Medication-Supported Addiction Recovery
St. Elizabeth Healthcare Edgewood Hospital offers personalized and trauma-informed substance use care for individuals and families struggling with unhealthy alcohol/drug dependency. Their staff are uniquely trained and grounded in clinical best practices that guarantee the best recovery outcomes. They also partner with agencies to break barriers that may impede your pathway to recovery. They primarily offer medication assisted treatment or MAT for opioid use disorder. This technique uses meds approved by the FDA alongside counseling to help you achieve lasting abstinence.
They may offer a prescription of Suboxone, Sublocade or Vivitrol depending on your personalized care. These meds curb cravings and eliminate painful withdrawal symptoms when taken as prescribed. You’ll then attend group and individual therapy to address underlying psychological issues and build strong coping skills to prevent relapse.
Peer support specialists can provide guidance, encouragement and firsthand insight from their own recovery experiences. They can link you to self-help groups or meetings like MAT groups to help you build strong support networks for lasting healing. Case managers provide community-based support and linkage. They can help you access transitional housing options, employment opportunities and much more. They also assist with budgeting, insurance and transportation.
The broader recovery services here also include tailored career planning and employment readiness training via a specialized program called Lift Up project. This program helps you acquire life skills and educational experience needed to enhance your employability through partnership with the Life Learning Center or KY Career Center. They also take care of challenges like legal problems that may hinder your employability. The goal is to help you achieve your full potential as a productive community member.
Support for Pregnant and Postpartum Women in Recovery
St. Elizabeth Healthcare also supports pregnant women and new mothers in recovery via the Baby Steps Program. Their trained nurses and peer experts can help you find suitable treatment via this program. This may include an inpatient program to begin MAT for those over 24 weeks pregnant. They can link you to 12-step meetings for pregnant and parenting women in MAT.
They can also help you establish or continue OB care and provide educational support focusing on the risk of withdrawal to newborns alongside neonatal abstinence syndrome. It’s all about supporting you and your family as you navigate childbirth and recovery. St. Elizabeth Healthcare Edgewood Hospital can also provide crisis intervention as part of its emergency care services for people experiencing mental health and substance use crises.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
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.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
Treatments
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
