They treat people at inpatient residential, inpatient hospital, outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.

Does Department of Veteran Affairs Hospital offer a detox?

They handle detox for opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Dallas has 8 other centers to compare.

What ages does Department of Veteran Affairs Hospital treat?

Their programs are for adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The group you sit in is usually built around the age band, which in Dallas can mean one group rather than several.

Are there free support meetings in Dallas?

Dallas has 508 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

What special programs does Department of Veteran Affairs Hospital offer?

They offer a program for veterans, which not every center around Dallas does.

Are remote sessions an option at Department of Veteran Affairs Hospital?

They do video appointments, which matters if Dallas is a drive for you.

Should I live at the center?

One of them takes the decision to use out of your hands for a while. The other leaves it with you. People commonly start higher and step down, rather than choosing one level and staying there. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can walk through which level fits before you start ringing centers.

Is medication part of treatment?

It is medical treatment for a medical condition, prescribed and monitored like any other. The evidence for medication in opioid use disorder is strong enough that its absence from a program is worth asking about. If a specific medication matters to you, ask for it by name rather than asking about medication in general.
