Tarzana Treatment Centers Inc

They offer outpatient, detox and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Palmdale has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

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 Palmdale.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Palmdale may not have a second place set up for it.

Palmdale has 1 free AA meeting as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Palmdale.

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. A release of information is how that changes, it is signed by you, and it can name one person and one purpose. Decide who you want kept informed before the day rather than during it.

It happens to most people at some point, and it says nothing about whether this will work. Programs will usually ask what happened last time, and the answer shapes what they offer. Ask whether the program takes somebody back directly or wants a fresh assessment first.

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Phones are allowed at some centers, restricted at others, and the rule is often different in the first week. Ask whether there is a laundry, because the answer halves what you need to bring.
