Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs provide continuing care for clients in an advanced phase of recovery, including those who have completed detox and intensive inpatient treatment. These clients typically have already engaged in many hours of addiction counseling and recovery education. Drug rehab aftercare supports clients in maintaining their sobriety at home, in the workplace, and in the community. Case managers and care teams advise clients on the resources they may need to promote their sustained sobriety.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

When you receive 24-hour clinical care in New Hampshire, you benefit from several advantages. You receive 24/7 medical care and support. You also detox in a setting that keeps you away from access to addictive substances. Additionally, doctors prescribed medications that reduce or eliminate withdrawal symptoms. Medical staff also provide other treatment to improve your physical and mental health.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Treatment provided at drug rehab in New Hampshire prepares individuals to handle life stressors without using substances. Participants get the tools and support they need to maintain lifelong recovery.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

The hosptial policy about visitors is not clear and very vague. This needs to be updated if they would like a policy to be followed and respected. Staff makes up their own policy the excuse we received was it s the discretion of the nurse/staff. This created a very giant problem and an unprofessional setting. One nurse says is okay for the 13 year old to stay overnight due to her father having surgery then the next night a whole different nurse says no. This is completely unfair and unprofessional. Confusing for the patient as well. They need to choose the child is allowed or not allowed across the whole board. It should not be a pick and choose basis by how the staff feels There is no where in the policy that states a child can not stay over night. It s states the child needs to be accompanied by a parent at all times that is not the patient. Please correct your policy on visitors . We will never be going back to this hospital due to the lack of communication between staff and getting multiple different yes and no. If the policy does not state no child after a certain time they we should not be told she has to leave and can t stay

-Fast turnaround ER. Friendly staff from security, receptionist to ER doctor. Nice to see Health care providers enjoy and smile while at work.-Triaged me in and out within 60 minutes on a Thursday afternoon.-Went in with calf muscle tear trying to get MRI.-ER doctor did similar diagnosis tests available online to rule out bone or tendon damage.-Turns out their MRI is for emergency head trauma only.-For non-head injuries, policy is to do xray then refer to orthopedic doctor.-If your PCP can refer you directly to orthopedic, skip the ER.

This is the worst hospital I have visited in NH. I've been waiting for around 2 hours with my 14-month-old son and it's time that they haven't called him yet to check on him... and around 15 people have left without being evaluated. Disappointing!

X-ray people stole thousands in jewelry. There's nothing you can do. You have to prove you had it on. They are thieves. We got robbed, from the hospital staff.

My 22 year old daughter was in a very severe accident in June of 2023. It was late at night and she has a very large family. I was very impressed with the way they put up with all of us. She had 2 major surgeries right away and an 8 day stay in ICU. After a 2 month stay and a few more surgeries it was on to in patient physical therapy. I m happy to say they saved my daughters life. The doctors,nurses and all the staff were very understanding with the amount of visitors. I would never want to ever go through that experience again but I m glad we went there.

Hello Paul. Thank you for sharing your family's experience. We are proud to have provided your daughter with the patient-centered care she needed and thrilled to hear that she is recovering well. We hope you all have a safe and healthy summer.

The womens bathroom by the emergency room is absolutely disgusting. No toilet paper, trash wasn't emptied, toilet paper all over the floor and stuffed behind the stall. Looks like it's been weeks since it was cleaned. Do better.
