Questions people ask about Weems Community MH Center
What treatment does Weems Community MH Center offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Quitman is set up for.
Does Weems Community MH Center offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Quitman offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Weems Community MH Center have beds?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Quitman has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Are there other options nearby?
There is nothing else within 14 miles of Quitman, so the next option is a longer drive.
What is there in Quitman that costs nothing?
Quitman has 3 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Does medication replace counseling?
Medication assisted treatment means a prescribed medicine is part of the plan, alongside counseling rather than instead of it. Alcohol use disorder has prescribed options of its own, which is worth raising because the phrase is usually explained in terms of opioids. Ask whether the medication can start during detox or only after it ends.
Who finds out that I went to treatment?
The legal protection on addiction treatment records is stronger than the one covering the rest of your medical file. There are narrow exceptions, including a medical emergency and a court order, and they are narrower than people assume. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
What happens to school?
Residential care means time away. Outpatient care usually does not. An employer generally needs the dates and a clinician's confirmation rather than the condition itself. If a license or a clearance is involved, get advice specific to your profession.
