Is Lake Wellness Center residential or day treatment?
They are set up for 3 levels: outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Covington, 4 offer a bed.
Does Lake Wellness Center offer a detox?
They detox from opioids. Coming off opioids without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 6 places near Covington that do it.
What else is near Lake Wellness Center?
8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them about a mile away in Covington.
Is there a residential program at Lake Wellness Center?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Covington.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Lake Wellness Center?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Covington, not all of them do.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Covington often still has to be in person.
Can I start this week?
Availability changes week to week, which is why no listing page can tell you. The longest lists tend to sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Ask what can be started while you wait.
Do I have to tell my boss?
There is usually a way to do this that does not cost you the job, and it is worth asking before assuming. An employer generally needs the dates and a clinician's confirmation rather than the condition itself. Ask about evening and weekend schedules before ruling treatment out on time grounds.
