Hybrid Addiction Program
Hybrid Addiction Program, a Hybrid Approach to Addiction Treatment
This cost-effective treatment program from EHN Canada focuses on providing you with the intensive support you need, without having to commit to longer-term inpatient care. Our hybrid approach starts with a two-week stay at most of our residential facilities across the country, including our EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia facility in Lawrencetown, NS, with the option of a medically supervised detox if required. It is followed by EHN Online’s Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program, a flexible and virtual approach that provides the same evidence-based treatment provided across the EHN Canada network.
A Flexible Approach to Treatment that Works
Virtual Intensive Outpatient Programs are a unique new option for those struggling with mental health disorders or addiction. They are ideal for those who do not need or simply cannot commit to inpatient treatment due to family or work obligations. However, for some individuals additional support is required, which is why we now offer a hybrid approach that includes two weeks of stabilization in our EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia facility.

How the Program Works

It may be an effective option if you cannot step away from family or work obligations for a long period of time. Our Hybrid Addiction Program includes:
Two weeks of stabilization at an inpatient facility, which includes full inpatient programming with intensive individual and group treatment, 24/7 nursing care, and medical management including psychiatric consultation.
