Can Council on Alcoholism and DA of - Northwest Louisiana handle a court referral?

They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Shreveport send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.

Is medication assisted treatment available at Council on Alcoholism and DA of - Northwest Louisiana?

No. If medication matters to you ask directly, because it is the hardest thing to change later and not every place around Shreveport offers it.

Does Council on Alcoholism and DA of - Northwest Louisiana treat depression too?

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because transitional services and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Shreveport may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

What does stepping down look like?

A program that ends with nothing scheduled has handed you the hardest month with no structure in it. Nothing booked for the first week back is the most common gap in a discharge plan. Ask how the medication prescription continues after discharge, and who writes it.

Will they take my medication away?

Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. Pill organizers are often refused at the door, because medication has to arrive labeled. Ask whether there is a prescriber on site and how soon you would see them.
