What types of accommodations are available?
All rooms are semi-private with a private bathroom and are designed to be comfortable and relaxing to allow you a place to reflect and better your recovery.
What ages do you accept for treatment?
Treatment is available to males and females ages 18 and older.
Do you only treat alcohol and substance abuse?
No, we have a mental health unit for patients who suffer with mental illness. Also, we are able to treat those who require “dual diagnosis” care — combining cognitive behavioral therapy with the 12-step philosophy for sobriety.
What happens when treatment ends?
We believe in a full continuum of care that includes "aftercare." We provide aftercare programs in the local area or we can help link patients to community support systems in the area they will be returning. This helps increase the likelihood for enduring high-quality behavioral health long after discharge from our programs.
