First Step Recovery of Warren

They treat people at inpatient hospital, outpatient, inpatient residential, detox and telemedicine. Outpatient keeps you at home and working, and a residential stay takes you out of the place you were using in.

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Warren that do it.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Warren.

They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Warren send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Warren are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

There is nothing else within 14 miles of Warren, so the next option is a longer drive.

A mental health condition alongside substance use is the common case rather than the complicated one. A diagnosis made while someone is still using can be wrong, so assessment often waits until after detox. Bring any existing diagnosis and the name of whoever is treating it.

There is a difference between asking for leave in advance and explaining an absence afterward, and the first position is much stronger. Where an employer offers an assistance program, it is usually confidential and separate from your manager. Ask whether the program can start on a date that fits a leave request.
