Questions people ask about Howard Center

What treatment does Howard Center offer?

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

Can you detox at Howard Center?

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Burlington is the nearest place that does it, under a mile away.

Is telehealth available at Howard Center?

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Burlington differ on it.

Does Howard Center have a program for veterans?

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Burlington it may be mixed.

Is there anything in Burlington besides paid treatment?

Burlington has 57 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Is treatment available in a language other than English?

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

What if this is not the first time?

A recurrence is a reason to adjust the plan rather than evidence that treatment is pointless. A recurrence is treated as part of the condition rather than as a failure of character. Say what happened last time and what was missing from the plan.

Can I keep my job if I go to treatment?

Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. Short term disability sometimes applies to a residential stay, depending on the policy. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
