Seeking medical attention should never be grounds for calling the law, except, of course, that person is fugitive from the law, then, will the healthcare provider be obligated to call the law. I might be wrong, but, I believe that that's what the law dictates. Merely seeking medical attention for a mental health issue shouldn't warrant calling the law. But, if someone is seeking attention for, let's say, a gunshot wound, the healthcare provider might want to involve the law, since there's a high chance law was broken. Now, I'm not a lawyer, but, I've heard and seen these matters played out long enough in the media to know what to expect. Go detox. No problems whatsoever.
No. They will get you all the help you need. Now if you go in there causing problems or with a weapon, drugs etc yes. But to detox NO. GO IN AND GET THE HELP YOU NEED. You will feel better about yourself, I promise. God Bless
Check your state laws, there are certain circumstances that have to be reported...period.
