Addiction Medicine Fellowship Clinical Sites

Addiction Medicine fellows will have the opportunity to learn and practice at a number of clinical sites at Community Health Network, including hospitals, behavioral health and addiction support facilities, as well as family medicine and community health centers.

Behavioral Health Pavilion

Fellows will complete their inpatient adult addiction medicine rotation at the Behavioral Health Pavilion on the Community Hospital North campus. There is potential to supervise and work alongside the psychiatry residents during these rotations. The Behavioral Health Pavilion is a full-service, 122-bed inpatient behavioral health hospital and has nine units which offer unique programming to fit the needs of our patients. Two separate units for children and adolescents are dedicated to treating youth ages 5 – 18. Specialized units offer treatment focusing on integrated recovery (co-occurring addiction and mental health disorders), mood disorders (depression and anxiety issues), serious mental illness, as well as a psychiatric intensive care unit for consumers who need a highly-controlled and monitored setting to ensure safety. Seasons is our older adult unit for those experiencing significant behavioral changes resulting from medications, life events, and new or progressing psychiatric conditions. The inpatient experiences focus on the thorough evaluation and stabilization of an acute episode with follow-up care arranged in the community. Fellows are supervised by addiction medicine internists, will work alongside the psychiatrists, and engage with multidisciplinary staff members in the treatment of patients.
