an adult. Ask what the household should have in place before the first weekend at home.
Can I do a shorter program?
Detox is days, residential care is weeks, and outpatient care is months. The 28 day figure comes from what insurers once reimbursed rather than from anything about how recovery works. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.
