About Desert Winds Hospital
Desert Winds Hospital is a behavioral health center in Las Vegas, Nevada providing inpatient and detox services for adolescents and adults facing substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges. The facility treats teens ages 12 to 17 and adults 18 and older, with specialized programming that integrates psychiatric stabilization and family involvement. Desert Winds uses a harm-reduction model that meets patients where they are, offering nonjudgmental care focused on stabilization and sustainable recovery planning.
Adolescent Detox and Treatment
Desert Winds specializes in teen-focused detox and residential care, with programming designed specifically for adolescents ages 12 to 17. The facility combines behavioral health treatment with accredited on-site education, offering up to five to six hours of daily curriculum support through its Apex program so teens can continue their schooling during treatment.
Adolescent residential treatment follows a family-integrated approach, with constant communication and family therapy sessions built into the program. Admission is guided by the Child and Adolescent Service Intensity Instrument to ensure an appropriate level of care and the team works closely with families to address both substance use and underlying mental health concerns in a hospital-based setting.
Addressing Mental Health
Desert Winds provides integrated treatment for patients managing both substance use disorders and psychiatric conditions. The hospital environment supports medically supervised detox alongside psychiatric stabilization with care teams addressing the full spectrum of co-occurring needs for both adolescents and adults.
Desert Winds Hospital offers 24/7 assessments and admissions.
