Questions people ask about South Coast Behavioral Health
Is South Coast Behavioral Health residential or day treatment?
They provide inpatient residential and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Costa Mesa is set up for.
Can you detox at South Coast Behavioral Health?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Costa Mesa.
What is there in Costa Mesa that costs nothing?
Alongside this, Costa Mesa has 21 NA meetings and 168 free AA meetings.
Who are the programs at South Coast Behavioral Health built for?
Veterans are one of the 6 groups they offer a dedicated program for.
Are there other centers near South Coast Behavioral Health?
Nothing else serves Costa Mesa inside 14 miles, which is worth knowing before you rule this one out rather than against it.
Is South Coast Behavioral Health an option for someone over 65?
They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Costa Mesa.
What about the medication my doctor prescribed?
They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Anything needing a blood test or a monthly injection has to be scheduled around the program, which is easier arranged before admission. Bring the containers with the labels on, not a bag of loose pills.
Do I have to tell my employer?
Outpatient programs run early and late for exactly this reason, so many people are treated without taking leave. An employer is generally entitled to dates and a clinician's confirmation, not to a diagnosis. Ask about evening and weekend schedules before ruling treatment out on time grounds.
