| Hazelden's staff is composed of experienced professionals with licenses in substance abuse counseling or the professional discipline they represent, such as MDs, psychologists, etc. Our programs are also licensed by the states in which they are located. Additionally, all programs in Minnesota, Oregon, Chicago and New York are accredited by The Joint Commission. Our Hazelden Springbrook program in Oregon is also accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).
Every Hazelden location has at minimum a consulting physician and generally a physician on site during regular admission hours. Complete physical examinations are conducted during the first few days of admission when residential patients spend 24-48 hours in the medical services unit. These units are staffed around the clock by experienced addiction nurses 24/7. For urgent and emergency medical and psychiatric care needs, we refer residential patients to local resources such as acute care hospitals, specialty physicians and psychiatrists |
