Integrated Treatment for Complex Needs

The hospital delivers care for adults living with both substance use and mental health challenges. For clients who may be navigating trauma, relapse, and unstable circumstances, the hospital provides a secure setting where treatment and safety come first. Inpatient units and outpatient programs are designed to stabilize crises, manage co-occurring disorders, and prepare clients for long-term recovery. Treatment is also available for compulsive gambling.

Trauma-Informed, Client-Focused Care

Many clients enter treatment carrying the weight of trauma. The hospital offers specialized services for those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma histories, or eating disorders. Programs combine therapy, group sessions, and activity-based therapies with psychiatric care. The goal is to create a healing environment that respects dignity while addressing both substance use and mental health conditions together.

Inpatient and Outpatient Options

When symptoms are acute or safety is at risk, the hospital’s inpatient units provide 24/7 supervision and structured treatment. Once stabilized, clients may continue care through outpatient therapy and medication management, including telehealth visits. This step-down approach supports continued progress while balancing treatment with daily life responsibilities.

Medication and Recovery Supports

While the hospital does not dispense medications for addiction treatment (MAT), it coordinates care for clients already on medications for opioid use disorder. Psychiatric medications are available as part of integrated treatment. Tobacco cessation services including nicotine replacement and counseling are also offered. Clients benefit from relapse-prevention counseling, psychoeducation, and life skills development.

Services for Long-Term Stability

Recovery often requires support beyond therapy sessions. The hospital helps clients address barriers that can disrupt healing by offering housing services, vocational rehabilitation, legal advocacy, and case management. Nutrition counseling, chronic disease management, and exercise education also promote overall health. These supports connect directly to everyday stability, reducing risks that can trigger relapse.
