Recovery Response Center - Ellendale

Welcome to the Ellendale Recovery Response Center

At the Ellendale Recovery Response Center, we offer a compassionate and welcoming environment designed to support your journey towards mental health and recovery. Your journey to mental health and recovery will be embraced with empathy, dedicated support, and professional care. Our center serves as a sanctuary for those seeking both immediate and long-term mental health assistance in a secure and caring environment. Our campus features a Retreat unit, a 23-hour observation unit, with services designed to meet your unique needs. We serve individuals, voluntary and involuntary, who are 18 years and older.

The Retreat Unit: Our Retreat Unit embodies a warm and open concept. Think of the Retreat as a “psychiatric emergency room" and the first step towards treatment. Open 24/7, our team triages, clinically and medically assesses each guest to determine their needs. Under the guidance of a psychiatric nurse practitioner or psychiatrist, we offer:

Immediate Crisis Intervention
Comprehensive Treatment for Mental Health and Substance Use Concerns
Initiation or Continuation of Medications for Mental Health concerns
Detoxification and Withdrawal Management from opioids, benzodiazepines, and alcohol
Protocols for Medications for Substance Use Disorders (MAT/MOUD/MSUD)
Peer support and basic needs assistance

Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and healing space where you can begin your recovery journey with the care and respect you deserve. In the Retreat unit, our dedicated team provides peer support and addresses basic needs, immediate crisis intervention, and medication support, as well as ensures the next appropriate level of care is secured, which may include community services, facility-based detox services, or inpatient hospitalization.

Our Approach: We embrace a peer-powered approach, where individuals with lived experience in recovery provide empathy and understanding, seamlessly integrated with our clinical and medical expertise to ensure holistic, person-centered care, ensuring that our care is trauma-informed, compassionate, and inviting. Our goals are to reduce the intensity of symptoms, prevent harm, and facilitate recovery.

No Fee for Service: Our services are funded by DSAMH, so there is no charge to guests.

Get in Touch: Services are available and referrals are accepted 24/7 through walk-ins, family referral, first responder drop-off, or provider agency referral. Utilize the DTRAN/OPEN BEDS platform for referrals. Ready for the next steps? Visit our lobby for assistance or Call our front desk at 302-424-5660
