Most addiction treatment centers only serve adults.

Shady Grove's behavioral health programs cover nearly the entire lifespan in one system which includes inpatient for children ages eight to 12 and a therapeutic environment for teens 13 to 17 as well as seniors and adults.

Patients have 24 hour access to depression, anxiety, and trauma care. Children as young as 5 can be seen in outpatient services and one reviewer noted appreciation that they serve patients at any stage of life here.

The system also houses the Ridge School of Montgomery County.

This is an educational and therapeutic program that is unusual alongside standard clinical offerings and the system offers convenience for families in Rockville that manage behavioral health needs across multiple generations.

Everyone can receive age appropriate care within the same accredited system.

Detox With Mental Health Stabilization

Shady Grove is a dedicated psychiatric center that is capable of providing a high level of psychiatric care during detox. Most detox facilities can't offer this.

Patients in detox who are managing serious mental health symptoms can be stabilized medically and psychiatrically because the center sits within a full medical center campus with on-site emergency services.

A standalone detox program may need to transfer that patient elsewhere mid-episode. At Shady Grove the acute inpatient psychiatric unit is already in-house and under Joint Commission accreditation.

Shady Grove serves Montgomery County and the broader region and accepts many major insurers including Medicaid and Medicare and offers financial assistance options.
