Questions people ask about Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc

What programs does Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc offer?

They provide inpatient residential and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Downey is set up for.

Can you detox at Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc?

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Downey.

Is treatment available in Spanish at Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc?

They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Downey are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.

Is Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc an option for a veteran?

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Downey it may be mixed.

Are there other centers near Southern CA Alcohol and Drug Prog Inc?

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

Should I live at the center?

Residential care is a bed and a program. Outpatient care is a schedule of appointments. Withdrawal from alcohol or from benzodiazepines can be medically dangerous, which pushes the choice toward supervised care. Say plainly who else is in the house and what they are using, because it changes the answer.

Do I need medication to stop?

It means a doctor is involved and a prescription is part of what holds the first months together. Alcohol use disorder has prescribed options of its own, which is worth raising because the phrase is usually explained in terms of opioids. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.

What if someone has been to treatment before?

Nobody is turned away for having been through a program before. A recurrence after a long gap and one in the first week are different problems with different answers. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look at what to change rather than repeat.
