Substance Abuse Center of Kansas

They offer inpatient residential and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Wichita has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They handle detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Wichita has 8 other centers to compare.

Wichita has 46 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

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

They treat older adults, along with young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64, which is a wider range than most places listed near Wichita cover.

They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Stopping a psychiatric medication abruptly can cause real harm, which is why this is never a decision to make alone. Take the labeled containers rather than a week of loose pills in an organizer.

A short list: id, insurance, medications, clothes, and the phone numbers you would not want to lose. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Ask what the first twenty four hours look like, because that is what you are packing for.

Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. Some professions have licensing bodies with their own reporting rules, and those are worth checking separately. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
