Jade Wellness Center

They offer outpatient, detox and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Pittsburgh has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They detox from alcohol and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 2 places near Pittsburgh that do it.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Pittsburgh.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Pittsburgh.

They treat pregnancy and the postpartum period, which matters because withdrawal in pregnancy is managed differently and not every place near Pittsburgh is set up for it.

Most of the programs listed here take mandated clients. A deadline inside an order is easier to meet when the program hears about it on the first call. Ask what happens if you miss a session, so you hear it from them first.

There is normally a family component, and it is one of the better questions to ask when comparing two places. Family education is often the part that changes how a household behaves, which is what the person comes home to. Ask whether family sessions carry on after the main program ends.

It is a screening conversation, and the answers decide what gets suggested. Understating the amount is the most common mistake on that call, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Ask what the next step would be and who makes it happen.
