Questions people ask about Cumberland River Behavioral Health
What levels of care does Cumberland River Behavioral Health offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Mount Vernon is set up for.
Is detox part of what Cumberland River Behavioral Health offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Mount Vernon offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Cumberland River Behavioral Health have beds?
They are outpatient, and nobody inside 14 miles of Mount Vernon offers a bed, which is worth knowing if being away from home is the point of it.
Is there a program at Cumberland River Behavioral Health for people like me?
They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which not every center around Mount Vernon does.
Which medications does Cumberland River Behavioral Health prescribe?
They prescribe naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Mount Vernon offers both.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Mount Vernon often still has to be in person.
What about the medication my doctor prescribed?
Some programs have a prescriber on site and some rely on yours, which is worth knowing in advance. Where a program has no prescriber of its own, what you take stays with whoever already manages it. Call (844) 822-5800 if a specific prescription is the thing making this complicated.
Do I have to tell my employer?
Often, and treatment frequently qualifies as medical leave rather than something you have to explain in detail. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed.
