What to Expect at Metamorphosis Centre for Change
A stay at Metamorphosis begins with a pre-admission conversation, followed by intake, your agreed treatment program and planning for continued support. This page explains the practical details that can help you and your loved ones prepare.
Our centre is at 725 Gibralter St, Delhi, Norfolk County, Ontario N4B 3C7. The 28,000-square-foot facility has 46 residential beds plus 8 dedicated detox beds, 54 beds in total. Capacity does not indicate current availability. Residential treatment, medical detox and online programs have different arrangements. Confirm the details for your selected program with admissions before travelling or making a payment.
1Step 1
Pre-Admission
Call 1‑833‑472‑7272 to speak with admissions. The team will discuss your circumstances, answer questions and explain the assessment needed to determine whether a program is suitable.
Before your place is confirmed, review the proposed program, duration, fees and inclusions. Once admission is arranged, make sure you have your arrival instructions, payment arrangements and any documents the team has requested.
Use the What to Bring checklist to prepare. Keep your health card, photo identification, benefits card if applicable, and current medication list accessible. Ask the team how to bring prescribed medicines and any medical equipment you use.
Confirm travel or pickup arrangements in advance. If you would like to see the centre first, request a visit using the Book A Tour button.
2Step 2
Intake and Settling In
On arrival, staff will guide you through paperwork, the relevant health assessment and orientation. Follow the current health screening instructions provided by admissions. Any testing, medical review and withdrawal management arrangements depend on the clinical assessment.
A family member, loved one or friend can usually stay until intake is complete if you want them there. The team will then help you settle into the detox area or your treatment room, according to your care plan.
Ask about room arrangements before admission. Private and semi-private rooms are subject to availability, and room assignment is confirmed during the admission process. You can view photos of the centre and accommodation before your stay.
If you are running late, call 705‑429‑3870, extension 1. Let the team know about any change to your arrival plans.
3Step 3
Taking Part in Your Program
Residential treatment provides a structured routine with daily groups, individual therapy and practical recovery work. Sessions may explore coping skills, emotional well-being, mindfulness, relationships and daily habits. Your timetable and appointments will reflect your agreed program.
Discuss family participation with your team. Involvement depends on your wishes, consent and the service arrangements. Loved ones can also explore the Family Support Program for their own support.
Wellness activities and gym access can be part of life at the centre, subject to your care plan and the current schedule. Ask what is available during your stay and whether any separately arranged services carry an additional fee.
If you are attending virtual outpatient care or the online stage of the Hybrid Program, confirm the session timetable, platform and joining instructions. Choose a private space where you can take part without being overheard.
4Step 4
Completing Treatment and Aftercare
Before your program ends, discuss how your support will continue. Confirm your next appointments, any prescription arrangements and who to contact if your needs change.
Aftercare for Life includes weekly online groups and a continuing recovery community. Continuation of Care describes weekly counsellor check-ins for the first two months after treatment, followed by regular contact through the remainder of the two-year period included in applicable purchased treatment packages. Ask which arrangements apply to your program.
Confirm group access, enrolment and any fees for additional individual therapy. Ongoing support does not mean a counsellor is immediately available at all hours. Agree on contact arrangements between sessions and where to seek urgent help when needed.
Day-to-Day Life at the Centre
Visits from Loved Ones
Visiting hours are Sundays from 1:15 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. Clients submit a visitor request, and the team lets the client know once it has been approved. Confirm approval before relatives or friends travel to the centre.
Phones, Laptops and Internet
You may bring a mobile phone and laptop. Phone access is normally provided twice a day for about 30 minutes, once in the morning and once in the evening. A laptop can remain with you. Internet access switches off at midnight, and security controls restrict access to certain websites.
Clothing and Personal Items
Bring comfortable everyday clothing and suitable workout clothing and shoes if you plan to use the gym. The packing checklist also covers toiletries and quiet fidget items. Where possible, bring unopened toiletry gels and liquids, and check any uncertain items with admissions.
Personal Care and Dietary Needs
Discuss dietary requirements, allergies, mobility needs and personal care needs before booking. The team needs this information to assess suitability and explain what can be accommodated.
Questions Before Your Stay
What happens on the first day of treatment?
You will complete intake paperwork, take part in the relevant health assessment and receive an introduction to the centre and your care arrangements. Staff will explain where you will stay and what happens next.
Can someone stay with me during intake?
A support person can usually stay until intake is finished, depending on your wishes. Confirm the arrangements with admissions before you arrive.
Can I bring my phone and laptop?
Yes. Phones are normally available for about 30 minutes twice daily. A laptop can remain with you. Internet access ends at midnight and includes website restrictions.
When can my family visit?
Visits are on Sundays from 1:15 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., following approval of the client’s visitor request. Ask the team to confirm the arrangements before visitors travel.
How long will I be in treatment?
The length depends on the program and agreed plan. Inpatient Residential, Hybrid and Virtual Outpatient programs offer 4, 6 or 8-week options, subject to availability and assessment. Residential options are 28, 42 or 56 days. Admissions confirms the residential and online portions of a Hybrid plan. Private medical detox has a 5-day minimum, with medically assessed extensions if necessary.
Will the photographs show the room I will receive?
Facility photos help you understand the setting, but they do not reserve a particular room. Confirm current availability and room assignment with admissions. The nature illustrations and banner on this page are stock images retained from the original site.
