Questions people ask about Mental Health Systems Inc
What levels of care does Mental Health Systems Inc offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and San Diego has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Mental Health Systems Inc?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in San Diego, under a mile away.
Can you stay overnight at Mental Health Systems Inc?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in San Diego.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Mental Health Systems Inc?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near San Diego offers both.
Is Mental Health Systems Inc an option for a veteran?
Veterans are one of the 5 groups they offer a program for.
How long is the wait?
Publicly funded residential programs tend to have the longest lists and the lowest cost. The gap between deciding and starting is where most people fall away, so a shorter wait has value of its own. Ask to be told if an earlier place opens, then check back rather than waiting to be called.
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. Clothing rules exist at many places, usually about what is written on it rather than what it costs. Sort the keys, the mail and the animals before the day rather than on it.
Do I have to tell my employer?
Outpatient programs are built around working hours precisely because most people cannot stop working. A human resources department normally needs dates and a clinician's note rather than details of the condition. Ask whether a schedule outside working hours exists before ruling treatment out.
