The medically supervised detox program at SummitRidge Hospital is an adult only program. The entire process is overseen by medical staff to ensure safety and as much comfort as possible.
The inpatient program at SummitRidge Hospital is for adolescents ages 11 – 17 years of age.

The partial hospitalization program at SummitRidge Hospital is for adults 18 years of age or older, who have been diagnosed with a psychiatric condition, or who have been diagnosed with dual diagnosis. An evaluation is provided prior to beginning treatment to identify the appropriate level of care. In addition to doctor’s visits, therapy is provided. Psychoeducational classes on various topics, including specialized skills such as learning how to gain confidence when facing issues, are required to help create a healthy foundation prior to graduating from the program. A separate adolescent track is provided for those aged 11 -17.
The intensive outpatient program at SummitRidge Hospital is for those who do not need a high level of structure, but who still need to have regular intervals of therapy and group connection.
Many intensive outpatient programs meet three times a week. This allows for greater autonomy and the opportunity to practice the skills learned in a workplace environment, school, or home life. A separate intensive outpatient track is provided for adolescents.
