Recovery in Vancouver
Lifeline Connections Crisis Wellness Center is situated along Lower River Road in northwestern Vancouver within Clark County, Washington. The location is five miles east of Columbia River Gorge and six miles north of Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. Interstate 5 provides a direct route to downtown Vancouver. C-Tran Bus Routes 3 and 4 serve the area, and Vancouver Amtrak Station is 7 miles south.
Tailored Crisis Support and Stabilization
Crisis services foster empowerment and resilience against future crises. Services include individual counseling, life skill training, medication management, and connection to follow-up treatment. These services are delivered by skilled experts including licensed specialists, nurses, and case managers. Patients are expected to play an active role in treatment planning to ensure their goals shape the recovery process. This program lasts up to seven days.
Involuntary Stays for Your Safety
The ITA inpatient is another important service available here. This program has 16 beds and supports patients who are involuntarily held with mental health or substance use disorders. It typically serves individuals who pose an imminent danger to others or themselves. Referrals or requests for involuntary hold normally come from emergency departments, law enforcement and treatment providers. The patient’s family or friends and community members can also request detention.
A designated crisis responder (DCR) reviews each request. Initial detention may last up to five business days. Short-term commitment is about 14 business days while long term may range from 90 to 180 days. This is typically determined by the judge alongside the care team and is reviewed daily.

Accepted Insurance


Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
