About Ivory Plains Recovery Center – Adair
Saint Gregory Retreat Center was an addiction and mental health treatment center for women in Adair, Iowa. The center was acquired by Summit BHC and renamed to Ivory Plains Recovery Center. The recovery center focuses on inpatient substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, withdrawal management, and relapse prevention. They accept insurance from many providers and they recently expanded to accept Iowa Molina Medicaid.
Many individuals avoid seeking treatment because they’re afraid that coming off substances will be painful. The detox program at this center is a medically monitored detox. Licensed nurses and medical staff under doctor supervision ensure you safely and comfortably detox so you’re ready to begin the next step of your journey to sobriety.
Adair is about an hour west of Des Moines and easily accessible from Interstate 80. The treatment center is only a half mile from Adair City Park which has picnic tables, restrooms, and RV campsites. The quaint downtown on Main Street is nearby too.
The recovery center offers a coed inpatient program that typically lasts about 30 days. The program may be customized to your needs. The treatment team focuses on building recovery resiliency on a strong foundation through the 12 step approach to treatment.
The focus is on integrated treatment of the spirit, mind, and body. They use the traditional steps that emphasize integrity, courage, willingness, honesty, and an open mind. Clients receive at least six hours of group programs per day in addition to individual therapy.
The partial hospitalization program (PHP) is an intensive program that many clients participate in after finishing inpatient hospitalization. It’s a good transition from structured 24-hour care to a less restrictive setting.
Day treatment is a good alternative for clients who can’t commit to an inpatient program because of school or work but still need a structured treatment program. Most of your treatment will be group therapy, but you’ll also have weekly individual meetings with a primary counselor.
