SUBOXONE THERAPY
Now available at the Siletz Community Health Clinic
Our providers Lisa Taylor, FNP, and
Jalien Dorris, DO, are now licensed to
prescribe suboxone for Siletz Tribal
members and/or community members
who are struggling with heroin, pre-
scription drugs or substance abuse. We
are contracting with Eric Davis, MAC,
CADCIII, with his expertise in medi-
cation assisted therapy (MAT), he will
assist with the implementation of our new
suboxone program.
Wondering what suboxone is? Subox-
one is a medication that helps your family
members who are struggling with heroin
and opioid addiction by taking away the
symptoms of opiate withdrawal and drug
cravings that are normally associated with
quitting heroin and opioids.
We encourage you to contact the clinic
and ask questions about our program. We
want to assure you that we will provide
compassionate and non-judgmental care
from staff members who understand the
challenges associated with addiction. We
would love to help you with taking the
first step toward recovery.
If you have questions regarding
the suboxone program or would like to
make an appointment, please call the
numbers listed below.
Team Taylor – 541-444-9665
Team Dorris – 541-444-9634
Ask Raven column returns to answer questions
about addiction, provide healthy perspective
After a long hiatus, Ask Raven has
returned. Many of you may be familiar
with Raven and some of you may not.
The next few months offer an opportunity
for those of you familiar with Raven to
welcome Raven back. For those who are
not familiar, it will be your chance to get
to know Raven.
After-hours crisis line now available
at 541-444-8286 or 800-600-5599
Because mental health and relapse
crises do not always happen during busi-
ness hours, Siletz Behavioral Health has
arranged a collaboration with an after-
hours crisis line called Lines for Life.
On weekends and during the weekday
hours of 5 p.m. to 8 a.m., the number to the
Behavioral Health front desk is forwarded
to Lines for Life, where you will be con-
nected with a live mental health counselor.
The counselor will do everything he/she
can to help de-escalate, advise and support.
Afterwards, this information can be
shared with our mental health counselor
so follow-up care can be provided.
Of course, if there is an emergency
and you fear that you or someone else is
in imminent danger, please call 911. That’s
always the fastest way to get help.
Raven is here to answer questions and
provide a healthy perspective on issues
around the disease of addiction. Addic-
tion can wreak havoc on any individual
and also their families. We all have been
impacted by addiction in some way.
In following with the times, Raven
can be contacted via confidential email at
Ask.Raven@ctsi.nsn.us.
Starting immediately, Raven will
begin to answer your questions via email.
Each month, one or two questions will be
published in Siletz News along with any
news that Raven wants to share.
All email will be confidential and for
those questions selected to be published,
they will only be published with the com-
munity member’s permission and will be
completely anonymous.
Raven is ready to start answering
your questions. Next month Raven will be
speaking with you directly.
Welcome back, Raven!
