No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Murray offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Murray.

Murray has 4 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Murray may not have a second place set up for it.

Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. Treating one and postponing the other is the pattern that sends people back for a second attempt. Ask whether both are treated in the same place or one after the other.

Treatment that involves the household tends to hold up better than treatment that does not. A release of information, signed by the patient, is what opens that door, and it can be narrow or wide. Ask about the release of information early, because without it the updates stop.

Medication is one tool in a program, and for opioid use disorder it is the one with the strongest evidence behind it. Treatment that combines medication with counseling holds people in care longer than either on its own. Ask whether the medication can start during detox or only after it ends.
