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

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 1.5 miles away in Fargo.

They provide outpatient care and not a residential stay, so there is no bed to wait for. The nearest place with one is in Fargo, 1.5 miles away.

Expect days for withdrawal management, weeks for a residential program, and months for anything outpatient. The stretch after the main program usually runs far longer than the program did, and it is the part people underestimate. Call (844) 822-5800 to talk through which level of care fits what you are dealing with.

Photo id, your insurance card, and a list of every medication you take with the doses. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Ask whether you can bring your own pillow, because the answer is often yes and it helps.
