Questions people ask about Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc
Is Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc inpatient or outpatient?
They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Albany, 2 offer a bed.
Does Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc offer a detox?
No. There is no detox listed near Albany at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.
Who are the programs at Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc built for?
They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Albany has 8 other centers to ask.
Is there a residential program at Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Albany.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They do video appointments, which matters if Albany is a drive for you.
Does Whitney M Young Jr Health Center Inc treat older adults?
They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Albany that often means one room rather than two.
Can a program handle a court referral?
Being sent rather than choosing to go changes the paperwork more than it changes the treatment. What gets reported is normally attendance rather than anything said in a session. Confirm the program is on the approved list before the first session rather than after it.
Can I get in today?
It depends on the level of care and on the week, which is why only a phone call can answer it. Private programs typically have shorter waits and higher prices, and both facts are part of the same picture. Ask what is available this week, not just what the program is.
