The High Risk department is dedicated to re-enforcing the importance of health and enabling our clients to take an active role in the responsibility for their own health. We acknowledge our role as a member of the treatment team in the fight against alcohol addiction and will work always to protect the lives of the client under our care.
The High Risk Department is a 16-bed unit to monitor people who have physical problems that need to be monitored. It is staffed by 24-hour Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) and is supervised by a Registered Nurse (RN). If a physical problem gets worse people are taken to Gallup Indian Medical Center (GIMC) or Rehoboth McKinley Christian Health Services (RMCHS).
Clients admitted from GIMC or other agencies, clients with BAC's (breath alcohol content) .300 or above, and clients with chronic medical conditions that are exacerbated by alcohol are placed in the medical bay for observation and care. High Risk is trained to deal with a variety of emergency situations, including seizures, and injuries resulting from assaults and falls (common cases of trauma here at NCI). The High Risk Department holds a custodial drug license allowing us to accept clients who are on any medication. A consultant pharmacist performs quarterly visits and reviews policies annually. If you have any questions for our High Risk dept. please call ext 113.

HIV testing: The clinical department also provides on-site HIV education, risk assessment, pre-test education and rapid HIV testing. NCI collaborates with Navajo AIDS Network (NAN) to provide many other HIV related services including education sessions, interventions and staff training to reduce stigma and to help prevent the spread of HIV among our high risk substance abusing population.
