Questions people ask about Westside Family Healthcare
Is Westside Family Healthcare residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and New Castle is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Westside Family Healthcare offers?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Wilmington, 5.1 miles away.
Does Westside Family Healthcare have beds?
Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is under a mile away in Wilmington.
Are there alternatives to Westside Family Healthcare?
There are 8 more within a short drive of Wilmington, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Westside Family Healthcare?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Wilmington, not all of them do.
Does Westside Family Healthcare treat people who are pregnant?
They treat pregnant and postpartum clients. Ask whether prenatal care is on site or coordinated with somewhere else in Wilmington.
What questions should I ask a center?
Accreditation, staffing, medication policy and aftercare are the four that tell you most. Distance from home cuts both ways: far enough to break a pattern, near enough for family to take part. Ask what license is held by the person who would actually be treating you.
Is treatment confidential?
A program treats the fact that you are there as confidential by default, including from whoever is paying. Who you authorize, and what they are authorized to hear, are two separate choices on the same form. Ask who the center is allowed to speak to, and make sure the answer matches what you want.
