Questions people ask about Sanctuary House LLC
Is Sanctuary House LLC inpatient or outpatient?
They are set up for 1 level: inpatient residential. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Wilkes Barre, 1 offers a bed.
Can you detox at Sanctuary House LLC?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Wilkes Barre, 2.0 miles away.
Does Sanctuary House LLC 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 Wilkes Barre.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Sanctuary House LLC?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Wilkes Barre are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
What special programs does Sanctuary House LLC offer?
One of their programs is built for adult men, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is the only one named here.
What if there is depression or anxiety as well?
It means a mental health condition alongside substance use, which describes most people in treatment. A diagnosis made while someone is still using can be wrong, so assessment often waits until after detox. Ask what happens if the psychiatric side turns out to need more than the program planned for.
What does the first conversation cover?
Expect questions rather than a sales pitch, and expect them to be direct. Medical history matters here: seizures, pregnancy, heart problems and current prescriptions all change the plan. Have your insurance card and a list of medications next to you.
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Most plans cover addiction treatment to some degree, because federal parity rules put it alongside other medical care. A plan can approve the detox and then decline the residential stay that was meant to follow it. Ask which level of care the plan has already approved, and for how many days.
