About Behavioral Health Services at Dignity Health – Community Hospital of San Bernardino
Behavioral Health Services at Dignity Health Community Hospital of San Bernardino is a hospital-based substance use and behavioral health treatment program in San Bernardino, California, serving adults with mental health and co-occurring addiction needs.
Located on Medical Center Drive, the program offers inpatient services and an Intensive Outpatient Program within the trusted Dignity Health network.
Care, I've found, is evidence based, trauma informed and individualized to support each person's recovery and emotional well-being.
Behavioral Health Programs and Levels of Care
Treatment typically begins with a psychiatric evaluation and individualized treatment planning to identify the right level of care.
Clients can access inpatient services focused on medication stabilization and life skills, as well as outpatient options including an Intensive Outpatient Program.
Programs incorporate dual-diagnosis care for those facing both addiction and mental health conditions.
Clients, I've found, can expect cognitive behavioral therapy, group and one-on-one counseling, support groups, medication assisted treatment, mindfulness and spiritual care delivered in a warm, caring environment.

Addiction Treatment Programs
Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.
An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.
When a person is struggling with addiction, their actions and emotions may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy in California helps individuals understand better why they feel and act certain ways and how those emotions and actions can lead to substance abuse.
Seniors face unique challenges that may contribute to substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders. Elderly rehab in California is designed to address these challenges to provide relevant and safe treatment for seniors.
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.
Levels of Care
When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.
When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.
