About Natchaug Hospital Inc

Natchaug Hospital is a Hartford HealthCare behavioral health hospital serving eastern Connecticut, offering psychiatric and substance use treatment for children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. Their 57-bed inpatient facility in Mansfield Center admits both male and female patients of all ages, with stays usually running about five to thirteen days. Beyond the hospital, they run partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs at several community sites, so people can keep receiving care as they step down from a higher level of support.

Their intensive outpatient program centers on group therapy, and hours and days are gradually cut back as a person makes progress. Adults can choose day or evening programming, separate tracks serve young adults and younger patients, and transportation is available. For opioid and alcohol use disorders, their Medication Assisted Treatment Close to Home (MATCH) program pairs therapy with medications such as buprenorphine products like Suboxone and Zubsolv, naltrexone including Vivitrol, acamprosate, and disulfiram, with sites in Groton, Dayville, Vernon, and Mansfield Center. Families may also want to know about The Seven Challenges program, an older adults program, and day treatment schools for younger patients.
