About

About Serenity Health Elkton

Serenity Health’s Elkton clinic at 953 West Pulaski Highway is the Cecil County companion to the organization’s Aberdeen location and shares its family-owned identity. The clinic is CARF-accredited and operates as a SAMHSA-certified Opioid Treatment Program, allowing it to provide methadone-based medication-assisted treatment alongside other approved medications and structured counseling.

The Elkton site offers outpatient services and an intensive outpatient program (IOP) for clients who benefit from more frequent group and individual sessions than standard weekly counseling. As an OTP, the clinic delivers daily dosing options for medication-assisted treatment, paired with counseling that addresses the behavioral, social, and emotional sides of opioid and other substance use. The organization’s continuum also includes early intervention and prevention services and short- and long-term detox support.

Serenity Health describes itself as one of the top 3% of programs treating substance use disorders. The Elkton location is built to support a diverse client base, including Veterans, pregnant women, older adults, men and women, individuals living with HIV/AIDS, and clients with court-related referrals. Cognitive behavioral therapy and structured group work anchor the clinical approach. Because CARF accreditation requires ongoing quality and outcome reporting, the clinic operates under independent standards that reinforce its public-facing claims.

Financially, the Elkton clinic accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, and self-pay, helping make services accessible across most coverage situations in Cecil County and the surrounding Upper Chesapeake area. The clinic line is (443) 485-6544; new clients can call to discuss intake, hours, and the steps for starting medication-assisted treatment.
