Questions people ask about Unison Behavioral Health/Ware County

What kind of care does Unison Behavioral Health/Ware County provide?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Waycross has 4 other centers within 14 miles.

Can you detox at Unison Behavioral Health/Ware County?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Waycross, 3.9 miles away.

Can a 16 year old be treated at Unison Behavioral Health/Ware County?

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Waycross.

Is there a residential program at Unison Behavioral Health/Ware County?

They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Waycross has the nearest beds, a few streets away.

Are there free support meetings in Waycross?

Waycross has 3 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

How many other options are in this area?

4 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Waycross.

Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?

They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Keep your own prescriber in the loop rather than letting the handover happen by itself.

What if this is not the first time?

A previous attempt is information rather than a mark against you. A return to use that followed a move, a job loss or a death is a different problem from one with no obvious trigger. Tell the program what the last attempt included, so this one can be different.
