Questions people ask about Volunteer Behavioral Health

Can you detox at Volunteer Behavioral Health?

What special programs does Volunteer Behavioral Health offer?
They offer a program for people who are pregnant or just postpartum, which not every center around Cookeville does.
Is telehealth available at Volunteer Behavioral Health?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 7 centers near Cookeville differ on it.
Is there anywhere else close by?
There are 7 more within a short drive of Cookeville, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
What does the court need from the program?
Most of the programs listed here take mandated clients. A program that is not approved by the relevant court will not satisfy the order, however good it is. Ask who signs the completion paperwork and how long it takes.
Can I go back after a relapse?
Coming back after a return to use is one of the most ordinary things an intake line hears. Tolerance drops during any period of abstinence, which makes the first use after treatment the most dangerous one. Say what happened last time, because it is the most useful thing you can tell an intake worker.
Will I lose my job?
It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. Some professions have licensing bodies with their own reporting rules, and those are worth checking separately. Ask about evening and weekend schedules before ruling treatment out on time grounds.
