About North Shore University Hospital – Manhasset
North Shore University Hospital provides emergency, primary, and behavioral health care for clients of all ages in Manhasset, New York. Their Behavioral Health Department has an inpatient treatment center for adults struggling with mental illness, substance abuse disorder, or a combination of both.
While they’re living on site at the center, clients may have access to services like counseling, addiction education, and peer support groups to help them work through their disorder. They may also be able to detox here if they need to remove drugs or alcohol from their bodies before participating in any other treatments. This unit is best for people who would be a danger to themselves or to others if they continue trying to recover from home. Here, they will receive 24/7 nursing care, medication management, and access to other departments within the hospital.
Once they’ve finished their inpatient treatment program, the clients may work with their doctors and nurses to decide what’s the next best step for them. Sometimes, this means going to an outpatient clinic, or they may be able to continue their treatments from home. They should leave with a detailed aftercare plan that will help them achieve long term recovery.
