Chemical Dependency . Miller-Dwan and Waters of Park Point Treatment Program

Chemical Dependency Program - 
Miller-Dwan & Waters of Park Point

Miller-Dwan and Waters of Park Point provide comprehensive chemical dependency treatment to individuals requiring 24-hour skilled nursing or rehabilitation care. They can have their physical needs met and receive treatment for alcohol and/or substance abuse.

The program is open to Waters of Park Point residents and those receiving skilled nursing care in other settings.

The program is Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
