The Facility
The River Centre Clinic is a spacious, comfortable, and modern treatment facility located in a private setting in Sylvania, Ohio -- an historic suburb of Toledo, Ohio. (Take a Photo Tour.)

The facility was designed to provide an attractive alternative to hospital or hospital-based programs. The main building was newly constructed in December 1999 and is located on the banks of a picturesque, 10-mile creek across from a public park with walking trails.

The River Centre Clinic is a two-minute walk to a small shopping area in downtown Sylvania, and there is easy access to shopping and entertainment. A three-bedroom home is also located on the River Centre Clinic campus and offers one of our transitional living options for program participants.
Our Mission
The River Centre Clinic's mission is to provide specialized and cost-effective treatment for individuals suffering from eating disorders.

The approach to treatment conforms to the adaptation of a theoretical cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) model for eating disorders developed over the past 30 years by the founder of the RCC and colleagues.

A cornerstone of this model is its linkage to evidence-based treatment principles whereby treatment implementation is continually refined through a Performance Improvement Plan. This plan is designed to monitor and evaluate the quality and cost-effectiveness of specialized treatment services delivered to individuals who suffer from eating disorders. A key to this mission is a staff of highly trained professionals who have the special technical expertise as well as the compassion needed to treat individuals who suffer from eating disorders.
Independent Living
Residence
The River Centre Clinic offers an independent living area as a safe and comfortable living option for women participating in the Partial Hospitalization Program. The independent living area provides shared rooms and a common living area conveniently located on the south end of the second level of the main treatment facility. The rooms are brightly colored and have their own bathroom.

The common living area has an entertainment center, high-speed Internet access, a kitchen, and laundry facilities.

There is always a clinical professional staff member on call, and adolescent residential care workers are always available in the main treatment building.
Our Vision
The River Centre Clinic's primary purpose is to provide high quality, cost-effective, specialized care for patients with eating disorders in a state-of-the-art treatment environment. The levels of care deemed most cost-effective for the majority of these patients is Partial Hospitalization for adults and Residential Treatment for adolescents.

A secondary focus is to provide outpatient services for this patient population in order to facilitate transition to and from the above higher levels of care that are usually required for effective treatment of this population.

We take pride in working with persons with language, hearing, vision, and other special needs by involving other agencies and professionals to supplement and individualize the care that we provide at the River Centre Clinic.
