Questions people ask about Johnson County Mental Health Center
What kind of care does Johnson County Mental Health Center provide?
They offer inpatient residential, outpatient and telemedicine. The practical difference is whether you sleep at home or at the center, and are 8 other centers inside 14 miles if neither suits.
Is detox part of what Johnson County Mental Health Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Shawnee, a few streets away.
Is Johnson County Mental Health Center an option for someone under 18?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Shawnee.
Is there anywhere else close by?
The nearest other center is a few streets away, in Shawnee, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
Which languages does Johnson County Mental Health Center offer treatment in?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which is worth confirming before a first visit because Shawnee has 8 other centers and not all of them do.
Does Johnson County Mental Health Center treat mental health as well?
They treat both. Depression and anxiety alongside a substance are common rather than unusual, and one place handling the two together beats two handling one each. Shawnee has 8 other centers if this one cannot.
Is treatment expensive?
It ranges from nothing at all, in a state funded program, to figures that need a payment plan. Medicaid covers addiction treatment in every state, though which centers accept it varies from county to county. Ask what the deposit is and whether any of it comes back if the program ends early.
Will my treatment be kept private?
Confidentiality here is unusually strong by law, and that is a different thing from nobody noticing. Where an employer is funding treatment, it is normally told that you attended and not what was discussed. You can ask all of this without committing to anything.
