Questions people ask about MERIT Resource Services - Kennewick
Is MERIT Resource Services - Kennewick inpatient or outpatient?
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 Richland is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what MERIT Resource Services - Kennewick offers?
No detox, here or anywhere listed within 14 miles of Kennewick. Ask whether they will take somebody straight after a detox done elsewhere, because most will.
Does MERIT Resource Services - Kennewick have beds?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Kennewick has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Is there anywhere else close by?
8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them under a mile away in Kennewick.
Does MERIT Resource Services - Kennewick treat teenagers?
They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Kennewick specifically.
Is methadone treatment on its own?
Medication is one tool in a program, and for opioid use disorder it is the one with the strongest evidence behind it. Alcohol use disorder has prescribed options of its own, which is worth raising because the phrase is usually explained in terms of opioids. If a program rules medication out entirely, it is worth knowing that before you arrive.
Is what I say in a session confidential?
A program treats your presence there as confidential by default, including from whoever is paying. Insurance claims do create a record with the insurer, which is the usual route by which treatment becomes visible. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
Can I get in today?
One program can take somebody today while another in the same town is a month out. Many programs offer an interim option while you wait, usually outpatient sessions or a daily check in. Keep the phone on. Beds are offered at short notice and go quickly.
