Community Mental Health Consultants

They offer outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Nevada has 1 other center within 14 miles.

They handle detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Nevada has 1 other center to compare.

One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 5 named here.

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Nevada often still has to be in person.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Nevada has 1 other center, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

It is the stretch after discharge, and it tends to decide whether the program holds. Alumni programs exist at many centers and are usually free to people who went through them. Ask what is scheduled for the first seven days after discharge.

Marketing language is nearly identical across the field, so the comparison has to be made on specifics. Whoever answers the phone is not always whoever operates the program, because referral services are common in this field. Ask both places for the daily schedule and compare those rather than the brochures.

The list comes with you and gets reviewed. Nothing on it should change on a policy rather than a prescription. Pill organizers are often refused at the door, because medication has to arrive labeled. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.
