Questions people ask about Powell House
Is Powell House residential or day treatment?
They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Wasilla is set up for.
Does Powell House offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Wasilla offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is Powell House an option for a veteran?
Yes, they offer a veterans program, one of 11 named programs at this address.
Are there free support meetings in Wasilla?
Wasilla has 16 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.
Is there an age limit at Powell House?
Their programs are for young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. The group you sit in is usually built around the age band, which in Wasilla can mean one group rather than several.
Does Powell House prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe buprenorphine. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Wasilla offers both.
What if there is depression or anxiety as well?
A mental health condition alongside substance use is the common case rather than the complicated one. Which came first is usually impossible to untangle and rarely changes what should happen next. Ask who to speak to if the mental health side gets worse mid program.
Can I get in today?
It varies from same day to a month, and the only way to know is to ask on the day you are ready. The longest lists sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Ask what the fastest route into treatment is this week, and take that answer seriously.
