Questions people ask about Lebanon VAMC
Which levels of care does Lebanon VAMC have?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Wernersville is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Lebanon VAMC offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Wernersville, 6.6 miles away.
What special programs does Lebanon VAMC offer?
One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 13 named here.
Does Lebanon VAMC treat older adults?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Reading.
Do I have to come in person to Lebanon VAMC?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Reading often still has to be in person.
Is there anything in Reading besides paid treatment?
Alongside this, Reading has 16 NA meetings and 53 free AA meetings.
What do I need to have with me on day one?
Identification, insurance details, prescriptions in their labeled containers, and about a week of clothes. An outpatient program needs almost none of this, just the documents and the appointment time. Ask whether there is a laundry, because the answer halves what you need to bring.
What happens to school?
Outpatient programs run early and late for exactly this reason, so many people are treated without taking leave. A human resources department normally needs dates and a clinician's note rather than details of the condition. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
