Addiction Treatment Center in Cherry Hill Planned

CHERRY HILL, N.J. - Oct. 26, 2018 - PRLog -- An inpatient addiction treatment center in Cherry Hill, New Jersey being planned by a university and a behavioral health management company.

Cooper University Health Care and Advanced Recovery Systems (ARS) are teaming up to construct a $27 million facility that will contain 90 beds. The inpatient addiction treatment center is scheduled to open near the end of 2019. Officials for both companies have stated that the addiction treatment center will be the first of several facilities planned for the area.

ARS, originally based in Florida, also has drug treatment centers in Florida, Washington, Maryland, Colorado and Ohio. It provides substance abuse and behavioral health treatment services through evidence-based care. Some of the addiction treatment services ARS provides include medically-assisted detox, residential treatment, outpatient care and sober housing. It also has an inpatient addiction treatment center dedicated specifically to firefighters and drug abuse facilities specialized for youths and adolescents.

Two years ago, ARS wanted to build a treatment center in another part of Cherry Hill. However, a lawsuit filed by city forced them to change their plans and find another location for the inpatient substance abuse treatment center. Cherry Hill officials agreed to allow ARS to construct a rehab center if it moved.
