Questions people ask about Mattie Rhodes Center
What levels of care does Mattie Rhodes Center offer?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Kansas City, 2 offer a bed.
Can you detox at Mattie Rhodes Center?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Kansas City, 3.4 miles away.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Kansas City.
Does Mattie Rhodes Center prescribe medication for opioid use?
No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and Kansas City has 8 other centers to compare.
Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Mattie Rhodes Center?
Yes. They treat people in Spanish. Confirm it for the first appointment specifically, because in Kansas City that can depend on who is rostered that day.
What are the usual program lengths?
Lengths vary by level of care more than by center, and outpatient is the long one. Outpatient programs often involve three to five sessions a week at first, then taper to one. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.
What do I need to have with me on day one?
A short list: id, insurance, medications, clothes, and the phone numbers you would not want to lose. An outpatient program needs almost none of this, just the documents and the appointment time. Sort out who has your keys, your mail and your animals before the day itself.
Will I lose my job?
Treatment often qualifies for job protected medical leave, though the rules depend on the employer's size and your length of service. Short term disability sometimes applies to a residential stay, depending on the policy. If a license or a clearance is involved, get advice specific to your profession.
