LAWRENCETOWN, NS, April 25,
2024 /CNW/ - EHN Canada proudly announces a
significant regional expansion of EHN Bellwood's legacy in
pioneering addiction and mental health treatment centres.
Recognizing the need in Nova
Scotia for both evidence-based care and facilities with 24/7
access to medical professionals, EHN Canada worked hard and fast to
bring both to the Maritimes when it reopened the unique Ledgehill
Treatment Centre in the Annapolis Valley in 2021. EHN
Canada's team of addiction and mental health experts have been
proud to offer their evidence-based, comprehensive care to
Atlantic Canada ever since. In the
intermittent years, Ledgehill Treatment Centre has helped more
Canadians receive world-class treatment – with access to on-site
medical professionals at any time.
As the next step in advancing the delivery of top-tier
mental health care to the Atlantic region, Ledgehill Treatment
Centre will officially become EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia on
April 22nd, marking its debut as
the second Bellwood location under the EHN Canada umbrella.
Steering this milestone is Helen
Luedee, a renowned leader in mental health and
addiction, now appointed as Executive Director of EHN Bellwood
Nova Scotia and EHN Guardians Atlantic (a facility serving
Canada's military, veterans and
first responder community).
"As Executive Director of EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia and EHN
Guardians Atlantic, I am thrilled to lead this significant
expansion of Bellwood's pioneering addiction and mental health
treatments in the Annapolis Valley. Our commitment to providing
compassionate care and innovative solutions remains steadfast as we
embark on this new chapter under the EHN Canada umbrella. EHN
Bellwood Nova Scotia will continue to provide excellence in care
for people with substance use disorder, building upon the excellent
evidence-based care that Bellwood is known for. Together, we will
continue to empower individuals on their journey towards wellness,
fostering hope and healing within our community"

EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia and EHN Guardians Atlantic
EHN Canada is a network of essential mental health and
addiction facilities across Canada. They are building on their reputation
for clinically informed, evidence-based, comprehensive treatment
for addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, and more with EHN
Bellwood Nova Scotia.
EHN Bellwood Toronto, a part of EHN Canada, has created and
administered treatment programs for addiction and related mental
health disorders for over 40 years. Their evidence-based
treatment model is rooted in the work of co-founder Dr.
Gordon Bell, a pioneer in
addiction rehab and treatment in Ontario. EHN Bellwood, as an addiction
treatment rehab centre, is defined by its long-standing experience,
combined with a commitment to excellent patient care.
EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia, is surrounded by lush green
spaces in its rural setting. With a focus on wellness, the staff
encourages patients to take advantage of the beautiful surroundings
to enjoy the fresh air and tranquillity and get outdoor exercise in
support of their recovery. Recognizing that an overstressed mental
health system is failing to provide prompt, effective care to many
residents in the region, the establishment of an EHN Bellwood
facility in Atlantic Canada marks
a significant milestone in advancing mental health care excellence
throughout the region.
At EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia, they believe that addiction rehab
treatment programs should be holistic and should address their
patients' psychological well-being, physical health, social world,
and spiritual life. They will offer a range of services, including
inpatient rehab, outpatient addiction therapy, alcohol
detoxification, virtual treatment, and holistic addiction
treatment.
EHN Bellwood Nova Scotia's programs provide immersive, 24/7
care with masters-level clinicians. An unwavering commitment to
intensive support ensures that both addiction and mental health
concerns are addressed in tandem, drawing upon the latest
scientific insights and evidence-based methodologies. This
