What Is a Bath Salts Helpline?
A bath salts helpline is a free hotline that’s designated for people who are struggling with the abuse or addiction of this substance. It can also be used for people who are seeking help for someone else. The ultimate goal of these hotlines is to provide information about treatment options for bath salt abuse or addiction, including those available at The Recovery Village.
When Should I Call a Bath Salts Hotline?
The Recovery Village’s 24-hour bath salts hotline is always open. That means you can call anytime, day or night if you need to talk to someone about starting a treatment plan. However, if you need immediate treatment for a medical emergency related to bath salts, call 911 first. The use of bath salts has been known to cause a number of side effects that can pose various and potentially fatal health and safety risks to the user and others.
If I Call, What Questions Will They Ask?
Although no two substance abuse hotline representatives are exactly alike, all of them need to ask a series of questions during the call. This allows callers to get the help they need for themselves or for their loved ones. The following are just a few of the questions you can expect to be asked when calling The Recovery Village’s hotline:
- What is the primary motivation for treatment?
- Does the user currently have a support system for his or her addiction?
- Has the user been diagnosed with PTSD?
- Is the user currently ready to enroll in a treatment program?
- Has the user experienced any suicidal thoughts or tendencies?
When I Call, Is the Conversation Confidential?
When you call The Recovery Village’s helpline, we guarantee your privacy under the HIPAA Privacy Rule. Our intake coordinators want only one thing for every caller, and that’s to help them get well and live a drug-free life. We want you to have peace of mind when you call us.
Can I Start the Treatment Process When Calling This Hotline?
Absolutely! We understand how difficult it can be to even make this call in the first place, so we certainly don’t want you to have to hang up and call someone else to begin treatment. One of the great things about The Recovery VIllage is that you can enroll in a treatment program at any of our centers throughout the country during your very first phone call.
