Questions people ask about Community Medical Services
What programs does Community Medical Services offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Columbus has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Community Medical Services offer a detox?
They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Columbus is the nearest place that does it, 3.3 miles away.
Can I do this by video instead?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Columbus differ on it.
Is there an interpreter at Community Medical Services?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which is worth confirming before a first visit because Columbus has 8 other centers and not all of them do.
Is Community Medical Services an option for someone over 65?
They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Columbus that often means one room rather than two.
Does Community Medical Services take court ordered treatment?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 5 things they offer a named program for.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
Prescriptions are usually kept going, and changing one is a decision for a prescriber rather than a policy. Whether a program employs its own prescriber is a concrete difference worth asking about early. Any change to what you take is a conversation with a prescriber, never a decision from a page like this.
Can I start outpatient and move up?
Inpatient takes you out of your life for a while. Outpatient treats you inside it. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. Ask what the step down from residential care looks like at that center.
