How do I start the admission process?
A phone call to the Contact Center, 800-567-8238, is the first step.

To insure appropriate placement there is a fair amount of information to be gathered, so a Harbour Pointe staff member will guide you through this process and make it as easy as possible for you. During this time, you may talk to a financial counselor regarding costs, insurance and payments. Some financial options may also be available to those who qualify.

How long will it take to get in?
Due to a variety of factors involved, one person might be able to be admitted virtually overnight, while another may have to wait a few days or a week. Admission can also be based on personal preference as some people choose a later admission date to coincide with their personal schedule. Your intake counselor will discuss admission dates once the intake process has begun.

Admission can vary from time to time. Admission dates are impacted by available space and the time it takes to conduct an intake interview and gather supporting medical information to insure appropriate admission. It may also be impacted by the gamblers motivation and willingness to enter treatment.

A Harbour Pointe Contact Center Representative will start the process by gathering information about you and arranging for you to speak to an intake counselor. If you are calling for yourself, or if you are calling for a family member or friend, this pre-intake process is the same and it is free and confidential with no obligation. If you prefer to have someone from Harbour Pointe call you, please provide us with some basic information and we will get back to you within 24 hours.
