RiverValley Behavioral Health - Cigar Factory Clinic

They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Owensboro, 3 offer a bed.

They handle detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Owensboro has 8 other centers to compare.

They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult men, adult women and court referrals.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Owensboro.

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

They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Owensboro has the nearest beds, a few streets away.

Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. A program that cannot tell you its staff to client ratio usually has a reason. Ask what happens if somebody wants to leave partway through, because the answer says a lot about how a place is run.

The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. Longer time in treatment is associated with better outcomes, which is why the step down to outpatient care matters. Ask what the step down looks like after the main program ends.
