SYRACUSE  —  Syracuse Behavioral Healthcare (SBH) has completed a planned relocation of its detoxification and evaluation center in Syracuse.

The center, which had been located at 714 Hickory St., is now housed at 847 James St. in a facility SBH calls The Willows. The move boosts the evaluation center from 18 beds to 25.

Medical and counseling professionals staff the center. It provides support to individuals withdrawing from alcohol and other drugs. Stays there generally range from three days to 14 days.

The former evaluation center on Hickory Street is set to be renovated to hold four SBH supportive-living apartments. Construction started Tuesday, a day after the new evaluation center opened on James Street.

The shuffling comes after SBH opened a new outpatient mental health and substance-use disorders clinic at the Learbury Centre at 401 N. Salina St. in September. The nonprofit organization assisted more than 5,700 people in the last year.
