About Hines VA Aurora CBOC
The Hines VA Aurora Community Based Outpatient Clinic is located in Aurora, Illinois. This clinic works with veterans and their families, providing them access to mental health services and supportive care for addiction struggles they might be working through.
Other services you’ll find here include primary care, an on site pharmacy and lab and pathology services as well.
As a smaller community outpatient clinic that operates under the greater VA Hines Healthcare System, you’ll find that receiving care here is quite accessible. You can walk in at any time into the clinic or call ahead to schedule an appointment. There are also transportation services to help you get to the clinic as well.
It’s also a close knit community overall and you’ll find that the staff and clinical team here are vested in building meaningful relationships with you throughout your course of care.
Supportive Addiction Recovery
This clinic is an incredibly supportive place to turn to if you know you’re struggling with drug or alcohol use but aren’t quite sure how to begin receiving care. You’ll first meet with a primary care provider here who will evaluate your health needs.
From there, you’ll be referred to the mental health care services within this location that can offer a diagnosis and create a treatment plan.
Their addiction recovery services are rooted in evidence-based practices and you’ll work with addiction counselors, therapists, and others to help you tackle the symptoms and eventually the root cause of your health struggles.
The VA Hines Healthcare network is comprehensive and if you need more robust services you can get connected to the Edward Hines Junior Hospital for more intensive care like inpatient treatment or medication support.
Micro Food Pantry
They also have what they call a micro food pantry here. This is a free resource for veterans and their families where they can come for nutritiously balanced non perishable foods. With regular drop offs from staff and community members, this can be a great resource if you’re a vet who’s experiencing food insecurity.
