Questions people ask about Shoreline Family Healthcare
Is Shoreline Family Healthcare residential or day treatment?
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 New Haven is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Shoreline Family Healthcare offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New Haven, 3.5 miles away.
Does Shoreline Family Healthcare treat older adults?
They treat seniors. Interactions with the medications an older adult is already taking are the usual reason it matters, so ask who reviews them in Branford.
Is there an interpreter at Shoreline Family Healthcare?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Branford does.
Does Shoreline Family Healthcare have beds?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Branford has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Does Shoreline Family Healthcare treat mental health as well?
They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adolescents, adult men, adult women, hiv/aids, lgbtq, pain management, past domestic violence, past sexual abuse, past trauma and pregnant/postpartum.
What is different about mandated treatment?
Plenty of programs accept referrals from a court, a probation officer or a child welfare agency. The court usually specifies a level of care or a number of hours, and that narrows which programs qualify. Check whether the program is approved for your specific order before enrolling in it.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
Treatment often qualifies for job protected medical leave, though the rules depend on the employer's size and your length of service. Federal medical leave covers employers above a staff threshold and employees who have been there long enough, so it does not reach everyone. Ask the program for a date it will confirm in writing, because a leave request needs a date rather than an intention.
