About Lake County Health Department Community Health Center : Northeast Satellite Clinic – Zion
Lake County Health Department and Community Health Center – Northeast Satellite is based in Zion, Illinois. The center provides behavioral health care and addiction treatment to adults aged 18+ of all ethnicities. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and private medical insurance, as well as offering Good Faith Estimates and discounts to those eligible.
From the get-go, I’m impressed by the range of services they offer. Their Addictions Treatment Program provides residential care which provides an intensive structure. This includes case management, individual, group, and family counseling, medical and psychiatric services, as well as peer support. Interpersonal and life skills, as well as expressive arts, psychoeducation, and more, are also included.
Helpfully, the website lists everything individuals might need to bring with them when choosing this program. Since beginning a recovery journey can be stressful, I think this is a great way to help give clients fewer things to worry about. The center also offers medication-assisted treatment, intensive outpatient, as well as continuing care and aftercare. I think this is a great way of offering continuity and a full support system for those who need it.
Previous clients are mixed about their experiences, with some mentioning difficulty contacting and arranging for prescription refills for medication-assisted treatment. It sounds like they may be understaffed, which could impact the quality of care.
