Chemical dependency is more than a drug or alcohol habit that’s out of control. It is a serious illness with debilitating symptoms. A chemically dependent person has lost the ability to willingly stop drinking, or taking a particular mood-altering drug despite the consequences it causes on their life.

The Stuyvesant Square Chemical Dependency Treatment Program at Beth Israel Medical Center is a leader in providing optimal, cost-effective services to help the chemically dependent person regain stability. Since this program is located in a hospital (Beth Israel Medical Center’s Bernstein Pavillion), we are able to provide a wide range of services within the same vicinity. Through our hospital-based program, patients receive the highest quality of medical and patient centered-care based on their individual needs. Our outstanding interdisciplinary team includes social workers, addiction and substance abuse counselors, physicians, physician assistants and registered nurses—who are skilled in working with and treating addiction.

Our Mission
Our mission at Stuyvesant Square is to provide individuals and families with the best recovery- oriented chemical dependency services that respect cultural differences and foster hope strength, self-determination and dignity.
