NRTH Provo Residential Program

New Roads to Healing (NRTH) is a Residential program in the New Roads Provo Treatment Center.

There, New Roads uses an Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team to offer multi-disciplinary treatments and roads to healing, including psychiatric intervention, to male clients with chronic persistent mental illness, such as Schizophrenia, Borderline Personality, and Bipolar disorders.

This program includes:

New Roads uses an Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team to offer multi-disciplinary treatment, including psychiatric intervention, to male clients with chronic persistent mental illness, such as Schizophrenia, Borderline Personality, and Bipolar disorders. The ACT team consists of therapists, the Program Director, two case managers, a Psychiatrist, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, a Medical Assistant, and other ad hoc members, making the roads to healing easily accessible. The team meets every morning to discuss each client and plan the day’s interventions, including therapies, vocational training, case management, recreation, etc. During morning meeting the effects of the psychiatric medications are reviewed and medical staff titrate medication appropriately.

12-Step Group Meetings

The 12-Step process has been in use for decades by Alcoholics Anonymous and other addiction recovery programs. These meetings offer clients the chance to commit to sobriety together, share experiences and struggles, and begin to develop a healthier mindset and lifestyle.

Random Drug Testing

Drug testing is the most obvious way to tell whether a client’s recovery process is on track, or whether they need additional help with relapse prevention.

Medical Management

Many of our clients require regular medication to help them manage mental illnesses or other conditions. We will help them stay on schedule, refill their prescriptions, and ensure their medical well-being. (Additional cost will apply.)

24/7 Staff Availability

In case of emergency, personal crisis, or any other need, our clients are able to contact staff members at any time, day or night.

Group Sessions

These group therapy meetings typically focus on one aspect of treatment at a time, allowing clients to come together to practice their recovery skills. Topics include DBT, cognitive behavior, life skills training, and more.

Individual Sessions

It is important for all our clients to have a safe space to talk to a knowledgeable, caring professional. One-on-one time with a therapist allows them to share their thoughts, feelings, and concerns without fear of judgement, and helps us determine how best to support their recovery.

Family Sessions

As family members, your support is crucial to your loved one’s healing process. If you are unable to attend in-person, these meetings can take place over the phone, or through Skype.

Relapse Prevention Planning

Relapses can happen to anyone, and are often discouraging. This is why we help each client develop a personal relapse prevention plan from the very beginning of treatment, to stop slip-ups before they happen.

Residential Facility

Residential facility at New Roads Behavioral Health is located in Utah. Providing the best in medical, psychological and group therapies.

Recreation

Our treatment programs incorporate a variety of recreational activities including: bowling, skiing, basketball, hiking and more.

Transitional Program

For some of our clients, residential care isn’t quite enough to help them get back on their feet. Our transitional program provides these clients with ongoing medical oversight and therapeutic support, while helping them build the skills they need to move forward in their lives.

We offer semi-independent apartment living, life skills training, education and internship opportunities, and more—all geared toward ensuring a healthy, successful, sober future.

Teaching independence, responsibility, and self-care.

While their peers have been learning the skills they need to be self-sufficient, many adults with mental health concerns have had to focus on surviving, one day at a time. To counteract this, “life skills training” is a major component of the NoRTH program. These skills range from the simple (how to keep a living space clean) to the more complex (how to apply and interview for jobs), but all are important pieces for building the foundation of a healthy, fulfilling life. Find the roads to healing that are best for you or your loved one.

Community Integration

The goal of NoRTH is community integration for the clients. NoRTH clients are encouraged to begin to participate in a life outside of Residential as soon as they are reasonably stable. Case managers help clients find meaningful activities, including volunteer work, vocational training, jobs, recreation, etc.

To this end, many clients participate in a ‘dorm’ level of care. Clients will leave the facility during the day to participate in their activities. They then return during the evenings to monitor their ADL’s, ensure medication compliance, participate in therapeutic activities, etc. Eventually, clients can move into apartments or home while participating in PHP.

About Our Program

Typically, NoRTH clients are referred from acute care settings, insurers, or other programs who are not well-equipped to manage their symptoms.

Thus, New Roads maintains collaborative relationships with payers, psychiatric hospitals, emergency rooms, law enforcement, etc. These relationships, particularly the one with Utah Valley Regional Medical Center, are imperative in the treatment of clients whose acuity levels vacillate.

Areas: Because it is an RTC, NoRTH can serve clients from throughout Utah. In the case of PHP, clients typically need housing in the Provo/Utah County area.
The NoRTH program accepts clients 365 days per year
Admissions are preferred Monday through Friday to ensure adequate and quick intervention. However, New Roads understands that weekend admissions are sometimes unavoidable.
Lengths of stay (LOS) are based upon average historically approved spans by care managers. Residential LOS is on average 27 days. PHP LOS is on average 11 weeks.
Basic medical services are offered by a Physician’s Assistant one day a week at the Provo facility.

A Continuum of Care for Lasting Healing

Our team members are highly skilled in a variety of therapeutic modalities and techniques. We use a combination of evidence-based treatment methods, including dual diagnosis and individually tailored treatment to meet your specific needs.

Active, Positive, Growth-Oriented Community

During residential treatment, we encourage our clients to practice maintaining healthy, balanced lifestyle. In addition to addiction, self-harm, and other destructive habits, many adults struggle with rigid thinking patterns. These hamper our ability to learn, change, and progress. Creative expression, thought exercises, and physical activity can help break this rigidity, allowing our clients to achieve greater emotional freedom and growth.
