GETTING STARTED (Frequently Asked Questions) | ||||
|
I'm not sure if I need treatment or what sort of treatment I need. The staff at any of our programs can do a quick screening and then direct you to the services that may be best suited for you. You can also check our resources page to link to various help web-sites, or this test for alcohol abuse, or this test for drug abuse could help you determine if you have a problem. Who do I need to talk to about getting into treatment? Any one of our staff members can refer you to the correct person depending on your specific situation and location. What areas do you serve? We have facilities across Michigan's Upper Peninsula and we accept clients from anywhere in the United States. What does it cost? Many of our clients have all or part of the cost of treatment covered by funding agencies or insurance. A representative at our business office can offer you more specific information based on your situation. Will my information be protected? Yes. We strictly abide by Federal Law 42 CFR, part 2 that protects the confidentiality of anyone in substance abuse treatment and the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) which protects clients medical information. How long is treatment? That will depend on your specific situation. Once a screening is completed we can better answer your question. For a screening please contact the GLRC service location nearest you. What information will I need to have? You will need to present your full name, place of residence, your social security number, your income over the past year, your insurance carrier including your plan code and group number, if applicable. We will also need honest information on your drinking and /or drug use. We may also need contact information for your parent or guardian, parole officer and /or your primary physician. What will I bring with me to residential treatment? You will need to bring 2 weeks worth of clothing appropriate for the season, a tooth brush, other toiletries you may need, and any and all prescribed medications, as well as any unopened over the counter medications that you are taking. What materials should I leave at home? Inappropriate clothing i.e. drug or alcohol related, short shorts, half- shirts, drug paraphernalia, and any opened over the counter medications. |
