Questions people ask about Stonington Institute

What levels of care does Stonington Institute offer?

They provide outpatient. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and New London is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does Stonington Institute offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New London, 2.3 miles away.

Can Stonington Institute handle a court referral?

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Groton has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.

Is there a residential program at Stonington Institute?

Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is 2.3 miles away in New London.

Does Stonington Institute prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Groton offers both.

Is Stonington Institute 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 Groton.

What if there is depression or anxiety as well?

Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. Not every center has a prescriber for psychiatric medication, and that is a concrete difference to ask about. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.

What if someone has been to treatment before?

Nobody is turned away for having been through a program before. Where the first attempt had no medication and no aftercare, those are the two obvious things to change. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
