Inpatient
The Georgianwood Inpatient Program is a 12-week residential treatment program and provides care to patients experiencing a Concurrent Disorder (diagnosed with both a Mental Health Disorder and Substance Use Disorder at the same time). It is one of the only specialty-integrated residential Concurrent Disorders Programs in our region and is held in an inpatient unit that provides group-based skill development.
Please note that while individual therapy is not offered on the Georgianwood Program, individuals attending treatment will collaborate closely with a Primary Nurse and the care team to address goals and concerns.
Referrals from physicians, preferably psychiatrists, are accepted. Referrals are received by the Central Intake Office and reviewed by a team of clinicians. Contact the Central Intake Office or see website for referral forms.
Eligibility:
- Axis 1 diagnosis in addition to substance use disorder
- telephone interview to be completed with each referral
- transportation and accommodations for weekend passes
- abstinent 72 hours prior to admission
Individuals prescribed Methadone or Suboxone must have 3 carries.
