Questions people ask about Du Page County Health Department

What kind of care does Du Page County Health Department provide?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Lombard, 2.7 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

Does Du Page County Health Department offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Oak Brook, 2.9 miles away.

Does Du Page County Health Department prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Westmont, not all of them do.

What special programs does Du Page County Health Department offer?

They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which not every center around Westmont does.

Can you stay overnight at Du Page County Health Department?

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Westmont has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?

The medication review is part of intake, and it is one of the reasons intake asks so many health questions. Where a program has no prescriber of its own, what you take stays with whoever already manages it. Call (844) 822-5800 if a specific prescription is the thing making this complicated.

Who finds out that I went to treatment?

The legal protection on addiction treatment records is stronger than the one covering the rest of your medical file. The strength of the rule exists because people avoided treatment when they could not rely on it. Ask for a copy of any release you sign, and read what it covers.

Does a return to use mean treatment did not work?

Returning to use after treatment is common enough that programs are built expecting it. Programs will usually ask what happened last time, and the answer shapes what they offer. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
