Questions people ask about John F Kennedy Behavioral Health

What kind of care does John F Kennedy Behavioral Health provide?

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

Is detox part of what John F Kennedy Behavioral Health offers?

No. There is no detox listed near Philadelphia at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.

Does John F Kennedy Behavioral Health have beds?

They provide outpatient care and not a residential stay, so there is no bed to wait for. The nearest place with one is in Philadelphia, under a mile away.

Who are the programs at John F Kennedy Behavioral Health built for?

Veterans are one of the 11 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

How many options are within driving distance?

The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Philadelphia, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.

Is John F Kennedy Behavioral Health an option for someone under 18?

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Philadelphia has 8 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

What about the medication my doctor prescribed?

They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Ask how soon after arrival you would see a prescriber.

What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?

Treatment often qualifies for job protected medical leave, though the rules depend on the employer's size and your length of service. An employer generally needs the dates and a clinician's confirmation rather than the condition itself. Ask whether the program can start on a date that fits a leave request.
