The newest addition to the Wilmington Treatment Center campus greatly enhances the ability of the organization to treat patients, filling a vital need for this North Carolina community. The combination of a specialized treatment unit and outpatient facilities provides a holistic, continuum of care to maximize the potential for effective addiction treatment. Phase 1, a 48-bed new treatment unit built on the existing campus, provides a controlled environment for the intense, initial phase of rehabilitation treatment. The two-story, 31,480 square-foot facility allows for male and female populations to each have their own floor. The building features exam rooms, observation rooms, bedrooms, counseling rooms, a dining area, lounge, nurse station and outdoor recreation area. Much-needed staff amenities are also an integral part of the design, including a large conference room and a fitness room for patients and staff. An abundance of windows bathes the natural material interior finishes in sunlight, creating a calming environment and a sense of well-being.
