Questions people ask about Institute for Health and Recovery Inc

What programs does Institute for Health and Recovery Inc offer?

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

Can you detox at Institute for Health and Recovery Inc?

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

Is there anything in Watertown besides paid treatment?

Watertown has 24 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Does Institute for Health and Recovery Inc treat teenagers?

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

Is treatment available in Spanish at Institute for Health and Recovery Inc?

They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Watertown are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.

Can I start outpatient and move up?

Outpatient keeps work, school and family going. Inpatient pauses them. A residential stay is the easier thing to get approved when there is a documented medical reason for it. Describe the house you would be going back to, because that is the detail that decides it.

What is not allowed?

Pack for about a week, keep the documents where you can hand them over at the door, and expect the bag to be searched. The usual banned list covers alcohol, anything containing it such as mouthwash, aerosols, sharp items and outside food. Leave anything valuable at home rather than arguing about it at intake.

What happens to school?

Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. An employer is generally entitled to dates and a clinician's confirmation, not to a diagnosis. Ask the program what its letter to an employer actually says.
