55-Bed Residential Drug Treatment Facility to open in Maumee

Midwest and Ohio Detox Centers open a 30-day residential treatment center to help the transition from detox to outpatient programs

 

Maumee, OH, July 20, 2020 — Midwest Detox Center and Ohio Detox Center–both located in Maumee, OH–will expand substance use treatment services to include a 30-day residential program. The much-needed new program will help clients transition from inpatient detox to outpatient treatment. It will operate from 1760 Manley Road in Maumee, a 20,000 square-foot facility with 55 beds.

The program will accept both commercial and Medicaid insurances. It is the first dedicated American Society of Addiction Medicine level 3.5 accredited facility in the Midwest Recovery Center family.

Midwest Recovery Center CEO Matt Bell believes that extending a client’s treatment stay gives them a better chance at staying sober long term.

“Stepping down from detox straight to sober living can certainly work, but sometimes clients aren’t ready for that much freedom. Sometimes they are still experiencing physical withdrawal symptoms,” he said.  “The longer someone stays in treatment, the better chances they will have long term. That means more clinical therapy, medication stabilization, peer support, and overall supervision. It’s a safe bubble to take advantage of before you enter back into the world.”

Bell also said the residential program will help those with Substance Use Disorders who do not need detox, but could use additional support before entering an outpatient program.

The new facility, which is tentatively slated to open in August, has been completely made over. It includes flat screen televisions in every room, a movie theater, pinball machines and arcade games, a work out area, and a spacious deck overlooking the creek.

Services offered include but are not limited to individual therapy, group therapy, case management, physical therapy, chiropractic services, yoga, meditation, entertainment activities on the weekends, and family therapy.

Midwest Detox Center and Ohio Detox Center are part of TruHealing Centers, a subsidiary of Amatus Health. As a nationally accredited behavioral healthcare system, TruHealing Centers offers treatment for addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders in facilities across the country.

As we continue to grow Amatus Health, the need to stay competitive and differentiate ourselves in unique ways is crucial. Building creative approaches to reach more people will take our company to new heights. This is why I am pleased to announce that we are officially rebranding. Our new national name, TruHealing Addiction & Mental Health Treatment, will eventually replace Amatus Recovery Centers.

You may be asking, “Why are we doing this?” This new name will give us national uniformity and help brand ourselves as a whole, which will be done in phases. You will still see our existing facility names co-branded with TruHealing for the time being.

Healing is what we do. Everyone who comes through our doors is in a moment of profound struggle in their lives. We support them through a life-changing process of healing and recovery, and they leave our facilities changed. This new name is a representation of that process. As mentioned above, it also allows us to have a national brand, which will make us a recognizable name in the addiction and mental health field.

In summation, these changes present an excellent opportunity for our organization to develop our mission, vision, and purpose. I look forward to prosperous growth as we head in a new and positive direction.

Sincerely,

Mark Signature

Passions & interests: The greatest passion of mine is being able to dig into the work with men in early recovery. There is nothing better than witnessing and being a part of the change. My journey in long-term recovery has taught me to value the little things in life that I am now able to do. I love to do anything that allows me to be present with my wife, family, and friends. My wife and I enjoy traveling, trying new foods, and taking long motorcycle rides with our friends. If I am not on the road working or with my wife, I am studying or playing softball.

 

The best part of my job is being able to show up for my team and clients; they all mean the world to me. I get to brainstorm and strategize with tons of different personalities. A lot of the team does not know, but I love learning from them. If I am not learning something about our industry or workplace, I am certainly learning how to effectively collaborate with different types of individuals.

 

Together, we can change the narrative and be a part of the solution to better treat those trapped in the problem.
