Volunteer Behavioral Health - Franklin Campus

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Brentwood is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Franklin, 3.6 miles away.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Franklin are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

They do video appointments, which matters if Franklin is a drive for you.

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Franklin.

There is no price on this site, because what a program costs depends on the level of care and on your plan. A quote is usually a daily rate times an expected length, so the cheaper number sometimes just buys fewer days. Ask whether detox is included in the figure, because very often it is billed on its own.

There is almost always a family role, and centers differ most in how early it starts. What a center can tell a family member is limited by privacy law, and that limit holds even for a parent of an adult. Write down your questions before the call, because they are easy to lose in it.

Think documents and medication first, comforts second. A written packing list exists at almost every residential program, and asking for it saves an argument at intake. Ask whether you can bring your own pillow, because the answer is often yes and it helps.
