Alexandria VA Health Care System – Jennings CBOC

The Jennings Community Based Outpatient Clinic operates under the Alexandria VA Healthcare system. This clinic offers general healthcare services including primary and mental health care services. However, this is still a supportive place to turn to if you need a starting point to work on your behavioral health like drug or alcohol addiction.

Through the primary care services here, you can get referred to this clinic’s mental health program where your symptoms and struggles with substance use can also be addressed. Their services are offered in an outpatient setting, though they have health care support if you need more flexible access to care. They accept policies for most major insurance providers along with VA benefits.

This clinic is equipped to handle issues with substance use you may be experiencing, though its services are primarily dedicated to addressing mental health conditions.

Even still, you can turn to this clinic if you know you need treatment for your substance use but aren’t sure where to go. The integrated healthcare support here can help you receive evaluations and a diagnosis so that you can get connected to an appropriate treatment plan.

The Alexandria VA Healthcare System is a vast network and there are more robust addiction services you can receive in facilities like the Alexandria VA Medical Center. This might include detox and inpatient care. Once you step down into outpatient support, that’s where the support of the Jennings VA Clinic can be helpful.

There are other ways that this clinic can support you. For example, they have dedicated PTSD care for veterans who’ve experienced trauma, whether or not it’s related to their time in service. They also have women’s veteran care here that offers gender specific support. You also find a dedicated smoking and tobacco cessation program at this clinic as well.
