About North Florida VA Health System – Palatka Community Based OP Clinic – Palatka
The Palatka VA Clinic serves to help veterans struggling from addiction and co occurring mental health conditions in the Palatka, Florida, area. They offer outpatient treatment but they can also provide referrals to inpatient treatment if necessary. Aside from substance misuse treatment, they offer primary care services, including family and internal medicine and plenty of other services.
If you suffer from chronic conditions, this clinic offers diabetes care, nutrition counseling and dietary help to promote better health. They also have lab and pathology services for those who need blood tests and clinical tests done.
One really unique service I found is their toxic exposure screenings, which help veterans who may have been exposed to anything toxic during their time in war.
To support your mental health the VA gives you options like psychiatry, psychology and social work services that can pinpoint any emotional or psychological issues. Many times these mental health issues can impact substance use.
If your issue has to do with smoking tobacco, they have a tobacco cessation program that is geared towards that addiction specifically. They also have some holistic treatment options like yoga, Ta Chi, and acupuncture. They even have massage therapy and mindfulness meditation practices. The goal is to help you break free from anything that’s holding you back from living the life you want.
