Hanton House

They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Everett is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

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

Chelsea has 7 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Yes. They treat people in Spanish. Confirm it for the first appointment specifically, because in Chelsea that can depend on who is rostered that day.

They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Chelsea has 8 other centers to ask.

Within 14 miles there are 8 other centers, across Everett, Boston and East Boston.

It is a screening conversation: what is being used, how much, your health, and what you are covered for. Understating the amount is the most common mistake on that call, and it leads to the wrong level of care being offered. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.

Medication is one tool in a program, and for opioid use disorder it is the one with the strongest evidence behind it. Naltrexone works the other way and blocks the effect, so it needs a period of abstinence before it can be started. Ask whether the medication can start during detox or only after it ends.
