About Lafayette House – Joplin
Lafayette House is an alcohol and drug rehab facility in Joplin, Missouri. They serve women and their children with holistic rehabilitation services and provide a safe place for victims of domestic and sexual violence to stay. They are a private residential facility with modern amenities.
Lafayette House strives to make itself available and open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They provide child care onsite for clients with children.
Inpatient treatment is the highest level of care. The residential program is available to clients whose addictions have caused significant instability in their lives or who are coming from an unsafe living situation and need a safe place to receive treatment. Clients reside at the facility for the length of the program and are closely monitored by staff for the safety of everyone on site.
Residents help develop their course of treatment alongside their care team, with options including comprehensive counseling, family therapy, education opportunities, case management, recovery services, vocational training, and transitional housing. The goal of treatment is to help clients replace addictive behaviors with healthy coping mechanisms, develop life skills, and return to reintegrate into their daily lives.
Some substances, such as opioids, are known to have stronger withdrawal symptoms than others. Staff may administer medication to help clients cope with these problematic cravings and avoid relapse. All drugs used for MAT are FDA approved for such purposes, and staff closely watch clients for any adverse effects and to make adjustments.
Outpatient treatment is the next level of care after inpatient treatment. Outpatient care allows clients to visit the facility on a regular treatment schedule rather than living on site so they can continue to work their jobs and live at home. Clients sometimes use it as a transitional step following the completion of inpatient care, but clients may enter it independently, too.
Outpatient programs are also made available for those in certain court programs.
