About Riverside University - San Jacinto Wellness & Recovery (New Life)
Set throughout the Inland Empire, Riverside University Health System (RUHS) is a general health care system, which includes treatment for mental health and substance use disorders in residential or outpatient programs. They are accredited by both the Joint Commission and CARF.
RUHS' San Jacinto Wellness & Recovery location operates under multiple names, including San Jacinto Wellness & Recovery for Mature Adults, San Jacinto New Life, and San Jacinto Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT).
Their programs cater to children, transitional age youth (16-25), midlife adults, and older adults 60+, offering tailored interventions for clients in each age group. Notably, RUHS emphasizes early intervention through initiatives like the Set-4-School program for children aged 0-5, recognizing the critical importance of early developmental support. RUHS can visit clients at home, especially older adults. They also have special programming for pregnant and parent women and individuals in the criminal justice system.
To make treatment more accessible, RUHS offers translation services for all its programs, including translation into American Sign Language (ASL). They welcome children up to 5 to come to treatment with their parents or guardians. All RUHS facilities, including their Hemet Family Care Center, are wheelchair accessible.
RUHS adopts a "whatever-it-takes" philosophy, providing personalized support that includes therapy, housing assistance, and daily life skills training to help individuals achieve stability and long-term recovery. They use medication support, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), multidimensional family therapy (MDFT), and coordination with primary care doctors to deliver the best treatment for each client.
Clients can access their treatment notes during and after care by using the MyChart app.
