Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Outpatient Methadone Clinic

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in South Weymouth, about a mile away, if you want something to compare it against.

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 1.6 miles away in South Weymouth.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Weymouth it may be mixed.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The nearest alternative is in South Weymouth, about a mile away, if the age is the thing that rules this one out.

They prescribe 3 medications: methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Weymouth.

It depends which level of care you are asking about, because they run on different clocks. Where a plan approves days in batches, the length you start with is not necessarily the length you get. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.

It depends on the level of care and on the week, which is why only a phone call can answer it. The gap between deciding and starting is where most people fall away, so a shorter wait has value of its own. Keep the phone on. Beds are offered at short notice and go quickly.

The documents matter: identification, insurance details, and anything a prescriber has written for you. A notebook and a couple of books are allowed almost everywhere and are worth more than most of what people pack. Ask what the phone rule is in the first week specifically, not in general.
