Does University Health Behavioral Health have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Kansas City.
What will I be asked on the phone?
It is a screening conversation, and the answers decide what gets suggested. Understating the amount is the common mistake, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.
What do I need to pack for a residential program?
Think documents and medication first, comforts second. Vitamins and anything over the counter are treated as medication and get checked the same way. Leave anything valuable at home rather than arguing about it at intake.
