No. The stricter than HIPAA Pennsylvania drug and alcohol treatment privacy laws requires the person seeking treatment to schedule the appointment. You can provide transportation, but no one at AAR can talk to you about their treatment or even confirm if they are a client until your loved one signs a release authorizing AAR to exchange information with you. Even then, what we are allowed to discuss is very limited. Please feel free to call us if you want to learn more about the treatment options we offer and share that information with the person you hope to help. In addition, one of our staff would be happy to speak with you if you need ideas to help get a loved one into treatment.
