Community Healthlink – Highland Grace House

Highland Grace House was a facility operated by Community Healthlink that offered residential addiction treatment services to adolescent girls in Worcester, Massachusetts. The housing had 12 beds available to individuals between the ages of 13 and 17. The treatment program would last 90 days and was funded by state programs.

The residential facility had various experienced staff members available to provide assistance to clients. These staff members included residential counselors, acute care nurses and case managers. Acute care nurses could help adolescents comfortably get through the detox process and possibly may have provided medication to ease withdrawal symptoms.

Residential counselors were available to help adolescents recognize the causes of their addiction and learn relapse strategies that could assist them with recovery. Cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing are therapeutic approaches that might have been used during treatment sessions.

As clients eventually completed their recovery, they had the chance to try various new sober activities in Worcester. Some of the options that were available for them to consider were walking in Green Hill Park or visiting the EcoTarium.

While the Highland House is now closed, Community Healthlink operates another residential treatment facility for adolescents called Motivated Youth Recovery. This location also has 12 beds and provides recovery services for substance use disorder and co occurring disorders.

Clients will be monitored 24 hours a day and receive an assessment, treatment and aftercare planning. The facility has qualified staff, such as master’s level clinicians and registered nurses, available to help with your loved one’s recovery.
