Boulware Mission Inc - Addiction Services

They are set up for 2 levels: inpatient residential and detox. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Owensboro, 2 offer a bed.

They handle detox for opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Owensboro has 8 other centers to compare.

One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 11 named here.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Ask whether the groups are split by age, because in Owensboro that can mean one mixed room rather than several.

They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Owensboro has 8 other centers.

Court ordered treatment is routine, and programs that take it are used to the paperwork. A program that is not approved by the relevant court will not satisfy the order, however good it is. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look for programs that take referrals in KY.

The list should include anything stopped recently, because a recent change matters as much as a current dose. Pregnancy changes medication decisions substantially and needs specialist input. Write the full list with doses and prescribers before you call anyone.

There is usually a way to do this that does not cost you the job, and it is worth asking before assuming. Schools and colleges have their own leave of absence process, and a medical withdrawal is often reversible. Keep a copy of everything you send and every date you were given.
