Hope House Inc

They treat people at outpatient, inpatient residential and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.

They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Augusta 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 Augusta are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Augusta may not have a second place set up for it.

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

The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. The first two weeks are usually the most intensive part of whatever you choose. Call (844) 822-5800 to talk through which level of care fits what you are dealing with.

It is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended, and it is standard care for opioid use. Some programs are abstinence based by design and do not use medication at all, which is a real difference between centers. What you are already taking is part of this conversation, so bring the list.

Detox beds turn over fastest because the stays are shortest. Many programs start the admissions paperwork during the wait, so the day a bed opens is not spent on forms. Ask to be told if an earlier place opens, then check back rather than waiting to be called.
