There are 8 more within a short drive of Baton Rouge, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Is the first call an assessment?
You will be asked about the drug, the dose, your medical history and your coverage. Where a program is not the right fit, a decent intake worker will say so and name somewhere else. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
A medical leave is the normal route, and the reason given to an employer can stay general. Where an employer offers an assistance program, it is usually confidential and separate from your manager. Ask the program what its letter to an employer actually says.
