At SSM Health, we understand the pain and devastation of addiction, as well as the emotional and mental illnesses that may be associated with it. Our mission is to provide quality and compassionate care to adults struggling with alcohol and/or drug conditions and mental health issues.
SSM Health Treatment & Recovery offers individualized rehabilitation for those suffering from alcohol and drug dependencies, including the abuse of opiates. Our programs are designed to meet the increasing need for quality, medically monitored programs for those suffering from addictions.

Outpatient rehabilitation programs allow patients to work through addiction treatment without putting life on hold. Programs are ideal for people with a strong support system, a stable living situation and the internal motivation to change their lives.
- Outpatient treatment for individuals 18 years and older
- Treatment for chemical and alcohol dependency
- Physician oversight and masters level clinicians
- Medication-assisted treatment
Too often, individuals suffering from chemical and alcohol dependency do not receive the appropriate care because it would mean taking extended time away from their work or family.
This program offers individualized care that moves through a continuum, based on the needs of our patients.
If you or someone you love is struggling with the symptoms of withdrawal, our substance stabilization program offers medically-managed support.
