Questions people ask about Western Arkansas Counseling and - Guidance Ctr Inc

Is Western Arkansas Counseling and - Guidance Ctr Inc inpatient or outpatient?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Fort Smith is set up for.

Can you detox at Western Arkansas Counseling and - Guidance Ctr Inc?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Fort Smith, a few streets away.

Does Western Arkansas Counseling and - Guidance Ctr Inc have beds?

Is there a program at Western Arkansas Counseling and - Guidance Ctr Inc for people like me?

They offer a program for veterans, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Fort Smith has 8 other centers to ask.

Can I do this by video instead?

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Fort Smith.

Will a program make me come off my medication?

The list comes with you and gets reviewed. Nothing on it should change on a policy rather than a prescription. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Call (844) 822-5800 if a specific prescription is the thing making this complicated.

Is the first call an assessment?

The first conversation is mostly questions about what is being used, how much, and for how long. Understating the amount is the common mistake, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.

Will I lose my job?

Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. Colleges handle this through a medical leave process, which normally leaves a better record than an incomplete semester. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
