Our philosophy is that substance abuse is like any other disease; therefore, we have an obligation to help the patient manage it. The program sets modest expectations for behavior and is respectful of street culture. Substance use cannot be a barrier to persons accessing supportive and respectful care. Our goal is to help facilitate the best quality of life possible for our patients for the days, months, or years that remain for them. We recognize and acknowledge client autonomy but work with each individual to improve or support their health and social needs.
- Patients are admitted for supportive, subacute or rehabilitative care and have concurrent homelessness, mental illness, substance use dependency and their level of care does not meet long term care requirements and or they are unable to access homecare.
- Supportive care includes a variety of interventions such as pain management, symptom control, wound management, IV therapy, medication management, stabilization, cultural support, housing support, addictions support and treatment.
- Our medical team is specialized in treating HIV-related illnesses (such as lymphoma, mycobacterium avium complex, PML*, etc.), illnesses related to injection drug use (endocarditis, cellulitis), and comorbidities such as hepatitis C, diabetes, and mental illness.
- Supportive Care stays are generally up to 3 months
