Treatment Programs for Recovery in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island
At Edgewood Treatment Centre, we believe the best chance for long-term addiction recovery for our patients is a treatment program that addresses all aspects of their health: body, mind, spirit, and social system.
We do this through the integration of evidence-based mental health treatments, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). We also incorporate wellness approaches, including fitness, yoga, and mindfulness, all designed to augment the many recovery methods we use, including SMART, Dharma, and 12-step-based recovery programs.
This combination means you or your loved one will get the most innovative therapies all in a setting that is warm, comfortable, and safe – providing the opportunity to maintain lifelong addiction recovery.
From medically supervised alcohol and drug detox, including heroin, fentanyl and other opioids, to our facilitated Aftercare Program that includes technological methods such as telehealth, Edgewood Treatment Centre delivers ongoing support from an expert team of qualified, caring, and committed staff including full-time physicians, psychiatrists and a 24/7 nursing team. Everyone who comes into treatment receives a full physical assessment to ensure their treatment and programming is aligned with their needs.
The treatment programs at Edgewood are part of a coordinated system of care that includes the family, the patient, and their referral source. Edgewood is committed to providing transparent communication via weekly emails and phone calls with those closest to the individual in care. This input and level of communication is an invaluable component to continued success in trauma and addiction treatment.
Our goal for our patients is permanent abstinence from mood-altering behaviours or chemicals, and an improved lifestyle. Respect for the dignity of the individual and their family is the cornerstone of our treatment program.
Edgewood is fully accredited with the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).
