Questions people ask about Desert Sage Youth Wellness Center

What treatment does Desert Sage Youth Wellness Center offer?

They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Hemet is set up for.

Does Desert Sage Youth Wellness Center offer a detox?

They do not, and neither does anywhere else listed around Hemet. Withdrawal management and treatment are often two separate admissions, and this is one of those times.

Can any of this be done remotely?

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Hemet.

Who are the programs at Desert Sage Youth Wellness Center built for?

People dealing with past trauma are one of the 5 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

Are there free support meetings in Hemet?

Alongside this, Hemet has 25 NA meetings and 74 free AA meetings.

How do I choose between two centers?

The questions that separate two programs are concrete ones about staffing, medication and what happens afterward. Referral services and treatment providers both answer the phone, and knowing which you reached changes the call. Ask who you would actually be treated by, and what their license is.

What if there is a diagnosis as well as the drinking?

Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. Where a diagnosis already exists, the existing prescriber becomes part of the plan. Ask whether both are treated in the same place or one after the other.

Do I need a referral for insurance to pay?

Often, though residential care is reviewed far more closely than outpatient care. Two centers can quote very different amounts against the same plan, which is reason enough to check more than one. It is fair to ask a center to check your plan before you decide anything at all.
