Medical Detox in Wasilla
True North’s Day One Center offers inpatient detox at Level 4.0, the medically managed level, and outpatient ambulatory detox, meaning withdrawal care is provided without an overnight stay.
If you are saying for an inpatient style treatment, then you stay on site, so withdrawal symptoms are watched there rather than only during visits.
If you’re already on medication assisted treatment, you can still take part in the program.
Over ninety percent of the staff are in active recovery, with over twenty percent of them program graduates.
Residential care in Wasilla houses up to 23 adults. Once withdrawal care ends, treatment can continue there rather than stopping at detox.
Plan on a minimum of 20 hours a week for day treatment. Recovery housing in Wasilla and Fairbanks is substance-free.
