Questions people ask about Ouachita Medical Center
Is Ouachita Medical Center residential or day treatment?
They treat people at inpatient hospital, outpatient and detox. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.
Can you detox at Ouachita Medical Center?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Camden that do it.
Does Ouachita Medical Center prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 1 medication: naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Camden.
Who are the programs at Ouachita Medical Center built for?
One of their programs is built for adult women, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 2 named here.
Are there other centers near Ouachita Medical Center?
Nothing else serves Camden inside 14 miles, which is worth knowing before you rule this one out rather than against it.
What is there in Camden that costs nothing?
Alongside this, Camden has 8 NA meetings and 9 free AA meetings.
What separates a good program from a bad one?
The useful comparisons are concrete: the level of care, whether there is a prescriber, what the aftercare is, and the cost. What a program arranges for the weeks after discharge says more about it than anything in its own description. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather have someone else do the comparing.
Should I live at the center?
One removes you from the situation and the other treats you inside it, and that is the whole of the decision. A residential stay is the easier thing to get approved when there is a documented medical reason for it. Ask whether they offer the middle levels, because many only offer the two ends.
