Questions people ask about Lifeworks NW
Is Lifeworks NW inpatient or outpatient?
They are set up for 1 level: inpatient residential. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Portland, 3 offer a bed.
Does Lifeworks NW offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Portland offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
What is there in Portland that costs nothing?
Portland has 7 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
How many options are within driving distance?
There are 8 more within a short drive of Portland, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Does Lifeworks NW treat older adults?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Portland.
Does Lifeworks NW prescribe medication for opioid use?
They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Portland.
Does a relapse mean it failed?
A previous attempt is information rather than a mark against you. What was learned the first time usually shapes a better plan the second. Ask what the aftercare looks like, because its absence is a common gap.
Can I bring my phone?
A short list: id, insurance, medications, clothes, and the phone numbers you would not want to lose. A notebook and a couple of books are allowed almost everywhere and are worth more than most of what people pack. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
