Questions people ask about Horsemens Benevolent and Protective

What treatment does Horsemens Benevolent and Protective offer?

They provide outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in Shreveport is set up for.

Is detox part of what Horsemens Benevolent and Protective offers?

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Shreveport offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Does Horsemens Benevolent and Protective treat older adults?

Older adults, plus young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask how the groups are arranged in Shreveport, because a wide age range often still means one room.

What is there in Shreveport that costs nothing?

Shreveport has 12 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Can you stay overnight at Horsemens Benevolent and Protective?

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Shreveport has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

Do I have to stop my prescriptions?

Prescriptions are usually kept going, and changing one is a decision for a prescriber rather than a policy. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Any change to what you take is a conversation with a prescriber, never a decision from a page like this.

How many weeks is a program?

Most residential programs are built around 30 days, which is a billing convention more than a clinical finding. Where a plan approves days in batches, the length you start with is not necessarily the length you get. Ask whether the length is set by the clinical team or by what your plan approves.

Can I start this week?

It depends on the level of care and on the week, which is why only a phone call can answer it. Many programs start the paperwork while you wait, so the day a bed opens is not lost to admissions. Say clearly how urgent it is, including any medical risk, because that changes the queue.
