Questions people ask about Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham

What kind of care does Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham provide?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Waltham has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Can you detox at Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Weston, 2.4 miles away.

Can Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham handle a dual diagnosis?

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because transitional services and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Waltham may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

Who are the programs at Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham built for?

One of their programs is built for people who are pregnant or just postpartum, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 8 named here.

Can Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham treat someone who does not speak English?

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Waltham does.

Is medication assisted treatment available at Spectrum Health Systems Inc - Waltham?

They prescribe 2 medications: methadone and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Waltham.

Is the first call an assessment?

The first conversation is mostly questions about what is being used, how much, and for how long. The call can be made by a relative, and intake lines deal with that constantly. Ask what happens between the call and the first day, and who is responsible for each part.

Is treatment confidential?

Treatment records for substance use are held under a federal rule that is stricter than the one covering ordinary medical records. A mandated program reports attendance to whoever ordered it, and that is set by the order rather than by the center. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather ask these questions before giving a center your name.
