Is there family counseling?

Family sessions, education evenings and a visiting schedule are the usual shape of it. Living with somebody in early recovery changes a household's routine, and family sessions are where that gets planned. Ask what the household should have in place before the first weekend at home.

How long does the first call take?

Someone asks what is going on, what has been tried before, and what insurance you have. Understating the amount is the common mistake, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Have your insurance card and a list of medications next to you.

Does my employer find out?

A treatment program cannot confirm to a caller that you are there without your written permission. Where an employer is funding treatment, it is normally told that you attended and not what was discussed. Ask who the center is allowed to speak to, and make sure the answer matches what you want.
