The Ridge is an inpatient residential treatment center designed to treat each person holistically through a wide variety of clinical programming and experiences. We treat the whole person, not just the addiction.

With an industry-leading 4:1 clinical staff to patient ratio, you can be assured that you or your loved one, and your family will receive the education, therapy, and treatment needed to start the next chapter of your new life.

Using a pre-admission assessment we determine if a patient is medically appropriate for our program. If we determine that a patient can be treated by our services, we verify insurance and agree on financial terms. If our doctors request additional medical information, we will obtain that prior to admission. Our intake manager then schedules the admission date and time.
