Cottonwood Tucson

They provide outpatient, inpatient residential, inpatient hospital and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Tucson is set up for.

They handle detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Tucson has 8 other centers to compare.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Tucson it may be mixed.

There are 8 more within a short drive of Tucson, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because mental health treatment and transitional services covers a lot of ground and Tucson may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

Prescriptions are usually kept going, and changing one is a decision for a prescriber rather than a policy. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Write the list with doses and prescriber names before the first call.

The number quoted is almost always the first block, and the whole arc of treatment runs longer than that block. Aftercare has no end date, and it is the part that runs alongside ordinary life. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.

Three medications sit under that phrase, and which one suits someone is a clinical decision. Treatment that combines medication with counseling holds people in care longer than either on its own. Ask what happens to the prescription on the day the program ends.
