Who answers the phone?
Expect questions rather than a sales pitch, and expect them to be direct. The call can end with nothing booked, and often does. Write down who you spoke to and what they committed to.
Does medication replace counseling?
It is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended, and it is standard care for opioid use. The objection that it swaps one drug for another misses the mechanism: a stable prescribed dose does not produce a high and does not escalate. What you are already taking is part of this conversation, so bring the list.
Can I get in today?
Outpatient care usually starts within days. A residential bed can be immediate or weeks out. A wait for residential care is not a wait for all care, and the lower levels often start sooner. Ask who to call if things get worse while you are waiting, and write that number down.
