Questions people ask about Newport Academy

Is Newport Academy residential or day treatment?

They offer outpatient, inpatient residential and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Stamford has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Can you detox at Newport Academy?

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Stamford offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Can I do this by video instead?

They do video appointments, which matters if Stamford is a drive for you.

Is there a program at Newport Academy for people like me?

People dealing with past trauma are one of the 3 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

Is medication assisted treatment available at Newport Academy?

They prescribe buprenorphine, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Stamford.

Which level of care do I need?

The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. If you are told you need the most expensive option before anyone has asked you anything, get a second opinion.

What if someone has been to treatment before?

A previous attempt is information rather than a mark against you. A recurrence after a long gap and one in the first week are different problems with different answers. Ask what this program would do differently from the last one.

How soon could someone start?

Availability changes week to week, which is why no listing page can tell you. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Ask what you should do in the meantime, because a good program will have an answer.
