About River Oaks Hospital – New Orleans
River Oaks Hospital sits on a 14 acre campus in New Orleans, Louisiana. This location provides addiction and dual diagnosis care to adults. There’s plenty to do and see in New Orleans, but if the city isn’t your thing you can take in the sights of the Mississippi River nearby.
This treatment center works with many major insurance plans, including Medicare.
The 12 step model used by this hospital adds structure and socialization to your recovery while guiding you through strengthening your sobriety. Another pillar of treatment here is activity therapies, where you and others in recovery participate in a variety of different leisure activities.
A common example of activity therapy is art groups. Such activities may seem unrelated to addiction substance use disorder recovery at first, but recreational and leisure activities can show you different ways to deal with stressors that could otherwise lead to relapse. Plus they strengthen your bond with your peers in recovery.
Social workers are personal advocates. They work with you during and outside of sessions to help you cope with sudden challenges and emergencies and introduce you to helpful community resources. A social worker also gauges your progress and needs during treatment and recovery so changes can be made to your treatment plan if needed. Social work is an important component of the addiction and dual diagnosis treatment at this hospital.
