ARU Outpatient Program
ARU is an OASAS licensed medically supervised intensive outpatient substance abuse program for adults ages 18 and up. The outpatient center is a warm, friendly and compassionate environment that genuinely cares about clients as they work on their recovery needs. We help people address and overcome their substance abuse while living at home and remaining active in their community and workplace. Every patient receives a comprehensive evaluation, a patient-centered individualized treatment plan, and a program of therapies unique to their treatment needs.
The outpatient program has a full complement of nursing, medical, psychological and psychiatric staff available five days per week. We believe our interdisciplinary approach allows us to empower our clients in their recovery process to resolve current issues, and construct a new lifestyle by building on their strengths. The outpatient center has flexible daytime and evening hours.
We provide services through individual and group counseling, the group curriculums are evidenced based. We have memorandums of understanding with community based organizations to provide the following services to our residents:
