Aroostook Mental Health Residential Treatment Facility

Levels of care#

Detox

After withdrawal ends, the next step in Maine is ongoing treatment, since detox alone does not treat a substance use disorder. Moving into that care keeps recovery going once this stage is done.

Inpatient / residential

Inpatient care keeps one eye on the road ahead. The final phase of a stay is spent planning the step down to outpatient support.

Aftercare support

Aftercare planning usually begins before discharge, while the treatment experience is still fresh and goals are easy to discuss.

Co-occurring disorders

Naming what is happening matters, and a substance use disorder with a mental health condition at once is called a dual diagnosis.
