Questions people ask about OBrien House
Which levels of care does OBrien House have?
They are set up for 2 levels: inpatient residential and outpatient. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Baton Rouge, 6 offer a bed.
Is detox part of what OBrien House offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Baton Rouge, 1.8 miles away.
Does OBrien House treat people who are pregnant?
They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Baton Rouge may not have a second place set up for it.
Is there an age limit at OBrien House?
They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Baton Rouge has 8 other centers to try.
Does OBrien House do co-occurring treatment?
They treat mental health alongside the substance use, so both sides are handled in one place. Ask whether the psychiatric side is on site, because in Baton Rouge that is the part that varies.
What does the first conversation cover?
Expect questions rather than a pitch, and expect them to be fairly direct. Having your insurance card in front of you shortens the whole thing considerably. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
How long would I be in a program?
There is no standard course. Programs are built in fixed lengths and people move between them. Longer time in treatment is associated with better outcomes, which is why the step down to outpatient care matters. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
Will my plan pay for rehab?
Often, though residential care is reviewed far more closely than outpatient care. Prior authorization is normal for a residential stay and unusual for a single outpatient visit. Get any authorization in writing, with the number of days it covers.
