Springboard Center

They provide inpatient residential, inpatient hospital, outpatient and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Midland is set up for.

They provide detox for 5 substances: opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Whether a bed is free this week is a question for the call, and Midland has 4 other centers.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Ask whether the groups are split by age, because in Midland that can mean one mixed room rather than several.

They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Midland are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.

Alongside this, Midland has 9 NA meetings and 5 free AA meetings.

Nobody prices this from a listing. It turns on the level of care, the length, and what a plan is willing to approve. Nonprofit and faith based programs sometimes cost a fraction of commercial rates, with longer waits attached. Ask whether detox is included in the figure, because very often it is billed on its own.

Most of what you take carries on. The exceptions are decided clinically rather than by policy. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.

A medical leave is the normal route, and the reason given to an employer can stay general. Colleges handle this through a medical leave process, which normally leaves a better record than an incomplete semester. Read your own leave policy before telling anybody anything.
