About Reading Hospital

We have been designated by the PA Department of Human Services anOpioid Use Disorder Center of Excellence.

Centers of Excellence help ensure that people with opioid-related substance use disorder stay in treatment to receive follow-up care and are supported within their communities.

They work closely with Recovery Support Specialists to identify and provide support in developing a plan to resolve unmet needs such as housing, childcare, education/vocational skills, employment, transportation, clothing, food, health insurance, and recovery-friendly recreation and activities.
