Southern Highlands CMHC Inc

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Mullens has 1 other center within 14 miles.

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Rock View, 10 miles away.

They do video appointments, which matters if Mullens is a drive for you.

One of their programs is built for clients with a mental health diagnosis as well, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is the only one named here.

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 Mullens.

There is no fixed length. What is on offer tends to be a 30, 60 or 90 day program. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient sit between residential and standard outpatient care, at a few hours a day. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.

One place can take somebody today and another in the same town is a month out. The gap between deciding and starting is where most people fall away, so a shorter wait has value of its own. Ask what is available this week, not just what the program is.

You are rarely obliged to give a diagnosis to an employer, only a medical reason for leave. Some professions have licensing bodies with their own reporting rules, and those are worth checking separately. Ask the center what paperwork they can provide for an employer, and what it will and will not say.
