About ECMC Hospital
In Buffalo, ECMC Hospital is an addiction treatment center in Buffalo, New York.
They have inpatient and outpatient care for substance use, and the outpatient services are for people with problems related to alcohol or other substance use.
ECMC uses motivational interviewing, counseling on a person's reasons to change, and cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts tied to substance use.
Are ER counselors there all night?
Yes, counselors for substance use are available 24 hours a day in ECMC's Emergency Department, and they do substance use disorder evaluations so you don't have to put it off until the next day.
