Questions people ask about Lifeways
Which levels of care does Lifeways have?
They offer outpatient, inpatient residential and telemedicine. The practical difference is whether you sleep at home or at the center, and are 4 other centers inside 14 miles if neither suits.
Can you detox at Lifeways?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Jackson, 1.6 miles away.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Lifeways?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 4 centers near Jackson, not all of them do.
Is there anything in Jackson besides paid treatment?
Jackson has 9 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Is Lifeways an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Jackson.
Are there other centers close to Lifeways?
The nearest other center is 1.6 miles away, in Jackson, and there are 4 inside 14 miles.
What if I cannot pay for treatment?
It ranges from nothing at all, in a state funded program, to figures that need a payment plan. Nonprofit and faith based programs sometimes cost a fraction of commercial rates, with longer waits attached. Ask what the deposit is and whether any of it comes back if the program ends early.
Is a dual diagnosis treated in one place?
A mental health condition alongside substance use is the common case rather than the complicated one. A diagnosis made during active use is often revised later, so an early label is not the final word. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.
