What questions should I ask a center?
Accreditation, staffing, medication policy and aftercare are the four that tell you most. A center that asks you a lot of questions before recommending anything is behaving correctly. Ask every place the same four questions and compare the answers side by side.
How long is the wait?
One program can take somebody today while another in the same town is a month out. The longest lists sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Ask what can be started while you wait.
Can I bring my phone?
Identification, insurance details, prescriptions in their labeled containers, and about a week of clothes. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
