Veteran Health Indiana – Martinsville VA Clinic

Martinsville VA Clinic provides community integrated healthcare services to promote the general wellbeing of veterans and their families. They offer primary care, mental health support and telehealth care which is the one I like most. Most veterans who received services in this clinic only have beautiful things to say about the clinic. You’ll find Martinsville VA Clinic in Martinsville, Indiana.

Martinsville is a small city in Morgan County accessible via State Road 37. State Road 39 runs through Martinsville and Mooresville. Public transportation seems kind of limited in the area. Morgan County Connect provides dial-a-ride services.

You can also check out the Volunteer Transportation Network, which is often called DAV. They serve veterans and can help get you to the clinic. Restaurants like Indy’s Family Restaurant and Los Reyes Mexican Cuisine are within walking distance if you need a bite. There are also many natural spots nearby where you can cool as well after a long day of therapy. This includes Martinsville City Park, Morgan-Monroe State Forest and McCormick’s Creek State Park. These are all within a short distance from the clinic.

Self help groups are close to the clinic. These include Celebrate Recovery at First Baptist Church and NA meetings at Morgan County Recovery. You can build your support network when recovering from substance use.

Outpatient substance therapy is part of the broader behavioral health service available in their mental health department. They can help if you’re dealing with dually diagnosed conditions. When you visit this clinic you’ll undergo clinical evaluation. This helps their team create a personalized care plan to guide the treatment support they’ll provide.

You can also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid and alcoholism. The technique uses FDA-approved meds to help you manage withdrawal symptoms and curb cravings. Counseling is provided alongside the meds to better tackle the psychological symptoms.

I like when a clinic takes extra steps to accept Medicare, Medicaid, and TRICARE. This makes their services available to the indigent and underserved members of the veteran community.

The facility also has home telehealth services. You can attend sessions virtually using a secured video conferencing platform. You can book appointments and get medical check ups without leaving home. This makes access to life saving care convenient. You won’t have to worry about transportation and the cost.

Martinsville VA Clinic offers social support services that can help your lasting sobriety. They can help you find housing if you’re homeless or jobs if you’re unemployed or financial aid. They offer home health care, legal assistance, and transportation.
