About Evergreen Treatment Center

Evergreen Treatment Center operates within Bergen New Bridge Medical Center, a 1,070-bed clinical affiliate of Rutgers and the largest hospital in New Jersey. Located at 230 East Ridgewood Avenue in Paramus, the program delivers hospital-based substance use and mental health treatment as part of a comprehensive safety-net medical center that also offers acute care, ambulatory services, emergency medicine, surgical suites, long-term care, and primary care.

Levels of care include medical detoxification, hospital-based inpatient treatment, intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient services, supporting clients through the full continuum from acute stabilization to ongoing recovery. The Hope & Resiliency Center for Youth on the Bergen New Bridge campus provides specialized behavioral health programming for adolescents and their families, allowing teens to continue attending school during the day while receiving structured treatment – an unusual configuration that lowers barriers for families balancing school and care.

Medical Detox Programs and Withdrawal Management

Evergreen Treatment Center's medical detox program operates within Bergen New Bridge Medical Center, providing hospital-level care for alcohol detox, opioid detox, and withdrawal from other substances. The 24-hour medical supervision ensures patient safety during the acute withdrawal phase, with immediate access to emergency medical interventions when complications arise. This medically supervised detox approach addresses the physical and psychological challenges of withdrawal through structured protocols.

The detox center serves as the entry point for individuals requiring safe withdrawal management before progressing to residential treatment or outpatient programs. Medical staff monitor vital signs, administer withdrawal medications when appropriate, and manage symptoms that could become life-threatening without proper medical oversight. This hospital-based setting distinguishes the program from standalone detox facilities that may lack comprehensive medical resources.

Dual Diagnosis and Co-occurring Disorder Treatment

The treatment center specializes in dual diagnosis care, addressing substance use disorders alongside co-occurring mental health conditions during the detox process. This integrated approach recognizes that many individuals entering medical detox programs also struggle with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or other psychiatric conditions that complicate withdrawal management. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) serves as a core therapeutic method throughout treatment.

Co-occurring disorder treatment begins during medical detox and continues through residential and outpatient programming. The facility's comprehensive assessment process identifies mental health conditions that require concurrent treatment, ensuring that both addiction and psychiatric symptoms receive appropriate clinical attention during the critical early stages of recovery.

Adolescent and Adult Treatment Services

Evergreen Treatment Center provides detox programs for both adolescents and adults, with age-appropriate protocols for younger patients requiring medical withdrawal management. Adolescent detox services address the unique medical and psychological needs of teenagers struggling with substance use disorders, while adult programs serve individuals across all age ranges requiring medically supervised detox.

The multi-level care structure allows patients to transition from medical detox into residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), or standard outpatient care based on individual needs. This continuum of care ensures that patients receive appropriate levels of support as they progress through different phases of addiction treatment following successful completion of the detox program.
