Wife's first week in treatment
Drove my wife to residential treatment on Friday and walked out of there in tears, not knowing a thing about her schedule. Do they get free time? Can we visit? I keep imagining the worst. If you've had a loved one in inpatient care, how did the days and discharge work? I'd also appreciate any New York center you'd suggest for the future.

That first drive home alone can be absolutely heartbreaking. When my friend's husband entered residential care, she felt just as lost until she learned his routine included therapy, group sessions, meals and some scheduled free time. Visits and phone calls depended on the facility's rules, so she checked with staff rather than guessing. They also involved her in discharge planning, including follow-up support. If you're exploring New York options, I came across gambling rehab near me that accepts insurance and would ask them about their program and family involvement. Hope you both get some reassurance soon.
