WESTBOROUGH, Mass. - To help increase access to recovery care in the area, New England Recovery Center and Spectrum Health Systems opened a new centralized admissions center in Westborough. The center allows for administration, intake and both inpatient and outpatient recovery services to be on the same campus. They'll be able to serve anyone regardless of the level of care needed. 

Executive director of inpatient services, Marybeth Adams, said patients come in and are triaged with the nursing team. The team will then determine what level of treatment is needed. 

“Just really proud of opening this new program," Adams said. "It’s a beautiful thing to be able to combine Spectrum and New England Recovery Center. We can serve so many people here on campus and also help you and your families."

Between Spectrum and New England Recovery Center, this new center will serve about 20 patients a day. The center also has the ability to treat people for up to a year on campus with their residential program.
