About The Ringer Center
The Ringer Center in Greensboro, North Carolina, has been rated in the top three addiction treatment centers in Greensboro. To cover treatment costs they accept Medicaid, Medicare and most other insurances. Those without insurance coverage can set up a payment plan.
Substance Use Treatments
Their substance abuse intensive outpatient program (IOP) has morning and evening sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to meet your scheduling needs. Tuesday nights are when clients and their family members or support persons attend sessions. Therapy covers medical support, mental health care, and life skills training to support clients in their recovery and sobriety.
Alcohol and drug treatments include an outpatient detox service if needed. The program offers individual, group, and family therapy with sessions available morning, noon, and evenings.
Their ambulatory drug detoxification is provided as an outpatient service and is used in conjunction with IOP services. Opiate users are given Suboxone for a period of seven to 10 days. Alcohol users are given Librium for a period of five to seven days.
Legally Required Treatments
DWI assessments are offered for $100. If you are also required to complete a substance abuse program, insurances will typically cover those services at this center.
Their First Offenders Program fulfills common legal requirements related to DWIs. An initial evaluation will determine what services each individual client needs to avoid future charges.
The center is also certified to provide DOT assessments for clients that tested positive for alcohol or drugs. The client can be started in this process within 24 to 48 hours.
