Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

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

No detox here. A center can still take someone after a detox elsewhere, which is the common order of events, and the nearest one is 1.8 miles away in Bellevue.

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Bellevue differ on it.

Alongside this, Bellevue has 48 NA meetings and 265 free AA meetings.

They treat both. A diagnosis left untreated while the substance use is treated is the usual reason a first attempt does not hold, and Kirkland is the nearest place to try instead if this one does not fit.

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Bellevue does.

One program can take somebody today while another in the same town is a month out. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Ask what can be started while you wait.

Pack for about a week, keep the documents where you can hand them over at the door, and expect the bag to be searched. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Ask what the first twenty four hours look like, because that is what you are packing for.
