Questions people ask about Lifebridge Community Services - Outpatient Program
Is Lifebridge Community Services - Outpatient Program residential or day treatment?
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 Bridgeport is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Lifebridge Community Services - Outpatient Program offers?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Bridgeport, 2.6 miles away.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Lifebridge Community Services - Outpatient Program?
Yes. They treat people in Spanish. Confirm it for the first appointment specifically, because in Fairfield that can depend on who is rostered that day.
What is there in Fairfield that costs nothing?
Fairfield has 17 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Lifebridge Community Services - Outpatient Program?
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 Fairfield.
Do I have to stop my prescriptions?
Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Ask how soon after arrival you would see a prescriber.
What are the usual program lengths?
Most residential programs are built around 30 days, which is a billing convention more than a clinical finding. Two centers quoting the same number of days can mean very different hours of treatment inside them. Ask whether the length is set by the clinical team or by what your plan approves.
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Addiction treatment is a covered benefit on most plans sold today. Deductibles reset each year, so the timing of an admission changes the number. Ask which level of care the plan has already approved, and for how many days.
