Basically, they are a methadone clinic that their whole staff is more than excellent...they except most all insurances as far as I know .... the whole staff is great and they work with all their clients On a one-to-one basis helping them with a variety of services depending on whatever the person wants help or assistance with as far as trouble with cps, family services, wic, ebt, therapy, and a whole handful of other things to help someone that's just starting to get the help they want and need while they are trying to stay clean at the same time of improving whatever they can in their lives...For any opiate addicts or heroin junkies bet see this, all you have to do is show up every day and they will give you what you need to to be able to go without and not freak out... Someone can actually quit what they are addicted to and rest and be ok while they are not using...... Put those thoughts of being scared to death of knowing the feeling of withdrawing and be able to deal with it now

The employees are compassionate and really care about you here! This place has provided me stability in my life.

I was nervous at first but realized how many wonderful clients there was. everyone was so kind even though our circumstances were what they were. We all became close as we were being cared for and introduced to recovery and safety from drugs and alcohol and the outside conditions we were experiencing.

Recovery Works provides withdrawal management and residential care to adults battling substance use disorders and dual diagnosis. Located in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, near the Ohio River, this CARF accredited facility accepts Medicaid and Medicare. Flexible payment plans are also available. A Holistic Continuum of Care One thing I like about them is
Pinnacle's Recovery Works in Elizabethtown is a great 3.7- and 3.5-level residential treatment center. They have a fantastic receptionist named Lee Anne who is super friendly and who goes out of her way to help clients. I also want to make a shout-out to their friendly phlebotomist "Sunshine" who is always smiling, their friendly transportation drivers, their wonderful kitchen crew, and their peer support staff! My only complaints are being given a 50mg prescription pill when my prescription was actually for 12.5mg daily, a dangerous mistake by one of their nurses (some of whom are traveling nurses from locations such as Indiana), and receiving a potentially false diagnosis from blood work that had to be repeated and still ended with conflicting medical interpretations. The nurse practitioner Tammy, for example, said no, but one of the nurses, Emma, said yes. Do I have it, or don't I?! This facility would get a perfect score if some of its medical team were competent and ethical. Otherwise, an excellent place!!!
