Newport Academy - Teen Treatment

They provide inpatient residential. The nearest alternative is in Sequim, 11 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Port Townsend has 2 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

Within 14 miles there are 2 other centers, across Sequim.

Port Townsend has 18 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and Port Townsend has 2 other centers to compare.

The medication review is part of intake, and it is one of the reasons intake asks so many health questions. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Write the list with doses and prescriber names before the first call.

Both can be treated at once, and programs that do are described as integrated or co-occurring. An integrated program treats both in one place. A sequential one treats the substance use first, which leaves a gap. Ask whether both are treated in the same place or one after the other.
