Palmetto Addiction Recovery Center

How many hours a week is an IOP?

At Palmetto, the IOP program meets three days a week, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. This schedule allows most clients to maintain a normal work or school schedule while attending treatment.

Do you work with my insurance?

We work with most forms of insurance to make IOP treatment as accessible and affordable as possible. We’d be happy to discuss payment options with you.

Substance use in Metairie and New Orleans

The opioid crisis in the US has only gotten worse in recent years and Louisiana has been no exception. In 2017, more than 70,000 Americans died of a drug overdose and nearly 48,000 of those deaths were opioid-related. The rate of overdose deaths in Louisiana was higher than the national average in 2017. In that year, 21.7 of every 100,000 Americans died of an overdose while 24.5 of every 100,000 people in Louisiana died of an overdose. That was more than a 12 percent increase over the previous year. As the most populated area in Louisiana, the New Orleans-Metairie area has been hardest hit by the opioid crisis. In 2017, more than 1100 people in Louisiana died from overdoses. Of those 1100 deaths, 153 were in Orleans Parish and 176 were in Jefferson Parish. If you’re struggling with substance use and you live in the New Orleans-Metairie area, Palmetto’s New Orleans-Metairie IOP can help you recover from addiction while still giving you the freedom to go to work, school, or take care of your family. We offer no-cost assessments. To make an appointment or learn more about the program, call us at 866-848-3001 or use the contact form below to request more information.
