Questions people ask about Newport Academy - Teen Treatment
What levels of care does Newport Academy - Teen Treatment offer?
They are set up for 1 level: inpatient residential. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Darien, 1 offers a bed.
Can you detox at Newport Academy - Teen Treatment?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Norwalk, 2.6 miles away.
Is there anywhere else close by?
Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Norwalk and Stamford.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Newport Academy - Teen Treatment?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Darien.
Are there free support meetings in Darien?
Darien has 12 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Newport Academy - Teen Treatment?
No. If medication matters to you ask directly, because it is the hardest thing to change later and not every place around Darien offers it.
Is there family counseling?
Treatment that involves the household tends to hold up better than treatment that does not. Visiting is usually restricted in the first week and opens up later. If you are calling about someone else, say so at the start and the conversation will fit.
Can I start this week?
Publicly funded residential programs tend to have the longest lists and the lowest cost. Many programs start the paperwork while you wait, so the day a bed opens is not lost to admissions. Ask what the fastest route into treatment is this week, and take that answer seriously.
