Questions people ask about YMCA of Honolulu
Is YMCA of Honolulu residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Honolulu is set up for.
Can you detox at YMCA of Honolulu?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Honolulu, under a mile away.
Is medication assisted treatment available at YMCA of Honolulu?
They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Honolulu has 8 other centers.
Is there anything in Honolulu besides paid treatment?
Alongside this, Honolulu has 23 NA meetings and 161 free AA meetings.
Does YMCA of Honolulu offer appointments by video?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Honolulu often still has to be in person.
Is the first call an assessment?
Somebody works through a short list, and the clinical detail comes later at an assessment. The person answering is usually trained to screen rather than to treat, so a full history is not needed yet. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
Does a relapse mean it failed?
Nobody is turned away for having been through a program before. The useful question after a recurrence is what was missing, and the answer is often medication or aftercare. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
Will I lose my job?
Residential care means time away. Outpatient care usually does not. Schools and colleges have their own leave of absence process, and a medical withdrawal is often reversible. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
