Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage Hospital

Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage Hospital is a primarily outpatient facility that’s located in Winfield, Illinois. This suburb in Dekalb County is located roughly 60 miles east of Chicago. The hospital is one of several regional facilities within the Northwestern network designed specifically for behavioral health support. The DuPage hospital focuses on drug and alcohol abuse and features a team of support staff trained in the approved American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) methodologies for treatment. Northwestern Medicine accepts most major insurers and Medicare.

Northwestern Medicine provides both inpatient and outpatient treatment options that focus not only on curbing addiction but also on continued counseling to provide long term support to maintain recovery. Along with detox, some patients may be offered medication assisted treatment (MAT) to control withdrawal symptoms and support their long term recovery goals. Treatment also includes therapy sessions which can be in individual, group or family settings.

Inpatient treatment may be the best way for some people to fully detox and build the foundations needed to stay sober. Inpatient care comes with a team of addiction specialists which includes certified addiction counselors, physicians and social workers. Some people might be referred to Northwestern’s Adult Partial Hospital Day Program for continued care after inpatient discharge.
