Stepping Stones Unit – Meadville Medical Center

The Stepping Stones unit at Meadville Medical Center provides inpatient drug and alcohol detoxification and rehabilitation with outpatient counseling, for adults aged 18 and over. The program is short-term — rehabilitation ordinarily runs up to 28 days — and offers medically managed withdrawal and medication-assisted treatment. Admissions are screened through the hospital's emergency department, so entry is via the ED rather than a direct booking. Coverage includes Medicaid, Medicare, private and military insurance, state funding and public assistance, and self-paying clients are taken.
