What other centers are nearby?

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them under a mile away in Waukegan.

How long would I be in a program?

Most residential programs are built around 30 days, which is a billing convention more than a clinical finding. A plan may approve days in batches and review before extending, so the length can change while you are in it. Ask what the program length is and what happens if more time is needed.

Should I live at the center?

Inpatient takes you out of your life for a while. Outpatient treats you inside it. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient fill the gap, with several hours of treatment a day and your own bed at night. Ask for an assessment before anybody recommends a level of care to you.

Is a second attempt treated differently?

Treatment is not usually a single event, and the first attempt teaching you something is part of how it works. The level of care that fits now may not be the one that fit before. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look at what to change rather than repeat.
