Questions people ask about WestCare Georgia
What programs does WestCare Georgia offer?
They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Carrollton is set up for.
Can you detox at WestCare Georgia?
No. There is no detox listed near Carrollton at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.
Are remote sessions an option at WestCare Georgia?
They do video appointments, which matters if Carrollton is a drive for you.
Who are the programs at WestCare Georgia built for?
One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 9 named here.
Is WestCare Georgia an option for someone under 18?
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 Carrollton.
What is there in Carrollton that costs nothing?
Carrollton has 10 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Do I have to stop my prescriptions?
Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Anything needing a blood test or a monthly injection has to be scheduled around the program, which is easier arranged before admission. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.
What if there is no space?
There is often something available sooner at a different level of care than the one you called about. The gap between deciding and starting is where most people fall away, so a shorter wait has value of its own. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
