Is 30 days enough?
Lengths vary by level of care more than by center, and outpatient is the long one. Two centers quoting the same number of days can mean very different hours of treatment inside them. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.
What if there is no space?
It varies from same day to a month, and the only way to know is to ask on the day you are ready. The longest lists tend to sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Ask whether the wait changes if you are willing to start at a different level of care.
