The Recovery Health
Access Center (RHAC) is here to help families, adults and
adolescents struggling with alcohol and/or drug use issues. RHAC provides
information and services including prevention programs, clinical
assessments, and treatment referrals to Hamilton
County (Ohio) residents.
Twenty-four hours a day, 7 days a
week, year round, clinicians answer questions and provide counsel. Our trained professionals conduct a
detailed screening for alcohol and drug use problems, and, when needed,
make an appropriate referral within the Hamilton County Alcohol/Drug
Addiction Services network.
Clinicians also offer full chemical dependency assessments that are
designed to identify the most appropriate care, using "core"
issues, so the caller can get help right away and easily interact with
providers in the network without having to frequently "re-tell"
their story. Speed is important to
address addiction, yet at times, the most appropriate service is not
immediately available. RHAC's
Transitional Support, a team of professionally trained clinicians, keeps
daily contact with the client to meet his or her needs until comprehensive
treatment becomes available.
The Recovery Health
Access Center (RHAC) is a service of The Hamilton County Mental Health
& Recovery Services Boardand the Alcoholism Council of the Cincinnati
