About this facility
Nestled in the woods outside Richmond, Arrowwood Addiction Treatment Center treats adults 18+ with substance use disorders, including alcohol, prescription drugs, and opioids. Their primary offerings are medical detox and residential treatment, but they also offer multiple levels of outpatient care as additional step-down options that clients can take to transition into long-term recovery. Additionally, Arrowwood can help clients find sober living.
Arrowwood has Joint Commission accreditation for ASAM care levels 3.5 and 3.7.
Arrowwood's team uses separate protocols to help clients safely taper off opioids than they do for alcohol. They know that detoxing from both drugs can be dangerous and have experience watching for mental health and physical health symptoms.
Arrowwood offers clients a mix of individual and group therapies, including the time-tested cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Clients learn how to understand their feelings and build healthy habits. In addition to evidence-based therapies, Arrowwood performs massage therapy and monitors clients' physical health.
Arrowwood also has family therapy for no additional charge for people who the client identifies as part of their support network. They consider addiction a family disease since it also harms the people around the individual with addiction. Their family therapy opens up space for family and friends to process their feelings, learn about the science of addiction, discuss how to rebuild trust with the client, and identify ways to provide healthy support for the client's long-term success.
Arrowwood's care team includes nurses, therapists, culinary staff, case managers, and an operations team. The nurses are on-site 24/7 and able to provide medications for any symptoms. The case managers help clients navigate their insurance, legal, financial, and professional challenges so that clients can complete therapy with peace of mind and still have a job when they complete treatment.
The majority of the staff is in long-term recovery, but Arrowwood also makes sure to hire staff who are friends or family members of people in recovery so that their perspective can help inform treatment.
To ensure the recovery environment is both comfortable and effective, Arrowwood's facility includes shared rooms with full-size beds, bathrooms with copper tubs, a 24/7 cafeteria, a sauna, a ping-pong table, a pool table, shared indoor and outdoor spaces, and a room for massage therapy. Part of the campus is laid out as a mock town, simulating life in long-term recovery with a fun and easy-to-navigate design.
Arrowwood makes the distinction that their facility is "residential" rather than "inpatient" because of the amenities and because clients can stay as long as they need.
The address for Arrowwood is officially in the town of Hopewell, but some sources list the address in Prince George, the town next to it. Either address refers to the same facility, which is surrounded by tall trees and 35 minutes from downtown Richmond.
