Full-Service Case Management
FMLA Assistance, Legal Coordination, and Wraparound Support at Journey Hillside Tarzana
Entering addiction treatment means confronting more than just substance use—it means navigating employment concerns, legal obligations, family responsibilities, and countless logistical details that can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to focus on recovery. At Journey Hillside Tarzana, our dedicated case management team ensures that your life outside of treatment remains stable and protected while you concentrate on healing.

With our exclusive six-bed facility, each client receives deeply personalized attention from case managers who understand the unique pressures you face.
We don’t just coordinate care—we become your advocate, your problem-solver, and your partner in maintaining the life you’ve built while you focus on building the sober future you deserve.
FULL-SPECTRUM SUPPORT FOR YOUR LIFE BEYOND TREATMENT
Private, supportive recovery experience in Los Angeles.
Your recovery journey extends far beyond the therapeutic work you do in our facility. The external pressures of employment, legal matters, family obligations, and daily responsibilities can create overwhelming stress that undermines treatment outcomes. Our case management services address these real-world concerns with the same level of excellence and attention we bring to clinical care. We’ve structured our support around four core areas that represent the most critical needs of clients seeking treatment while maintaining complex lives.
FMLA and Employment Protection
Your career is an essential part of your identity and financial stability. Protecting your job during treatment is often the primary concern that keeps professionals from seeking the help they need. Our case management team specializes in navigating the Family Medical Leave Act process, ensuring your employment remains secure throughout your recovery journey.
We handle the complex documentation required for FMLA approval, coordinate directly with your employer’s human resources department, and ensure all medical certifications meet federal requirements. Our case managers understand that discretion matters—we facilitate this process with the professionalism and confidentiality that busy professionals require. Whether you need the full 12-week leave period or are planning a phased return to work, we develop a strategy that protects both your position and your privacy.
JOURNEY HILLSIDE: CASE MANAGEMENT IN LOS ANGELES
Work-Related Coordination and Career Continuity
Beyond FMLA paperwork, our case management services address the practical realities of maintaining your professional standing during treatment. We understand that your career didn’t pause when you entered our doors—deadlines persist, responsibilities accumulate, and colleagues have questions.
Our team can coordinate communication strategies with your workplace, help manage professional obligations that simply cannot wait, and facilitate limited work engagement when clinically appropriate and in alignment with your treatment goals. For licensed professionals subject to board oversight, we maintain close contact with regulatory agencies and professional monitoring programs to ensure compliance with all requirements. Our goal is to help you return to your career stronger and more capable than before, not to create gaps that damage your professional trajectory.
Legal Issue Navigation and Coordination
Legal concerns often accompany substance use disorders, and addressing these issues proactively is critical to your long-term stability. Our case management team works directly with your legal counsel to ensure that treatment participation is properly documented, court requirements are met, and communication flows smoothly between your clinical team and legal representatives.
Whether you’re facing DUI proceedings, custody matters, professional licensing issues, or other legal obligations, our case managers serve as the vital connection point that keeps all parties informed and aligned. We understand the documentation requirements of various court systems and can provide the verification and progress reports that legal proceedings demand. Studies show that case management supports improved functioning across multiple life domains, including legal status. This coordination reduces your stress and demonstrates your commitment to meaningful change.
Wraparound Support for Comprehensive Life Management
Addiction affects every dimension of your life, and sustainable recovery requires addressing all of them simultaneously. Our wraparound case management approach ensures nothing falls through the cracks while you’re in treatment.
This comprehensive support includes coordinating childcare arrangements, managing household responsibilities, addressing financial obligations, facilitating family communication, and connecting you with community resources that support long-term sobriety. We help arrange pet care, coordinate with property managers or mortgage companies, facilitate mail management, and handle the countless details that accumulate when you step away from daily life to focus on treatment.
For professionals with demanding schedules and complex obligations, this level of support is transformative. Instead of worrying about what’s happening outside our facility, you can direct your full attention to the therapeutic work that will change your life.
How Case Management Enhances Your Treatment Experience
Research consistently demonstrates that case management in addiction treatment improves treatment outcomes by addressing the practical barriers that otherwise undermine recovery efforts. When basic needs are met and external stressors are managed, clients achieve better treatment adherence and outcomes, reduced substance use, improved overall functioning, and stronger long-term sobriety.
At Journey Hillside Tarzana, case management is seamlessly integrated into your individualized treatment plan. Your case manager works in close collaboration with your therapist, medical team, and recovery support network to ensure a coordinated approach that addresses both clinical needs and real-world circumstances. This integration is what makes our six-bed facility so powerful—with such limited admissions, every member of your care team knows your situation intimately and can respond immediately when issues arise.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
How does case management protect my job during treatment?
Case management teams help coordinate Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) documentation, which provides job-protected leave for qualifying medical conditions, including substance use treatment. At Journey Hillside Tarzana, our case managers handle the complex paperwork, communicate with HR departments when appropriate, and ensure all medical certifications meet federal requirements. This professional coordination allows you to enter treatment with confidence that your employment is protected under federal law. For specific questions about your employment situation, our admissions team at (877) 414-1024 can discuss how case management applies to your unique circumstances.
Will my employer know the details of my treatment?
Confidentiality is paramount in addiction treatment. Federal regulations protect your privacy, and employers are not entitled to detailed information about your diagnosis or specific treatment activities.
Case managers facilitate FMLA and employment coordination while maintaining strict confidentiality standards. The focus remains on providing necessary documentation for medical leave—not disclosing treatment details. Our six-bed facility provides additional privacy and discretion that professionals require. Contact our admissions team to learn more about how we protect your confidentiality throughout the case management process.
What does "wraparound support" actually mean?
Wraparound support means addressing all the practical life concerns that could otherwise interfere with your recovery. This comprehensive approach can include coordinating childcare arrangements, managing household responsibilities, facilitating family communication, connecting you with community resources, and handling the countless details that accumulate when you step away from daily routines.
The goal is to remove external stressors so you can focus completely on treatment. Each case management plan is tailored to your specific situation and needs.
Can case managers help with pending legal matters?
Case managers frequently coordinate with legal counsel to ensure treatment participation is properly documented for court requirements. This may include providing verification of treatment enrollment, progress updates, and compliance documentation that legal proceedings often require.
While case managers don’t provide legal advice, they serve as a vital communication bridge between your clinical team and legal representatives. Whether you’re dealing with DUI proceedings, custody matters, or professional licensing concerns, case management ensures all parties remain informed.
How soon should I start the FMLA process before entering treatment?
The FMLA process ideally begins as soon as you’ve decided to seek treatment, though requirements vary by employer and situation. Some companies require 30 days’ notice when leave is foreseeable, while others accommodate shorter timeframes for urgent medical needs. Starting the conversation early—even during the admissions process—allows case managers to help you navigate timelines and documentation requirements smoothly.
At Journey Hillside Tarzana, our admissions team can guide you through optimal timing for your specific employment situation.
Is case management included in treatment, or does it cost extra?
Case management services and their coverage vary by facility and insurance plan. Many comprehensive treatment programs include case management as an integral part of care, recognizing that addressing external stressors directly impacts recovery outcomes. Insurance coverage for case management depends on your specific plan and benefits. During the admissions process, our team can verify your insurance benefits and clarify exactly what case management services are available to you. Contact us at (877) 414-1024 or use our online insurance verification to learn about coverage for comprehensive case management services.
