About

About RHA Health Services Inc

RHA Health Services maintains a Wilmington, North Carolina outpatient location as part of its broader CARF-accredited non-profit network, which has served individuals with developmental disabilities, mental health needs, and substance use challenges across five states since 1991. The Wilmington site is positioned to serve southeastern coastal North Carolina, offering inpatient referrals and outpatient programming for adults and young adults navigating substance use disorders, with services structured to address co-occurring mental health concerns alongside addiction.

Clinical work at the Wilmington outpatient site includes group therapy, individual counseling, and integrated mental health counseling for co-occurring disorders. Medication-assisted treatment is offered as part of the substance use service line, which is particularly relevant given the opioid impact on the broader Cape Fear region. The center’s outpatient structure is designed for clients who are stable enough to live at home while participating in scheduled treatment sessions, and it integrates with RHA’s broader array of services — including community-based programs, crisis services, and care management — across the state.

As a CARF-accredited organization, RHA operates under independent verification of its compliance with rehabilitation industry standards. The organization publicly aligns its work with the Council on Quality and Leadership (CQL) Personal Outcomes framework, which emphasizes individualized planning and measurable outcomes that meaningfully matter to the person being served. For clients in southeastern North Carolina, this means programming that is structured around the individual’s goals rather than off-the-shelf treatment templates.

For populations served, RHA’s Wilmington outpatient location works with adults, young adults, and children needing behavioral health and substance use support. Prospective clients should contact the location at (910) 632-2191 to confirm current intake availability, services offered at this specific site, and accepted insurance. RHA’s main intake line, 1-800-848-0180, is also available for navigation to the appropriate service across the multi-state network.

Medical Detox and Withdrawal Management Services

RHA Health Services Inc provides facility-based crisis and substance use detox services through their Wilmington location on South 17th Street. The center's medically supervised detox programs address both alcohol detox and drug detox needs, utilizing medication-assisted therapy when clinically appropriate for withdrawal management. Their CARF accreditation ensures adherence to established protocols for safe detoxification procedures.

Walk-in crisis services allow individuals experiencing acute withdrawal symptoms to access immediate medical evaluation and detox placement. The facility's mobile crisis services extend their withdrawal management capabilities beyond the clinic setting, providing critical intervention for those unable to transport themselves for detox care. These services bridge the gap between crisis presentation and structured detox program enrollment.

Outpatient Detox Programs and Treatment Structure

The facility operates as an outpatient clinic offering structured detox programs that allow patients to receive medically supervised withdrawal management while maintaining certain daily activities. Operating Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, RHA Health Services coordinates detox care with ongoing mental health counseling for individuals presenting with co-occurring disorders during withdrawal.

Group therapy sessions and individual counseling complement the medical aspects of detox, addressing both the physical symptoms of withdrawal and underlying behavioral health concerns. The integration of mental health services during detox helps stabilize patients experiencing psychiatric symptoms alongside substance withdrawal, particularly important for complex cases involving multiple substances or psychiatric medications.

Populations Served and Crisis Intervention

RHA Health Services provides detox services for adults, young adults, and children, making it one of the few facilities in New Hanover County offering medically supervised withdrawal management for adolescent populations. Their crisis intervention model allows for rapid assessment and detox placement, critical for families dealing with acute withdrawal situations requiring immediate medical attention.

The facility's nonprofit status supports their mission of providing accessible detox services to the Wilmington community regardless of financial circumstances. Their established service area focus on Wilmington ensures familiarity with local healthcare networks and continuation of care resources following completion of initial withdrawal management.
