About Chelsea Place Care Center
The state’s capital, Hartford, Connecticut is home to Chelsea Place Care Center. This skilled nursing care center provides addiction and mental health services through their secure 30 bed iRecovery unit. They welcome adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities and behavioral health conditions. You can access a safe, structured living environment to start or continue recovery.
Recreational Therapeutic Activities
What stands out most to me is their recreational therapeutic activities. They offer a vast selection of activities including interactive hobbies and games, arts and crafts, cooking classes, exercise groups, book clubs and more.
You can also participate in special events and outings like movie nights, holiday celebrations and outdoor picnics. These activities can help you explore new sober hobbies while connecting with peers in recovery.
Pet Therapy
I also think it’s wonderful that they offer pet therapy. Animal companionships can help you gain essential recovery skills and improve interpersonal relationships. You’ll benefit from unconditional love and support from pets to support your journey.
Dietary and Dining Services
Another great feature I noticed was their dining and dietary services. Their food service staff and dietitian collaborate with their occupational therapists to evaluate your eating capabilities and dietary needs. They prepare meals in house, carefully prioritizing special diets, health, and food quality. They even have a food committee that meets regularly to improve menu ideas.
Social Services Supports
I also think it’s nice that they provide social services supports. They work closely with you and your family to offer direct support for customized care. You can also access connections to community resources to continue recovery after treatment.

Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
Treatments
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
