York Addiction has been taking all precautionary measures to ensure the safety of both its staff and clients. The following protocols have been put into place at the facility:
- Prior to admission, a pre-intake is required. This is done over the phone and takes about 15-20 minutes.
- A Rapid Test is required within 24 hours of the intake date
- Rapid testing is conducted on site prior to client entering the facility for intake.
- Clients are to isolate for the first 72 hours at the facility prior to receiving their second rapid test. Once the second rapid test is clear- they are no longer in isolation.
- All staff are rapid tested and screened before entering the building for their shift.
- Masks are required in the facility.
- York Addiction has implemented hourly cleaning and sanitization of the facility – paying particular attention to high traffic areas and high touch areas.
- Due to the high number of cases and the vulnerability of our clients entering the facility, all visitations are suspended until further notice.
- Our medical detox program is only available if a client is choosing to complete residential programming (minimum 30 days or longer).
