Eisenhower Army Medical Center Claimed

About Eisenhower Army Medical Center

The Eisenhower Army Medical Center is a military hospital in Augusta, Georgia. It’s a multi-departmental hospital so they have many different specialties and one of them is their mental health and behavioral health care department, which offers addiction treatment. They serve active duty service members of all branches including the Army and Navy as well as the Air Force and Marines and Coast Guard.

They have several levels of care here for addiction treatment and that includes their intensive inpatient treatment which can provide detox care and withdrawal management. During your detox, you’ll have around-the-clock medical care to manage your symptoms and keep you safe and healthy.

During your withdrawal, you’ll also start addressing the mental aspects of addiction through group therapy and individual therapy. Your program could include recreational therapy too and occupational therapy. They’ll also treat any co-occurring mental health disorders like PTSD and depression as well as traumatic brain injuries.

I think what’s most helpful about this facility is the fact that their care is catered to you as a service member. They understand the demands of your job and circumstances and they can treat your addiction in a way that is relevant to your life. Plus they can coordinate your addiction treatment with your other medical care and mental health care as well within the Army’s medical system.

It’s also important to note that they have a full continuum of care here for after your detox. They have residential treatment and varying levels of outpatient treatment like the Army Substance Abuse Program. While managing your withdrawal they can help you plan the next stages of your recovery.
