Directory Features Sources of Help for Psychiatric and Addiction Treatment

The NAPHS directory is a comprehensive referral resource providing information on the nation's behavioral healthcare systems. It is designed to help clinicians, admissions staffs, employee assistance directors, school counselors, nursing home staffs, librarians, legal system personnel, and others who must quickly identify treatment services for individuals with psychiatric and addictive disorders.

The directory includes the name, address, phone/fax, and officers (by name) of each behavioral health system. The facilities operated by each system--including specialty hospitals, psychiatric units in general hospitals, residential treatment centers, partial hospital programs, and outpatient centers--are also listed. To help locate services in particular states, a geographical listing of facilities--including the name of the chief operating officer of each--is included.
