Smokey Point Behavioral Hospital’s Dual Diagnosis Unit is a 28-bed, adult, inpatient diagnostic and treatment program designed to address the needs of individuals confronted with an addiction to alcohol or drugs, accompanied by an emotional or psychiatric illness.
Our in-depth, comprehensive evaluation process conducted by specially trained staff assesses the potential presence of substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders and obtains extensive details of each, as well as gaining a view of the general picture of your experiences.
An individualized treatment plan is then developed by you and your treatment team to fit your needs. Treatment strategies focus on assisting individuals to effectively develop a lifestyle free of alcohol or drugs, learn ways to manage the symptoms of emotional or psychiatric illness in a healthy, constructive manner, and develop relapse prevention strategies for both conditions.
