Addiction Services
Are
you or someone you love being negatively affected by alcohol or drug

alone. We have help for both the affected individual, as well as the
person being affected by another's addiction. Confidential counseling
is available by a professional, compassionate team where you are more

Treatment and Recovery
Samaritan
Medical Center's addiction services program provides quality and
compassionate care for the alcohol/chemically dependent client.
Treatment of alcohol/drug addictions is comprised of educational and
behavioral care. Recovery from addiction includes psychological,
emotional, and spiritual care. Samaritan believes in addressing all of
these aspects as part of its outpatient program.
A
specifically trained and professional staff make up the program's
treatment and recovery team. To help ensure quality care for its
clients, an excellent client-to-counselor ratio exists. Team members
assess and coordinate a goal-oriented individualized treatment plan for
each client.
Samaritan realizes discretion and privacy are
often concerns of potential clients. Any information obtained from
either a client or agency regarding a client is strictly confidential
and is protected by Federal Law. Samaritan understands and assures each
client's right to confidentiality.
The primary objective of treatment at this agency is to arrest the
disease of
chemical dependency or co-dependency and to restore the client to an
improved or acceptable level of functioning in all areas of their life.
Samaritan's
Treatment and Recovery Program is committed to providing effective and
comprehensive care to its clients. Therefore, innovative and varied
programming is offered including:
