The Summit County ADM Crisis Center provides a starting
point for Summit County residents to access comprehensive
alcohol and drug abuse treatment services.
More than 7,000 people use the chemical dependency
treatment services provided at the ADM Crisis Center each
year. Individuals may come to the Crisis Center on their own,
or with the help of a loved one. They may also be referred
by employers, physicians, social service agencies, law
enforcement officers, or other criminal justice professionals.
The County of Summit Alcohol, Drug Addiction, and Mental
Health Services (ADM) Board chose Oriana House to operate
the chemical dependency treatment programs. Psychiatric
emergency services are provided on the top level of the Crisis
Center by Portage Path Behavioral Health. Having assessment
and treatment resources available to those in need is the first
step in creating stronger, safer communities in Summit County.

Central Assessment
Detoxification
Central Assessment provides chemical dependency
evaluations with treatment recommendations and
referrals for adult, Summit County residents seeking
alcohol and chemical dependency treatment services.
Clients can be self-referred or referred by family,
friends, community agencies, courts, or probation or
parole officers.
Detoxification is a set of interventions aimed at managing
alcohol and other drug withdrawal. The detoxification
process consists of three essential components: evaluation,
stabilization, and preparation for entry into substance abuse
treatment. The Detoxification Unit provides medically
supervised inpatient and outpatient services to adult, Summit
County residents who are intoxicated or experiencing
withdrawal symptoms. A licensed treatment counselor does a
comprehensive assessment to determine the appropriate level
of detoxification care and follow-up treatment.
Individuals in need of alcohol and chemical
dependency treatment services can call
330-996-7730 to make an appointment for an
assessment. Walk-ins are also accepted Monday
through Friday from 8 a.m. - 1 p.m. Assessments can
last up to three hours.
Following the assessment, clients are referred to
residential or nonresidential treatment programs
depending on their level of need.
Cost is based on a sliding fee scale and some
insurance is accepted.
For more information, on any of
these services call 330-996-7730.
Sub-acute (inpatient) Detox: Round-the-clock nursing
care and medical support from a physician are provided.
Medications are used to treat withdrawal from alcohol, opiates
(including heroin and prescription drugs), and sedatives.
Individuals usually remain in the Detoxification Unit for three
to five days.
Ambulatory (outpatient) Detox: Ambulatory Detoxification
may be an option for individuals with a supportive home
environment. An appointment is made with a treatment
counselor, medical staff, and a treatment readiness facilitator
to discuss expectations, medication, and counseling. The
treatment counselor will make a referral for treatment which
will continue upon completion of ambulatory detox. If
eligible, a physical exam and the first dosage of medication is
scheduled. The individual needs to return daily to the ADM
Crisis Center initially to receive medications and counseling
support for a period of three to five days.
Cost is based on a sliding fee scale and some insurance is
accepted.
Peer Support
Support Groups:
Peer support groups
meet regularly at the
ADM Crisis Center
to help keep people
motivated and on-track
while waiting to begin
residential treatment.
Led by trained
recovery coaches, these
groups help people face
challenges by putting
them alongside others
who are going through
similar situations and
providing information
and encouragement.
Recovery Coaches:
These individuals have
gone through recovery
and are trained to serve
as personal guides
and mentors to others
who are seeking or in
recovery. Recovery
coaches spend time
with the individuals
they support and are
available to help them
with all aspects of their
recovery.
Treatment Readiness
A Treatment Readiness Group holds daily, open meetings Monday
through Friday, allowing individuals to be engaged in the recovery
process while they await services for their next level of care. There
are two group facilitators (a licensed treatment counselor and a
recovery coach) who help clients identify and respond to their
individual barriers. The facilitators also help the clients develop and
practice relapse prevention skills.
Drop-In Center
The Drop-In Center is for adult, Summit County residents who
require a short stay in a safe environment so they may sufficiently
recuperate from the immediate effects of alcohol and/or drugs.
Clients may be self-referred or brought to the Drop-In Center by
police. Clients remain in the Drop-In Center and are monitored
for withdrawal symptoms until the effects of the substance have
dissipated. Assessments and referral services to community
treatment agencies are offered.
There is no cost to the client for the Drop-In Center.
Summit Link
The Summit Link program monitors
individuals who have a pending misdemeanor
charge related to drugs or alcohol and have
been ordered by the court to undergo treatment
counseling. Clients are assessed, referred
to residential or nonresidential treatment
programs, and monitored for compliance and
coordination of treatment services.
Clients are not charged any fees for the
Summit Link program.
