About

About William J McCord

The William J. McCord Adolescent Treatment Facility is the inpatient adolescent treatment arm of the Tri-County Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse (TCCADA), a South Carolina county commission established in 1972. The facility is licensed and accredited by the Joint Commission and serves adolescents from Orangeburg, Bamberg, and Calhoun counties, alongside the broader TCCADA network of outpatient and prevention services.

The McCord program is built specifically for teens, with comprehensive inpatient treatment that targets the physical, mental, and emotional health concerns that often accompany adolescent substance use. Clients move through assessment, individual and group counseling, family work, and step-down planning into adolescent outpatient services. TCCADA also operates outpatient teen programming for clients who do not require an inpatient admission but still need structured intervention for substance use, mental health concerns, or family and school stressors.

Because McCord is housed within TCCADA, the family of a treated adolescent has access to a broader system of care. The Commission provides Behavioral Health Counseling, Prevention services through initiatives such as For the Love Of and The StoreFront Project, the South Carolina ADSAP (Alcohol and Drug Safety Action Program) for DUI clients, and Employment-Related Services including DOT physicals, drug screens, vaccinations, EAP, and CPR training. This breadth lets the same county-affiliated agency support an entire family system rather than only the teen in care.

Payment options reflect TCCADA’s mission as a public substance use authority. Medicaid, TRICARE, private insurance, and self-pay are accepted, with sliding-scale fees for families that qualify. The Commission’s goal, as stated on its website, is to be there for individuals and families ‘when you think you have nowhere else to go,’ making the William J. McCord Adolescent Treatment Facility an important regional resource for teen recovery in the Midlands of South Carolina.

Medical Detox Programs for Adolescents

William J. McCord operates under psychiatric hospital licensing, providing medically supervised detox specifically designed for adolescent patients. The facility's medical detox programs address withdrawal management for teens using alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and other substances, with protocols adapted for younger patients' unique physiological and psychological needs.

Inpatient detox services include 24/7 medical supervision and monitoring throughout the withdrawal process. The psychiatric hospital setting ensures immediate access to medical intervention when complications arise during detox, particularly important for adolescents who may experience more severe withdrawal symptoms or have underlying health conditions.

Residential Treatment and Dual Diagnosis Care

Following medical detox, adolescents can transition into residential treatment programs that address both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The facility specializes in dual diagnosis treatment, recognizing that many teens requiring detox also struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD, or other psychiatric disorders.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) serves as the primary therapeutic approach, helping adolescents develop coping strategies and address underlying issues contributing to substance use. Trauma-informed care is integrated throughout treatment, particularly for teens with PTSD who may have turned to substances as a way to manage traumatic experiences.

Outpatient Programs and Continuing Care

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) and standard outpatient services provide step-down care following residential treatment or serve as primary treatment for adolescents who don't require inpatient detox. These programs allow teens to maintain school attendance and family connections while receiving ongoing addiction treatment and withdrawal management support.

The facility operates Monday through Friday with extended hours, accommodating school schedules and family needs. Outpatient programs continue dual diagnosis treatment and provide relapse prevention education, helping adolescents maintain sobriety after completing medical detox and residential care.

Insurance Coverage and Accessibility

William J. McCord accepts Medicaid, private insurance, and TRICARE, making medical detox and addiction treatment accessible to families throughout Orangeburg, Bamberg, and Calhoun counties. The facility also offers self-pay options and sliding scale fees for uninsured families needing immediate medical detox services.

Specialized services for deaf and hard of hearing adolescents ensure that communication barriers don't prevent access to medical detox and withdrawal management. The facility's commitment to serving diverse populations reflects its mission to provide addiction treatment to all adolescents in need, regardless of ability or financial circumstances.
