About
About Arms Acres Inc
Arms Acres is a 191-bed licensed inpatient and outpatient treatment center on a tranquil 54-acre campus in Carmel Hamlet, Putnam County, New York. The facility is accredited by The Joint Commission, SAMHSA-listed as a substance use treatment provider, and registered as an Opioid Treatment Program — a notable certification that pairs methadone-assisted care with the broader substance use disorder treatment available across the Arms Acres continuum.
The Carmel campus runs a medically supervised inpatient detox program staffed by a multidisciplinary team of physicians, psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, and counselors, along with adult rehabilitation and outpatient services on the same site. The outpatient and intensive outpatient programs are designed for adults dealing with alcohol addiction, drug addiction, opioid use disorder, and co-occurring medical and mental health disorders including bipolar disorder, eating disorders, and severe anxiety. The clinical curriculum is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, with a patient-centered approach to individuals living with serious mental health conditions alongside substance use.
What distinguishes Arms Acres beyond its 191-bed scale is the breadth of supportive programs. Patients have access to an Equine Therapy Program, a Fitness and Recreation Program, on-site Psychiatric Services, Medication-Assisted Therapy when clinically necessary, and Recovery Coach Services. Outpatient sister sites in the Bronx and Queens give patients a step-down option closer to home as they reintegrate. SAMHSA records confirm services for veterans, pregnant women, seniors and older adults, men, women, court-ordered patients, and patients with HIV/AIDS support needs, plus Tagalog-language support.
The organization is led by CEO Patrice Wallace-Moore, LCSWR. Toni Spera, LMSW, formerly Clinical Director of Inpatient and Detoxification Clinical Services at sister facility Conifer Park, is referenced on the Arms Acres site as part of the broader clinical voice. Arms Acres accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, self-pay, and offers a sliding scale, with admissions handled through 1-888-227-4641 — staffed 24/7 with intake coordinators who walk patients and families through treatment, length of stay, transportation, and the family program.
