Can you stay overnight at JEM Treatment Inc?

How do I choose between two centers?
Four questions separate most programs: who prescribes, what the step down is, what it costs, and who it is built for. A program willing to tell you who it is not suitable for is usually being straight with you about the rest. Write down four questions and ask every place the same four.
Can I start this week?
Sometimes, and it depends far more on the level of care than on the center. The longest lists tend to sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Say clearly how urgent it is, including any medical risk, because that changes the queue.
