Door County Department of

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Sturgeon Bay is set up for.

They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Sturgeon Bay does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Sturgeon Bay are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They offer a program for court referrals, which not every center around Sturgeon Bay does.

They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Sturgeon Bay about a teenager is in the right place.

They normally continue, and a prescriber at the program reviews the whole list on arrival. A pain condition does not disappear during treatment and should be part of the conversation from the start. Ask who writes your prescriptions after discharge, because a gap at that point is a common problem.

Programs expect family contact rather than tolerating it, though the amount is set by the person in treatment. What a program will discuss with a relative is set by a signed authorization, and it can be as narrow as attendance only. Ask what the family part of the program is called and who runs it, because that shows how seriously it is treated.

Someone will want to know how recently you used, because that decides whether detox comes first. The call can be made by a relative, and intake lines deal with that constantly. If the call goes badly, call somewhere else. They are not all the same.
