Pacific Sands Recovery Center

They provide inpatient residential and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Fountain Valley is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Santa Ana.

They offer a program for veterans. Whether they bill the VA is a separate question, and the answer differs between places even inside Santa Ana.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Santa Ana.

Alongside this, Santa Ana has 26 NA meetings and 299 free AA meetings.

Treating the substance use and leaving a diagnosis untouched is a common reason a first attempt does not hold. Trauma focused therapy is offered by some programs and not others, and it is a specific skill rather than a general one. Ask whether both conditions are handled by one team or passed between two.

The legal protection on addiction treatment records is stronger than the one covering the rest of your medical file. The protection reaches further than general medical privacy does, which is why a center will not take a message for you either. You can ask all of this without committing to anything.

Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. Where an employer offers an assistance program, it is usually confidential and separate from your manager. Read your own leave policy before telling anybody anything.
