Questions people ask about Washington County Mental Health Servs
Is Washington County Mental Health Servs residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient. The nearest alternative is in Barre, 3.2 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.
Is detox part of what Washington County Mental Health Servs offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Montpelier offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Washington County Mental Health Servs prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 1 medication: buprenorphine. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Montpelier.
Is there anything in Montpelier besides paid treatment?
Montpelier has 13 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Can you stay overnight at Washington County Mental Health Servs?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Montpelier has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
What happens when I call?
Someone asks what is going on, what has been tried before, and what insurance you have. A call outside office hours often reaches an answering service rather than an intake worker, which is worth knowing before judging a program by it. Ask for the name of whoever you spoke to, so the second call starts where the first ended.
Is what I say in a session confidential?
A program treats the fact that you are there as confidential by default, including from whoever is paying. Insurance claims do create a record with the insurer, which is the usual route by which treatment becomes visible. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
What do I pack for a stay?
Identification, insurance details, prescriptions in their labeled containers, and about a week of clothes. Clothing rules exist at many places, usually about what is written on it rather than what it costs. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
