Recovery Point of Charleston

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

No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is under a mile away in Charleston.

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Charleston has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.

Charleston has 16 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Charleston.

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Charleston often still has to be in person.

It is a screening conversation: what is being used, how much, your health, and what you are covered for. Where a program is not the right fit, a decent intake worker will say so and name somewhere else. Call (844) 822-5800 and that first conversation can happen now rather than being scheduled.

The choice is normally made on medical risk and on what home looks like, in that order. The higher level is not automatically the better one, and being placed above what you need is its own problem. Ask for an assessment rather than a recommendation, then ask what the assessment found.
