Admission Process
The staff at La Maison Arc-en-Ciel assists all potential clients in obtaining the necessary assessments in order to complete the admission process as quickly as possible.
The intake process begins with a self-referral or from a referral agent in collaboration with the client. The referral agent will forward the referral package to La Maison Arc-en-Ciel.
Once all the necessary information is received, a member of our clinical team will review the application within 2 working days. At that time, we will schedule a telephone interview with the applying client.
A client may self-refer for treatment by calling us at 705-369-4582 or 1-800-397-9430 or by email.
