Northeast Treatment Centers - Net Steps

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 Merchantville is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Philadelphia, 2.9 miles away.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Philadelphia has 8 other centers to try.

People who are pregnant or just postpartum are one of the 8 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

Philadelphia has 13 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

They prescribe methadone and buprenorphine, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Philadelphia, not all of them do.

The useful questions are the ones answerable with a fact: who prescribes, what the schedule is, what follows it. Paying a marketing company for referrals is common in this field, so who answers the phone is not always who treats you. Write down four questions and ask every place the same four.

The paperwork, the medication in its labeled containers, and about a week of ordinary clothes. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Write the medication list before you pack anything, with the doses and who prescribed them.
