Questions people ask about Intermountain Health Addiction
Is Intermountain Health Addiction inpatient or outpatient?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Midvale is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Can you detox at Intermountain Health Addiction?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Salt Lake City, a few streets away.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Salt Lake City.
Who are the programs at Intermountain Health Addiction built for?
They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Salt Lake City has 8 other centers to ask.
Which medications does Intermountain Health Addiction prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Salt Lake City offers both.
Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Intermountain Health Addiction?
Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Salt Lake City has 8 other centers to ask the same of.
Is treatment expensive?
Ask three centers and you will get three different figures, because they are pricing three different programs. Outpatient care costs a fraction of residential care, and for a lot of people it is the right level anyway. If the number is impossible, say so plainly, because the funded alternatives are real.
How long does the first call take?
The questions are much the same wherever you call, because every intake line is screening for the same few things. If you have been through treatment before, what did not work is useful information rather than a mark against you. Call (844) 822-5800 and that first conversation can happen now rather than being scheduled.
