Akeela Inc - Akeela House

They are set up for 3 levels: inpatient residential, inpatient hospital and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Anchorage, 2 offer a bed.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Anchorage offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult women, court referrals, past trauma and pregnant/postpartum.

Anchorage has 27 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

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 Anchorage has 8 other centers.

They treat pregnant and postpartum clients. Ask whether prenatal care is on site or coordinated with somewhere else in Anchorage.

A program treats the fact that you are there as confidential by default, including from whoever is paying. Where an employer is funding treatment, it is normally told that you attended and not what was discussed. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.

Think documents and medication first, comforts second. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Put the medication list together before anything else, and include doses and who prescribed them.
