Begin with an individualized safety conversation
A useful first step is to explain what is happening now, rather than trying to determine the right level of care alone. Tell the admissions team about current hydrocodone concerns, changes you have noticed, and the kind of support you are seeking. It is also helpful to discuss mental health concerns, medications, existing providers, family involvement, and practical scheduling needs. River City Recovery can explain its outpatient services and how the assessment process works.
