Questions people ask about Lebanon VAMC
Which levels of care does Lebanon VAMC have?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Pottsville is set up for.
Is detox part of what Lebanon VAMC offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Mahanoy City, 10 miles away.
Does Lebanon VAMC treat older adults?
Older adults, plus young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask how the groups are arranged in Pottsville, because a wide age range often still means one room.
Is there a program at Lebanon VAMC for people like me?
They offer a program for veterans, 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 Pottsville has 6 other centers to ask.
Is there anything in Pottsville besides paid treatment?
Pottsville has 15 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
What is buprenorphine used for?
Medication is one tool in a program, and for opioid use disorder it is the one with the strongest evidence behind it. The evidence for medication in opioid use disorder is strong enough that its absence from a program is worth asking about. A prescriber is the only person who can judge which of the three fits your situation.
Will my treatment be kept private?
A program treats the fact that you are there as confidential by default, including from whoever is paying. Employers and courts normally receive attendance rather than clinical content. Decide now who you want kept informed, because that form is easier to fill in calmly than in a crisis.
What do I need to pack for a residential program?
Your id, your card, your prescriptions, and the name of anyone the center is allowed to speak to. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Ask what to do about prescriptions and mail arriving at home while you are away.
