Inpatient Dual Diagnosis Treatment
What is Dual Diagnosis?
Dual Diagnosis, also referred to as co-occurring disorders, means that an individual is experiencing both a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder.
According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA):
Approximately 50% of individuals with a mental health disorder will also experience a substance use disorder at some point in their lives.
This underscores the need for specialized, integrated care, as individuals with dual diagnosis are dealing with two separate but interconnected conditions. We are proud to offer inpatient care for those dealing with a Dual Diagnosis.
