Spectrum Health Systems, Inc., an innovative non-profit provider of evidence-based treatment for substance use and mental health disorders, today announced the opening of a new treatment facility at 10 Technology Drive in Lowell, Massachusetts. The newly renovated center reflects Spectrum’s ongoing commitment to expanding access to high-quality, community-based care in regions facing increased demand for substance use services.
“Lowell and the surrounding communities continue to face a critical need for accessible, comprehensive substance use treatment,” said Kristin Nolan, Chief Operating Officer at Spectrum Health Systems. “This facility meets individuals where they are, offering multiple levels of care under one roof to support a more seamless path to recovery.”
The Lowell facility provides three integrated levels of care, including a 16-bed inpatient detoxification unit with 24/7 medical monitoring, a 44-bed Clinical Stabilization Services (CSS) program for short-term residential treatment, and outpatient services offered six days a week with medication for addiction treatment as well as individual and group counseling.
“Expanding access to treatment in Lowell is an important step in addressing the substance use crisis impacting our community,” said Thomas A. Golden, Jr., City Manager of Lowell. “We are grateful for Spectrum Health Systems’ investment and commitment to supporting individuals and families on their path to recovery.”
The facility also reflects a collaborative approach to care, co-located with a program operated by Vinfen that offers an alternative to emergency rooms and incarceration for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises, allowing for more seamless transitions into Spectrum’s treatment services.
Since its founding in 1969, Spectrum Health Systems has helped countless individuals overcome addiction and reclaim their lives, and today offers the most comprehensive continuum of substance use disorder treatment services in the region. The addition of the Lowell facility further strengthens its ability to deliver timely, evidence-based care across Massachusetts.
The Lowell treatment facility will open later this month, offering services to the public at 10 Technology Drive, Lowell, MA 01851.
