Bed-Based Treatment - Substance Use
Three-month live-in program for females. Academic programming provided on-site. Comprehensive approach targets important life domains and issues, including mental health, trauma, relationships, physical health and nutrition, and work/academics.
Individuals may be tested upon entry if exhibiting any symptoms.
Completed application package is required for referral. Referrals accepted from all sources (including self). Applications can be submitted online through the website or by calling. Telephone screening interview will be completed at the point of application.
GAIN 3Q Assessment required prior to admission. Preference for it to be completed externally, but not required. Facility can administer if needed.
PLEASE NOTE: For safety reasons, youth under 16 years of age who reside greater than a 2-hour drive from Ottawa cannot usually be considered for admission. This is due to the potential safety risks associated with the premature discharge of young youth who are not willing to wait for caregivers to pick them up and ensure a safe transition home. There are situations, however, where alternative safety and transportation arrangements can be made so that this geographic distance criterion does not become a restriction to admission (e.g., it is agreed by all parties that a close family friend/relative within 2 hour driving range will safely transport the youth in the event of an unplanned discharge, etc.)
