Questions people ask about Urgent Care/Metairie
What programs does Urgent Care/Metairie offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Metairie has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Urgent Care/Metairie?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Metairie, a few streets away.
Are there alternatives to Urgent Care/Metairie?
Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across New Orleans and Kenner.
Can any of this be done remotely?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Metairie differ on it.
Does Urgent Care/Metairie have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Metairie.
Does Urgent Care/Metairie treat older adults?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Metairie.
What will I actually pay?
Ask three centers and you will get three different figures, because they are pricing three different programs. A center that takes your plan will usually quote your share rather than the full price, which makes two quotes hard to compare. Ask for the itemized version rather than a single total, because the surprises sit in the line items.
Is a second attempt treated differently?
Nobody is turned away for having been through a program before. Overdose risk is highest just after a period of not using, which is worth knowing by itself. Ask whether the program takes somebody back directly or wants a fresh assessment first.
