Questions people ask about Weeks Medical Center
What levels of care does Weeks Medical Center offer?
They offer inpatient hospital, outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Lancaster has 1 other center within 14 miles.
Does Weeks Medical Center offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Lancaster offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Lancaster often still has to be in person.
Is treatment available in a language other than English?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Lancaster are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
Are there free support meetings in Lancaster?
Lancaster has 4 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Weeks Medical Center?
They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Lancaster about a teenager is in the right place.
What happens when I call?
The questions are much the same wherever you call, because every intake line is screening for the same few things. Medical history matters here: seizures, pregnancy, heart problems and current prescriptions all change the plan. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
Can someone go back into treatment?
Going back into treatment is normal, and most centers treat people who have been through it before. A different level of care is often the right response rather than a repeat of the same program. Tell the program what the last attempt included, so this one can be different.
