Facility Based Services include:

• Withdrawal Management services for Adults & Youth: provide medically supported services through acute stages of withdrawal from alcohol or other drugs in an inpatient setting. AXIS House in Castlegar provides Withdrawal Management treatment for Kootenay Boundary residents
• Treatment Services for Adults & Youth: provide a structured, live-in program where treatment goals are supported through assessment, evidence-based treatment and skill building.

In addition, Support Recovery Services provide a time-limited substance-free live-in setting. These safe, supportive environments are available for those experiencing low to moderate substance use.The  Adult Supported Recovery Service in Nelson serves Kootenay Boundary residents
