About Livengrin Foundation – Addiction Treatment Centers and Detox Centers – Bensalem

Located in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, the Livengrin Foundation is an addiction treatment center that focuses on helping patients achieve a full recovery from substance use disorder, alcoholism, and gambling addictions. The facility seeks to both educate and empower patients as well as their families and friends who want to support them.

The facility offers medical detox to help with withdrawal symptoms, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and various general outpatient (OP) services. Detox patients are provided with an individualized assessment, a modern room with a private bathroom, a kitchenette stocked with what you’ll need, and designated smoking areas.

The facility’s PHP program offers four-hour sessions five days a week alongside individual therapy. IOP involves three hour sessions three times a week.

Livengrin also offers outpatient group sessions and weekly individual meetings to help patients build the skills they need to recover in full.

One unique aspect about this facility is that it offers specific help geared to patients who are struggling with compulsive gambling. It’s Livengrin’s philosophy that gambling can cause the same level of distress in a person’s life as drugs or alcohol. That’s why they’ve developed specific counseling and treatment to help patients cope with the impacts of gambling addiction.

Another great thing about this facility is that it has good reviews overall. One former patient said staying at the clinic was well worth their time and effort, while several former patients mentioned learning a lot through the educational programs. Another patient said his Livengrin counselor did everything in his power to make sure everything worked out for him.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-Step

12 step programs such as Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous are support group style programs for individuals who are experiencing alcohol or substance use disorder. At Evoke they use a holistic model of addiction care that includes using 12 step programs. These programs are an integral part of most relapse prevention plans and provide continued support and accountability that support sobriety.

24-Hour Clinical Care

24 hour clinical care provides close medical supervision for individuals in the early stages of recovery. Medical professionals monitor individuals around the clock for complications and provide immediate intervention when needed.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Intervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Sober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
