Residential Treatment Services

Residential treatment is for individuals who require the structure of a 24-hour setting, but not the intensity and security of medical, psychiatric and nursing services offered in an inpatient program. Clients in the residential program may be admitted from the community or following a brief inpatient stay. Residential clients participate in a structured program of five groups per day and a self-help meeting. Group focus is on stabilization, psychoeducation and relapse prevention.

Partial Hospital Treatment

Partial hospital treatment is available for individuals who need intensive treatment but do not require residential care and are able to commute to the program. Participants attend structured group therapy for extended blocks of days (8:30 am to 2 pm), spending nights at home or elsewhere. The program operates seven days a week.
