About Health Care Alliance NA

Health Care Alliance North America (HCANA) started with Oasis Recovery Center in Asheville, NC. Our founders wanted to create an addiction treatment center that treated clients as individuals, casting aside the impersonal and apathetic approaches used by other providers, including the recovery centers they attended themselves. Four years later, as Oasis Recovery was established as a leader in the recovery community, our founders knew the next step was to increase our services to reach people who needed urgent help across all levels of care, and HCANA was born.

Since 2018, HCANA has opened a dedicated detox facility in Asheville near Mission Hospital, a 24/7 residential treatment center in Knoxville, TN, and a holistic and adventure‑based treatment center in Ocoee, TN. As we expand, we are dedicated to ensuring that our services maintain the same quality and individualized care across all our centers. Every aspect of treatment is intentional, from our clinicians customizing treatment plans and empathizing with clients to the joyful conversations and snacks our transportation providers gladly offer as they take clients to and from the centers.
