In response to the growing drug addiction epidemic, the new 30,000 SF Residential Treatment Facility represents a public-private development between Glenmark Holdings, Ascension Recovery Services and WVU Medicine. Care is provided in a facility that is specifically designed to emphasize residential character. The facility can accommodate 30 standard care residents and an additional 12 individuals in the Detoxification unit. In addition to administrative offices, counselling offices and group therapy rooms, the building offers a wide variety of amenities. These include the Lobby, Library, Meditation Room, Exercise Room, Resident Laundry and Community Rooms. Meals are prepared in a commercial kitchen and served in a 2,200 SF Dining Room that also doubles as a large Meeting Room.

 

The site development provides expansive views of the Mylan Park surroundings and includes covered porches, walking trails and landscaping. The architectural style of the building features forms and materials that reflect the feel of a mountain lodge. Exterior materials include stone veneer, lap and cedar siding, metal roofs and heavy timber columns at porches.

 

The Residential Treatment Facility also includes modern engineering systems. It is of steel frame construction and fully protected with a Fire Sprinkler system. The mechanical system features Split System Variable Refrigerant Flow units providing individual temperature control to virtually every space in the building. Internet Wi-Fi connectivity is available throughout the facility. Security access, alarms and cameras are also included.
