What happens when I call?
Somebody works through a short list: the substance, the amount, the history, the insurance. The person answering is usually trained to screen rather than to treat, so a full history is not needed yet. Ask what the next step is and who is responsible for arranging it.
Should I live at the center?
The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. Intensive outpatient care at several hours a day is closer to a residential program than to a weekly appointment. Ask for an assessment before anybody recommends a level of care to you.
