About Unity Hospital of Rochester
Rooted in service to the local community, Rochester Regional Health offers a full range of care for mental health conditions and substance use disorders (SUD) through inpatient, outpatient, and community-based options. Programs include psychiatric treatment, chemical dependency services, school-linked youth programming, and crisis stabilization available around the clock. The center pairs hospital-level support with more flexible outpatient care, designing recovery plans for adults, adolescents, and families based on individual needs.
The clinical staff apply evidence-informed approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-aware care, and motivational interviewing (MI). For SUD, treatment may include medication-assisted treatment (MAT), outpatient detox, or inpatient rehabilitation. Rochester Regional Health follows a person-centered model that supports family involvement, peer support, and structured recovery planning. Specialized offerings, including LGBTQ+ affirming services and targeted adolescent supports, help ensure that more people can access help and build long-term stability.
The inpatient rehabilitation setting is designed to be safe and highly structured, helping clients strengthen recovery through therapy, medication oversight, and supervised recreational activities. Accommodations are shared, and typical stays range from two to four weeks depending on clinical requirements. Throughout treatment, participants take part in goal setting, educational sessions, and discharge planning to prepare for life after care. The program prioritizes safety, respect, and inclusion, providing a therapeutic environment where each person can work toward lasting, meaningful change.
