About Caron Bermuda

Caron Bermuda
In September 2005, Caron Treatment Centers (Caron US) partnered with Fair Havens Christian Care Association of Bermuda (Fair Havens) to determine the need for additional quality addiction treatment services in Bermuda. Their findings showed that local assessments followed by overseas treatment have generated good initial outcomes over the years but only for those patients fortunate enough to be able to access them. Additionally, upon return to the island, those who received overseas treatment had access to only limited continuing care treatment programmes.

As a result, Caron Bermuda was formed from an affiliation between Caron US and Fair Havens. Caron Bermuda will provide direct access to off-island residential treatment as well as on-island non-residential continuing care and group programmes at its Smiths Parish facility. It is projected that the programmes offered at Caron Bermuda will help up to 200 individuals and families within the first year of operation.
