About Mercy Clinic Family Medicine – Springfield

Mercy Clinic Family Medicine offers comprehensive medical care for the whole family. The facility is located in Springfield, Missouri. They offer treatment for chronic and acute illnesses, sports exams, physicals and injury care including suturing and fracture management. They have a lab and x-ray services available on site. While this is not a substance use disorder (SUD) or behavioral health treatment facility, they have networked providers they can refer you to for SUD and mental health issues.

The facility accepts insurance. They offer Medicaid application assistance and offer uninsured patient discounts and financial assistance to eligible clients.

If you or a loved one needs treatment for an addiction or mental health challenge, the doctors at the clinic can refer you to a nearby treatment center, as little as three miles away. There are multiple treatment locations in Springfield and the surrounding cities.

Springfield is known as the birthplace of Route 66, and there are plenty of museums and galleries dedicated to the road to prove it. The medical clinic is only seven miles from the Commercial Street Historic District boasting two bakeries, a chocolate factory and a family pizzeria that’s been there for over 50 years.

One of the nice things about their network is the number of options available to you for treatment. You’ll receive customized care based on your unique needs. There are outpatient clinics and residential treatment centers where you’ll have access to the full range of behavioral health services and SUD treatments.

Outpatient psychiatry and psychological services include medication management, counseling, and SUD treatment. Clients may have access to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for treatment resistant depression.

Both the inpatient and outpatient programs take a whole person approach. This holistic approach means treatment focuses on physical as well as mental and behavioral health. Patients receive nutritional care for the body and spiritual care for the mind. The treatment network is vast, and you’ll have access to the care you need.

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).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

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.

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.

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.
