Complete Healthcare

They offer outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Columbus has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and 2 of the 8 centers near Columbus offer one at all.

They prescribe methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Columbus.

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.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Columbus has 8 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Columbus it may be mixed.

Addiction treatment records carry a stronger legal protection than the rest of a medical file. A release of information is how that changes, it is signed by you, and it can name one person and one purpose. Read what you sign at intake, because the release is in that stack.

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Phones are allowed at some centers, restricted at others, and the rule is often different in the first week. Ask what the first twenty four hours look like, because that is what you are packing for.
