These services are united by the philosophy that people with psychiatric disabilities can and do recover, and can become active and contributing members of their communities. We provide a wide range of programming - outpatient, crisis support, educational and residential - and we serve persons with multiple disabilities, including substance abuse and developmental delays, in addition to their mental illness. While some of the people we serve may need only short-term services for a particular issue, most receive multiple types of support in order to address all of their needs. Addiction Services: Bay Cove specializes in providing a continuum of drug and alcohol addiction services, including substance abuse prevention, detoxification, short-term residential programming, individual and group counseling, and out-patient treatment for opiate addiction. We believe that addiction is a medical condition and that with effective, long-term treatment tailored to individual needs, people with drug addiction can recover and lead productive lives. The ultimate goal of drug addiction treatment is to enable an individual to achieve lasting abstinence, but the immediate goals are to reduce drug abuse, improve the patient's ability to function, and minimize the medical and social complications of drug abuse and addiction.
