Does Montefiore Medical Center treat people in Spanish?

Spanish is one of 4 languages they work in beyond English, alongside Sign language, Creole and French, which is a wider range than most of Bronx.

Is Montefiore Medical Center an option for someone over 65?

They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Bronx that often means one room rather than two.

Is there family counseling?

There is almost always a family role, and centers differ most in how early it starts. What a center can tell a family member is limited by privacy law, and that limit holds even for a parent of an adult. Ask what the center expects from the household on the day the program ends.

What do I need to have with me on day one?

A short list: id, insurance, medications, clothes, and the phone numbers you would not want to lose. Chargers, razors and anything with a cord are often held and signed out when needed rather than kept in the room. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.

What happens to school?

There is usually a way to do this that does not cost you the job, and it is worth asking before assuming. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
