About Christian Hospital Recovery Center – St. Louis
The Christian Hospital Recovery Center is in St. Louis, Missouri, and treats mental health and substance use disorder for adults. They have assessment services, intensive outpatient programs and support groups.
The Center accepts insurance and has a financial assistance program for those without insurance. The hospital also has medical care that can complement addiction treatment, like wound care and HIV/Hep C testing and treatment.
The intensive outpatient program at the Center provides two group therapy sections and one educational section per three hour session. The group therapy allows you to address the root causes of substance use, share your experiences and hear the experiences of others.
Realizing that you’re not alone in your struggles can be very encouraging and help you move past shame and stigma. The education sections address life skills like communication skills, building healthy relationships, budgeting and other topics related to independent living.
You’ll also get training related to relapse prevention to help you maintain long term sobriety after treatment.
Another interesting part of the services at the Christian Hospital Recovery Center is the range of support groups. They have an AA group as well as support groups for specific mental illnesses.
I also noticed they have specific education classes and support groups for seniors. Class topics include aging resources, avoiding scams and understanding Medicare, Medicaid and long term care. These classes can help older St. Louis residents who are in recovery and want to continue making good choices to support their long term health and wellness, physically and financially.
