Chemical dependency is often far more than a drug or alcohol habit that's out of control--it can be a serious illness with debilitating symptoms. The Stuyvesant Square program is a leader in providing quality, cost-effective services to help the chemically dependent person regain stability. Through our hospital-based program, patients receive the highest standard of care based on each patient’s individual needs.

The Stuyvesant Square treatment approach to chemical dependency goes beyond breaking the cycle of substance abuse and addiction. It provides patients with the knowledge, skills and support necessary to successfully lead chemical-free lives. The services are carefully designed to reach each person at his or her level of addiction. Professional guidance is provided through the distinct phases of recovery, because the program believes that true recovery must address the mental, physical, emotional and social problems that contribute to and result from chemical dependency.

The treatment services at Stuyvesant Square include: outpatient and inpatient detoxification, intensive day services, intensive outpatient services, gender-specific treatment, family programs and inpatient rehabilitation.
