CARE Hawaii Inc - Adolescent IOP/OP

They offer outpatient. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Honolulu has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Honolulu is the nearest place that does it, under a mile away.

They take under 18s, alongside adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25, which in Honolulu is worth confirming before you drive over.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Honolulu are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

There are 8 more within a short drive of Honolulu, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

They are the same treatment delivered at different intensities, and the intensity is what you are choosing. Outpatient care is a fraction of the cost and is the level most people are treated at. Ask whether the center offers the middle levels or only a bed and a weekly appointment.

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. A mandated program reports attendance to whoever ordered it, and that is set by the order rather than by the center. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.

Identification, insurance card, medications in their original labeled containers, and a week of ordinary clothes. Medications normally have to arrive in the original labeled container, so a pill organizer can be refused at the door. Ask how much cash, if any, is useful to have with you.
