About UNC Health Pardee
UNC Health Pardee is a hospital-based substance use treatment facility located at 800 North Justice Street in Hendersonville, North Carolina, serving Henderson County and the surrounding region. Home to PATHS — a dual-diagnosis addiction treatment center — UNC Health Pardee brings the infrastructure of an established health system to the work of medically supervised detox and residential care. That hospital-level backing sets it apart from freestanding treatment centers in western North Carolina.
The facility offers two primary levels of care: medical detox and residential treatment. Medical detox provides structured withdrawal management for adults under clinical supervision, available around the clock every day of the week. Following detox, patients can transition into residential treatment, allowing for continuity of care within the same system rather than requiring a separate admission elsewhere.
PATHS is structured specifically as a dual-diagnosis program, meaning it addresses co-occurring mental health conditions — including trauma and PTSD — alongside substance use. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the therapeutic methods used within the program. This integrated approach is particularly relevant for people whose substance use is entangled with unresolved trauma or other psychiatric conditions.
UNC Health Pardee serves men and women, including individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Financially, the program accepts a broad range of payment sources: Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay. For families in Henderson County navigating an urgent situation, the facility’s 24/7 availability and diverse payment options make it a practical and accessible option for medically supervised detox and inpatient care.
