The Gleaner in Henderson, KY, highlights BrightView's premier substance use disorder treatment.

"At BrightView, a local outpatient treatment provider in Henderson, new patients can schedule appointments through a 24/7 call center or online. The treatment center accepts walk-ins on weekdays from 8 am to 3 pm. Patients can get medication, counseling, and social services support immediately.
Addiction treatment at an outpatient center is always less expensive than a residential facility, and not just because a larger percentage of care is covered by insurance. There's no need to pay for meals, housing, 24/7 care, and activities."

Most people struggling with addiction do not need to be hospitalized. They can often be successfully treated on an outpatient basis in their community.
