What happens when I call?
The point of the call is to work out which level of care fits, which takes a handful of questions. A call outside office hours often reaches an answering service rather than an intake worker, which is worth knowing before judging a program by it. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
Do I need to stay overnight?
One removes you from the situation and the other treats you inside it, and that is the whole of the decision. The higher level is not automatically the better one, and being placed above what you need is its own problem. Describe the house you would be going back to, because that is the detail that decides it.
Do I have to tell my employer?
Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Ask the center what paperwork they can provide for an employer, and what it will and will not say.
