Questions people ask about YCSP
Which levels of care does YCSP have?
They offer outpatient, inpatient residential and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Alfred has 7 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at YCSP?
No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is 13 miles away in Saco.
Does YCSP prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 7 centers near Alfred, not all of them do.
Is there anywhere else close by?
There are 7 more within a short drive of Alfred, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Does YCSP treat people who are pregnant?
They treat pregnancy and the postpartum period, which matters because withdrawal in pregnancy is managed differently and not every place near Alfred is set up for it.
Does YCSP offer appointments by video?
They do video appointments, which matters if Alfred is a drive for you.
What is the family's part in this?
Most programs include family sessions, and many treat the family as part of the work rather than as visitors. What a center can tell a family member is limited by privacy law, and that limit holds even for a parent of an adult. Ask how often the family sessions meet and whether they happen in person.
Does my employer find out?
Legally it is private, including from family, and including from an employer who is paying. That rule exists because people avoided treatment when they could not rely on it, which is worth knowing when you weigh it. Ask for a copy of any release you sign, and read what it covers.
