If you are being referred for admission to St. Christopher’s Inn by another agency such as a detoxification unit, an inpatient rehabilitation program, or a crisis center, please have a staff member at the referring agency complete the forms attached below. The more information provided the better to ensure a timely scheduled bed date if the client is deemed appropriate for treatment.
