Welcome to the EHN Guardians Alumni Community

When you finish treatment, one of the most important things you can do to enjoy lasting recovery is to stay connected with your fellow alumni. This is where the EHN Guardians Alumni Community comes in. We’re proud to offer ongoing support, care, and some fun, for our alumni and their families.

Great facility!

I recently reached out to Edgewood to obtain records from a program I completed back in 2011. Jane handled my intake request quickly, walked me through the process, and connected me with Sabina who took genuine care of me from there. When I needed to expand my search timeline the team was understanding and accommodating without hesitation. Simple, professional, and kind from start to finish. Grateful for the care they showed me then, and again now.

Best experience of my life.
Four months and I didn't want to leave.
This place rocks!

Helped with working through my trauma I had which lead me to use. All the staff were friendly and very empathetic... No person was treated differently due to funding, everyone was equally treated fairly to their own needs

My wife attended Gateway about a year ago and Gateway completely changed her life. As a first responder family, we were a bit skeptical that anyone would be able to support individuals like us with the trauma that we have experienced. However, going to Gateway was the best thing that could have happened for her and she still continues to thrive everyday from the skills that she learned at Gateway. Gateway is not just trauma informed, they are trauma focused and that is the key difference in being able to help those who have experienced severe trauma in their line of work. Thank you to all the staff at Gateway, who have made a difference in my wife's life again, and the continued support that you provide her. You guys are the real heroes.
Response from the owner:Your feedback means so much to us, and we sincerely appreciate you taking the time to provide it. We recognize how hard it can be trust providers with the care of loved ones, so thank you for entrusting us.

EHN Nanaimo changed my life. From the day I checked in Oct 1 ,2025 till I left Dec 3,2025 my stay was like I was in heaven. The CTAP counsellors Kaitlyn PETERSON, Nick Abraham, Mohammed SHABI, Glen ROWE and clinical Director Joel HUGHES who I dealt with as a client , cared for me as if I was their family member.
The support staff Ashley, Rory, Cory, Lena, Shelby, Sara, Rob and Sara DUMAS, were all amazing, friendly and helpful during my interactions with them. The kitchen staff who feed us the awesome food were very professional, Dr. Gary RICHARDSON and the medical staff were always available to help my medical needs.
Basically everyone of the staff in EHN Nanaimo were very caring and kind.
I would blindly recommend Edgewood Nanaimo to anyone who is seeking help to over come their trauma and addictions.
Response from the owner:Your journey to recovery is incredibly important to us, Saif, and we are honored to have been a part of it. It's wonderful to hear that our program has helped you discover new insights and tools for lasting wellness. Knowing that we have made a positive impact on your life is the greatest reward we could ask for. Your success inspires us to continue providing compassionate care.
