About Saint Marys Regional Medical Center

Saint Mary's Regional Medical Center operates a hospital-based Center for Recovery in Lewiston, Maine. The program emphasizes accessible care for adults with substance use disorders, including those with co-occurring mental health needs. The Center for Recovery uses a Rapid Access model designed to reduce barriers, connecting people to treatment faster through phone screening and same-day evaluation when appropriate.

Rapid Access to Substance Use Treatment

I noticed that The Center for Recovery's Rapid Access Center provides a streamlined pathway to care that bypasses the emergency department. After a phone screening, eligible individuals can receive same-day evaluation and admission to the inpatient Recovery Unit, reducing wait times and simplifying entry into treatment.

Inpatient services include medical and behavioral stabilization, relapse prevention education and coping skills development. Sessions focus on whole-person care, addressing both substance use and underlying behavioral health concerns with a clear emphasis on preparing patients for sustained recovery beyond discharge.

Co-Occurring Disorder Support and Continuity of Care

Saint Mary's specializes in dual-diagnosis treatment. I appreciate that the hospital-based setting allows for integrated behavioral health support with transition planning built into every treatment episode to connect patients with ongoing outpatient services at Saint Mary's or through community partners.

The center accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and most major commercial insurance plans, with financial assistance available for qualifying patients.
