BECKLEY, W.V. (LOOTPRESS) – FMRS Health Systems is opening its newest substance use residential treatment facility in Beckley.
The facility- located at 306 Withrow Loop on the Jackie Withrow Hospital campus- has been named The Oaks. It will provide both residential treatment for men with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders as well as medically monitored inpatient withdrawal management for men and women. The facility will serve 12 men in the residential treatment program and eight co-ed residents in the withdrawal management program.
“This opportunity to provide quality treatment for people who are struggling with substance use disorder and co-occurring mental and physical health disorders has been made possible by the WV DHHR and the Ryan Brown Addiction Prevention and Recovery Fund,” wrote Randall R. Venable, Chief Executive Officer of FMRS, who announced that the facility will be hosting an open house, to allow the community to see the city’s newest addition.
“FMRS has a long history of serving our community by providing behavioral health treatment in various settings,” he shared. “We do not often have the occasion to share our work with the public, hence we are enthusiastic to host the community at the center on this day.”
Guests will have the opportunity to tour the facility, meet its staff, and learn more about the evidence-based treatment services The Oaks will be providing.
The grand opening will be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, March 4. The occasion will be marked with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 12:15 p.m.
Those wishing to attend are asked to RSVP by emailing tking@fmrs.org or texting 304-890-4641.
