Questions people ask about Kodiak Community Health Center
What levels of care does Kodiak Community Health Center offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Kodiak is set up for.
Does Kodiak Community Health Center offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Kodiak offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Which languages does Kodiak Community Health Center offer treatment in?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Kodiak are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
Are remote sessions an option at Kodiak Community Health Center?
They do video appointments, which matters if Kodiak is a drive for you.
Does Kodiak Community Health Center treat teenagers?
They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Kodiak.
Are there other options nearby?
It is on its own in this part of AK, which makes the waiting list question worth asking early.
What separates a good program from a bad one?
Ask both places the same questions and the differences come out quickly. A program that cannot tell you its staff to client ratio usually has a reason. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.
What is medication assisted treatment?
It is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended, and it is standard care for opioid use. Some programs are abstinence based by design and do not use medication at all, which is a real difference between centers. Ask what happens to the prescription on the day the program ends.
