About East Bay Health Center- Barrington – Barrington
East Bay Health Center’s Barrington site is run by East Bay Community Action Program (EBCAP). You can find them in the heart of the beautiful coastal town of Barrington, Rhode Island. They offer stabilization services in their emergency center, as well as outpatient treatment for youths and adults experiencing substance use disorder.
What’s special about East Bay Health Center is that their goal is to help you become self-reliant. They want you to have the ability and self-confidence to advocate for yourself and live a healthy life.
The East Bay Health Center emergency services are available 24/7 throughout the entire year, so you can get help immediately. They can stabilize your condition and provide acute psychiatric hospitalization to those experiencing severe behavioral health conditions.
While your condition is stabilizing, the team works to coordinate any further care and support you through difficulties that arise as you adjust to being in recovery. They can also help you reintegrate into your community
One thing I liked about EBCAP is that they place a lot of value in ensuring you understand what’s going on. Their “every door is the right door” policy means you might start out in a program that doesn’t meet your needs. The staff goes out of their way to connect you to the right people and explain why they’re transferring you to a different program if it’s necessary. They walk you through the process so you aren’t confused or overwhelmed. In their Family Health Care program, they even help you apply for health insurance and make sure you understand the care you’re entitled to.
It’s also cool that they’re centrally located among plenty of local attractions. If nature helps your recovery, you can drop by Osamequin Nature Trails and Bird Sanctuary by the Hundred Acre Cove or go to one of the many parks nearby.
