Description

The Ottmar Residential Program serves Rhode Island women who need residential treatment for substance use disorder, including those with co-occurring mental health issues.  Length of stay is determined by individual assessment and progress toward clinical goals, but averages about 28 days.  Most insurances are accepted, including commercial and Medicaid Expansion insurances.  Funds may be available for patients who have no insurance coverage or insurance that is not accepted by the program.

The Ottmar Residential Program for Women is accredited by CARF, a nationally recognized standard of excellence.
