Roberto Flores Program - Dual Diagnosis Residential Treatment

Formerly housed at a facility in Euclid, Roberto Flores Home, now, the Roberto Flores Program at ORCA House, is an 8-bed program operated by Signature Health. It serves adults who have a dual mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis.

This program's approach to care is abstinence-based and trauma-informed, with residents typically staying for 9 to 12 months of treatment. With the help of the treatment team, residents gain the skills they need to prevent drug or alcohol relapse, and to support their long-term recovery after completing the program. Services include:

• Intensive outpatient program (IOP) for dual diagnosis (5 days per week, led by a licensed counselor)
• Individual counseling (i.e., 1-on-1 psychotherapy)
• Social/recreational support and activities
• Life skills support (e.g., medication monitoring)
• Connection to Signature Health medical providers as needed (psychiatry, primary care and infectious disease)

After completing the IOP phase, residents step down the intensity and frequency of treatment while remaining in a supported, residential environment. Their time shifts to participating in more community activities as they prepare to leave the facility, such as seeking employment, finding housing (if needed), and practicing relapse prevention skills.
