Woodland Centers

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Willmar has 4 other centers within 14 miles.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Willmar offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Willmar, and there are 4 inside 14 miles.

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because mental health treatment and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Willmar may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Willmar.

The month after a program is the one that needs a schedule, and aftercare is that schedule. A recurrence in the first month is common, and a plan that anticipates it is worth more than one that does not. Ask who to ring at two in the morning, and get the number written down.

It starts with a short assessment: the substance, the pattern, your health, and where you live. Having your insurance card in front of you shortens the whole thing considerably. Ask what the assessment after this call involves and whether it happens in person.

Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. Colleges handle this through a medical leave process, which normally leaves a better record than an incomplete semester. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
