Questions people ask about Dimock Center
What treatment does Dimock Center offer?
They provide outpatient, inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Boston is set up for.
Does Dimock Center offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Roxbury, a few streets away.
Are remote sessions an option at Dimock Center?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Boston.
Is Dimock Center an option for a veteran?
Yes, they offer a veterans program, one of 12 named programs at this address.
What other centers are nearby?
8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Roxbury.
Is medication assisted treatment effective?
It means a doctor is involved and a prescription is part of what holds the first months together. Methadone is dispensed under rules of its own, often daily at first, which is a practical difference rather than a medical one. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.
Can someone go back into treatment?
Going back into treatment is normal, and most centers treat people who have been through it before. The level of care that fits now may not be the one that fit before. Ask what this program would do differently from the last one.
What happens to school?
Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. Federal medical leave covers employers above a staff threshold and employees who have been there long enough, so it does not reach everyone. Ask the program for a date it will confirm in writing, because a leave request needs a date rather than an intention.
