Programs
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Newport Mental Health’s Hope Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) specializes in the treatment of substance use disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. The IOP utilizes evidenced-based practices and harm reduction strategies to provide individuals with more intensive support and therapy than traditional outpatient services, while allowing them to maintain a level of independence and continue with their daily living activities. The lOP can be used as an initial point of entry into care, as a step up from routine outpatient services, or as a step down from acute inpatient, residential care, or partial hospitalization programs.

Integrated Dual Disorder Treatment (IDDT)
Newport Mental Health’s Integrated Dual Disorder Treatment (IDDT) is an evidence-based approach designed to address severe and persistent, co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders by integrating mental health and substance use treatment. It is a voluntary, long-term, and assertive outpatient program that assists individuals with recovery and improves their quality of life. Treatment is tailored to the unique needs of each individual, considering their stage of recovery, goals, and cultural background, with an emphasis on shared decision making, ensuring that individuals play an active role in their care. IDDT allows for mental health and substance use treatments to be provided by the same multidisciplinary team, promoting care continuity and reducing barriers to gaps in care.

Additional Support and Services
Clients in our programs receive additional support, care, and services as needed.
Adult Primary Care Services
Newport Mental Health coordinates with CODAC to provide primary care services to our clients with serious mental illness and/or serious substance use disorders. The primary care center is located at 65 Valley Road in Middletown.
Zero Suicide
Our healthcare providers are specially trained in administering an evidence-based screening tool, the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale, at each contact with those we serve. Newport Mental Health providers initiate a Pathway to Safety for those individuals identified as at-risk, who are then given specialized suicide prevention treatment services and are closely monitored until their risk subsides. Ongoing follow-up is provided to reduce the reoccurrence of suicide risk.
Telehealth
Appointments with a clinician or prescriber can be arranged via telehealth. Private telehealth consultation rooms are available in our offices for those clients who do not have internet access or a computer.
Supportive Employment
Work and other meaningful activities are an integral part of recovery. Employment specialists use an evidence-based employment model called Individual Placement Services and Supports (IPS) to help clients find employment and then provide support both for the client and the employer.
Supportive Housing
Residential support staff assist our clients who live independently. Skills training is provided for budgeting and money management, household chores, shopping, cooking, and other areas needed to be successful in independent living.
Shelter Plus Care/Supportive Housing Program
This federally supported program allows Newport Mental Health to provide rental assistance for the unhoused with serious mental illness.
Housing Stabilization Services
A Medicaid-funded housing support service allows us to provide at-risk clients housing stabilization to prevent the loss of existing housing or to provide help finding affordable housing in the community. We coordinate with housing support staff at the Newport Housing Authority, McKinney Shelter/50 Washington Square Apartments, and senior housing developments in Newport County.
Representative Payee Service
Rep-Payee is offered to those clients who experience problems in managing their money. Newport Mental Health staff work closely with clients receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) in establishing and maintaining a budget.
