Mission Statement
Our vision is to become the replicable model
of success in Africa and beyond for prevention,
intervention, rehabilitation and treatment of
drug and alcohol dependency and behavioural
health concerns.
In Ghana the demand for long-term recovery
services for all men and women, regardless of
ability to pay for services, is far greater than our
capacity. We also know that there are others in
adjoining communities and beyond who are
desperate for help.
Elements of Clinical Excellence
Peep-Ters Institute provides a full range of
treatment options to meet the needs of each
individual throughout the treatment process.
In order to offer the best possible treatment,
we have built a team of the best possible
professionals that have attained the highest
level of recognition in their respective fields.
Our multi- disciplinary team includes the
following treatment resources:
* Psychiatrists, Addictionologists
* Medical Doctors
* Clinical Psychologist
* Counsellors
* Nurses
* Pharmacists
* Activity Therapists
Admission Process
The team at Peep-Ters strives to make the referral
process as smooth and pleasant as possible for
our referral sources, families, and patients as they
transition into our treatment programs.
To refer directly to any of our programs, simply
contact our Intake team. We will pre-screen
each referral to determine the most appropriate
level of care. We will arrange for transportation
if needed. Treatment begins immediately upon
acceptance.
Providers can also help a client access
treatment by having them call our intake
team independently. Patients can walk in
or schedule a free confidential assessment
by one of our mental health professionals.
Levels of Treatment
Our goal is to provide treatment at the most
appropriate level depending on the specific
needs of the patient. The varying levels of
treatment for behavioural health or chemical
Dependency crisis are as follows:
* Inpatient Behavioural/Detoxification Services
* Intensive Outpatient Programs
* Aftercare Programs

Intensive Outpatient Services
We are equipped to serve all adults regardless

Programs can be utilized as a step down program
to transition back into the community or a
step-up program. With shorter hours and
flexible schedule, it allows patients to maintain
their daily life and complicated schedules and
still seek the treatment they need.
Aftercare Groups
Treatment is an on-going process and keeping
patients involved in treatment programs provides
them the greatest chance of success. We offer
aftercare groups to assist the recovery process.
These groups are free of charge and are offered
to all patients as they travel down the path to
reclaiming their lives. Peep-Ters also offers
weekly AA and NA groups.
