Questions people ask about Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center - Milwaukee Health Services System LLC

What programs does Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center - Milwaukee Health Services System LLC offer?

They offer outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Wausau has 3 other centers within 14 miles.

What does Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center - Milwaukee Health Services System LLC detox from?

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Wausau.

Are there free support meetings in Wausau?

Wausau has 9 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Is there a pregnancy program at Wausau Comprehensive Treatment Center - Milwaukee Health Services System LLC?

They treat pregnancy and the postpartum period, which matters because withdrawal in pregnancy is managed differently and not every place near Wausau is set up for it.

Is there anything for the family?

Treatment that involves the household tends to hold up better than treatment that does not. Family education is often the part that changes how a household behaves, which is what the person comes home to. Ask how often the family sessions meet and whether they happen in person.

Is medication assisted treatment effective?

It is treatment that includes a prescription, most often buprenorphine, naltrexone or methadone. Not every center is licensed for every medication, so what is on offer varies more than the clinical picture does. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.

Does a relapse mean it failed?

Coming back after a return to use is one of the most ordinary things an intake line hears. A return to use that followed a move, a job loss or a death is a different problem from one with no obvious trigger. Ask what is arranged for the weeks after discharge specifically.
