Questions people ask about Kaiser Permanente
What programs does Kaiser Permanente offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Portland has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Kaiser Permanente?
They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Portland is the nearest place that does it, 3.8 miles away.
Is Kaiser Permanente an option for a veteran?
Yes, they offer a veterans program, one of 14 named programs at this address.
Is there anything in Portland besides paid treatment?
Portland has 7 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Does Kaiser Permanente treat mental health as well?
They treat mental health alongside the substance use, so both sides are handled in one place. Ask whether the psychiatric side is on site, because in Portland that is the part that varies.
How long does treatment take?
Anything from a week to a year, depending on what is being treated and how. Two centers quoting the same number of days can mean very different hours of treatment inside them. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
Is medication just swapping one drug for another?
For many people the medication is what makes the rest of the treatment possible, rather than a replacement for it. How long someone stays on a medication varies from months to years, and that decision belongs with a prescriber. Ask whether the medication can start during detox or only after it ends.
Can I bring my phone?
Much of what people pack gets held at the door. The paperwork and the medication are what you genuinely need. The usual banned list covers alcohol, anything containing it such as mouthwash, aerosols, sharp items and outside food. Put the medication list together before anything else, and include doses and who prescribed them.
