Does Interfaith Medical Center have beds?
They provide outpatient care and not a residential stay, so there is no bed to wait for. The nearest place with one is in Brooklyn, under a mile away.
Does Interfaith Medical Center treat older adults?
They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Brooklyn.
Who answers the phone?
Expect questions rather than a sales pitch, and expect them to be direct. A family member can make the call and answer much of this, though some questions only the person using can answer. Ask for the name of whoever you spoke to, so the second call starts where the first ended.
Do I have to tell my boss?
You are rarely obliged to give a diagnosis to an employer, only a medical reason for leave. Where a workplace runs an assistance program it usually sits outside the management chain and keeps what it is told. Ask whether a schedule outside working hours exists before ruling treatment out.
