How long will I be there?
Inpatient treatment varies depending on each individual case. Many factors are considered to include the clinical assessment, insurance provider requirements, and job responsibilities. The maximum length of stay at Mount Regis Center is 6 weeks.
Is Mount Regis Center a locked facility?
No. Mount Regis Center admits those that volunteer for treatment. Our doors are not locked.
How will I get there?
We recommend that you have a family member or friend drive you here. In some cases, Mount Regis Center may be able to provide transportation. Contact us directly for your personal travel requirements.
What is a typical day like in treatment?
Your day will be full here. Morning hours include wake-up, nursing services, breakfast, and your first group session begins at 9:00 a.m. Group sessions are held throughout the day with breaks in between. Lunch is served at noon and dinner at 5:00 p.m. each day. Our food is home-made! At least once per week, you will meet with your assigned counselor on a one-on-one basis to address all of your particular needs. Your counselor will give you reading and writing assignments to complete. You will attend community-based 12-step meetings with your peers every day of the week. Since wellness/fitness is a strong component of our program, we will take you to the gym for a group exercise class three times per week. We also have a fun outing planned each Sunday afternoon. There are late evening and weekend hours whereby television time is permitted.
