Questions people ask about Odyssey House Louisiana Inc

What programs does Odyssey House Louisiana Inc offer?

They provide inpatient residential and outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in New Orleans is set up for.

Is detox part of what Odyssey House Louisiana Inc offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New Orleans, under a mile away.

There are 8 more within a short drive of New Orleans, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Does Odyssey House Louisiana Inc treat mental health as well?

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 New Orleans that is the part that varies.

Is there an age limit at Odyssey House Louisiana Inc?

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25, alongside programs for adult men and adult women, which is more than most places around New Orleans name.

Should I live at the center?

The difference is where you sleep. Inpatient means you stay at the center, outpatient means you travel in for sessions. Medical risk pushes toward inpatient care: withdrawal that needs supervision is not an outpatient problem. Ask whether a center can carry out an assessment first rather than selling you a program.

Does medication replace counseling?

It is treatment that includes a prescription, most often buprenorphine, naltrexone or methadone. The objection that it swaps one drug for another misses the mechanism: a stable prescribed dose does not produce a high and does not escalate. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can find programs that use the medication you are asking about.

What is not allowed?

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Most residential programs search bags on arrival and hold anything they do not allow until you leave. Ask how much cash, if any, is useful to have with you.
