Questions people ask about AMAAD Institute

What treatment does AMAAD Institute offer?

They are set up for 1 level: outpatient. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Los Angeles, 2 offer a bed.

Is detox part of what AMAAD Institute offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Los Angeles, about a mile away.

Is there anything in Los Angeles besides paid treatment?

Los Angeles has 79 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Is there a residential program at AMAAD Institute?

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

Is medication assisted treatment available at AMAAD Institute?

They do not prescribe it. Ask them who they refer to, because somewhere among the 8 centers near Los Angeles will.

What should I be comparing?

Four questions separate most programs: who prescribes, what the step down is, what it costs, and who it is built for. Who delivers the therapy matters: licensed clinicians and counselors in training are not the same thing. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.

Can I bring my own medication?

They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Where a program has no prescriber, your own doctor stays in charge of what you take. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.

Can family be involved in treatment?

Involvement is common, and so are limits on it, set by the person being treated. Where children are involved, some programs can keep a parent and child together and most cannot. Ask what the center expects from the household on the day the program ends.
