Newport News Behavioral Health Center

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

They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Newport News has 8 other centers to ask.

They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, which in Newport News is worth confirming before you drive over.

They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Newport News has 8 other centers.

A program will want the full list on day one, including anything over the counter. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Keep whoever prescribes for you informed rather than assuming a handover happens by itself.

The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. The stretch after the main program usually runs far longer than the program did, and it is the part people underestimate. Ask whether the length is set by the clinical team or by what your plan approves.
