Questions people ask about Gaudenzia

What treatment does Gaudenzia offer?

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

Can you detox at Gaudenzia?

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Edinboro offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Does Gaudenzia have beds?

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

Is treatment available in a language other than English?

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

Can any of this be done remotely?

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Edinboro often still has to be in person.

Does court ordered treatment work the same way?

Most programs will say plainly whether they sit on a court's approved list. What gets reported is normally attendance rather than anything said in a session. Keep your own dated record of attendance alongside whatever the program keeps.

Is medication just swapping one drug for another?

Medication assisted treatment means a prescribed medicine is part of the plan, alongside counseling rather than instead of it. Treatment that combines medication with counseling holds people in care longer than either on its own. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.

Can someone go back into treatment?

A recurrence is a reason to adjust the plan rather than evidence that treatment is pointless. Shame is the main reason people wait, and waiting is the thing that makes it worse. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
