Questions people ask about Ku Aloha Ola Mau - Hilo Office
Is Ku Aloha Ola Mau - Hilo Office residential or day treatment?
They offer outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Hilo has 2 other centers within 14 miles.

Does Ku Aloha Ola Mau - Hilo Office prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 2 medications: methadone and buprenorphine. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Hilo.
Does Ku Aloha Ola Mau - Hilo Office have beds?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Hilo has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Is there a pregnancy program at Ku Aloha Ola Mau - Hilo Office?
Yes. They offer a program for pregnant and postpartum clients, which is one of 3 named programs here.
How long is the wait?
A bed is not something anyone can hold for you on a maybe, which is most of why lists exist. Private programs typically have shorter waits and higher prices, and both facts are part of the same picture. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
Can I work during treatment?
Outpatient programs run early and late for exactly this reason, so many people are treated without taking leave. A documented medical leave is a stronger position than an unexplained absence, which is the comparison that matters. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
