Questions people ask about CLARE Matrix
What programs does CLARE Matrix offer?
They provide inpatient residential and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Santa Monica is set up for.
Does CLARE Matrix offer a detox?

Is CLARE Matrix an option for someone over 65?
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 Santa Monica.
Is there anything in Santa Monica besides paid treatment?
Alongside this, Santa Monica has 22 NA meetings and 92 free AA meetings.
Does CLARE Matrix have a program for veterans?
Veterans are one of the 10 groups they offer a program for.
Does CLARE Matrix prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Santa Monica.
What separates a good program from a bad one?
Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. A program willing to tell you who it is not suitable for is usually being straight with you about the rest. Ask both places for the daily schedule and compare those rather than the brochures.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
What you take comes with you, in the original labeled containers, and is reviewed on arrival. A pain condition does not disappear during treatment and should be part of the conversation from the start. Write the list with doses and prescriber names before the first call.
