About this Recovery House
Addiction Stabilization Center is a residential recovery program in Binghamton, New York, in Broome County, operated by Fairview Recovery Services for men and women over 18. It is a Part 820 stabilization setting, and the street address is not published on the program's own page.
A Twenty-Four-Hour Stabilization Setting for Adults
This is therapeutic residency in a secure, round-the-clock structured residential setting. Adults over 18 of any gender are eligible. The work here is medical and clinical stabilization of withdrawal symptoms and severe cravings, with medication-assisted withdrawal used when it is clinically indicated. Individual counseling and therapeutic groups run alongside the medical care to support emotional wellness, and staff make referrals to the next level of treatment before discharge.
How Long a Stay in This Recovery Residence Runs
Length of stay is person-centered, based on individual needs and progress, and the average is approximately 28 days. Four weeks is enough time to get through acute withdrawal, get a medication regimen settled, and have a next placement arranged, which is the actual test of a stabilization program. Where someone goes on day 29 is decided during the stay instead of on the morning of discharge.
Self-Referral Into a Sober Living Program
The program accepts referrals from the person themselves, from legal representatives, specialty courts, the Department of Social Services, Child Protective Services and other drug and alcohol treatment providers. Self-referral is the significant one. A great many stabilization programs are reachable only through a clinician or a court, which means the person who decides at two in the morning that they are done has to wait days to act on it. An open door shortens that gap.
Where the Recovery Home Sits in Broome County
The address is not published, and placement runs through Fairview Recovery Services. The program operates in Binghamton, the seat of Broome County and the largest city in New York's Southern Tier, where the Chenango River meets the Susquehanna. County courts, probation, social services and UHS hospital services are concentrated in and around the downtown, and the Broome County Transit network covers the city. Referrals arrive from across the Southern Tier, including Tioga and Chenango Counties.
What Comes After Stabilization in This Recovery Housing System
Fairview runs the levels that follow: congregate residential reintegration for men and for women on Merrick Street, residences on Clapham Street and Court Street, and a 45-bed scattered-site apartment program for people close to independent living. Someone stabilizing here can step directly into that continuum without changing organizations. New York does not require recovery residences to hold certification, and the state's voluntary credentials are described in this certification guide.
