Questions people ask about Defining Wellness Centers

What kind of care does Defining Wellness Centers provide?

They offer inpatient residential and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Brandon has 2 other centers within 14 miles.

Does Defining Wellness Centers offer a detox?

Which medications does Defining Wellness Centers prescribe?

What is there in Brandon that costs nothing?

Brandon has 3 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Is there anywhere else close by?

The nearest other center is 12 miles away, in Canton, and there are 2 inside 14 miles.

Can Defining Wellness Centers treat someone who does not speak English?

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Brandon does.

Should I live at the center?

The choice is normally made on medical risk and on what home looks like, in that order. A stable home and someone in it who is on your side makes outpatient care far more workable. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can walk through which level fits before you start ringing centers.

What if there is no space?

A wait quoted on the phone is an estimate of a queue that moves, rather than a date you can plan around. Many programs offer an interim option while you wait, usually outpatient sessions or a daily check in. Ask who to call if things get worse while you are waiting, and write that number down.
