SERVICES - Behavioral Medicine

Treating an addiction or a psychiatric illness isn't simple, but it can be made less complicated. The first step is seeking comprehensive treatment in a safe, secure environment with a staff recognized for excellence and innovation. At Roger Williams Medical Center, we strive to deliver individualized care designed to meet the needs of each patient.

We also recognize the related medical issues that people with these illnesses often must confront. Our programs are located inside a general medical hospital, which means patients have access to a full range of medical services should the need arise. Knowing their loved ones are being treated in this safe environment gives families invaluable peace of mind.

We offer patients the following leading edge behavioral health programs at Roger Williams:

• A 15-bed alcohol & drug detoxification unit for patients suffering from
  alcohol and drug addiction
  
• A day treatment program for patients with ongoing treatment needs
  
• A 12-bed geriatric psychiatry unit serving the mental health needs of patients over 65
  
• A 12-bed dual diagnosis unit for patients with acute psychiatric illness and addictive disorders
  
• A four-week series of support meetings for families and friends of loved ones with addiction.
