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

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Albuquerque, a few streets away.

Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 4 things they offer a named program for.

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Albuquerque.

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

Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Call (844) 822-5800 if a specific prescription is the thing making this complicated.

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Ask whether you can bring your own pillow, because the answer is often yes and it helps.

You are rarely obliged to give a diagnosis to an employer, only a medical reason for leave. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed.
