Lincoln Recovery – Springfield Illinois Rehab

Lincoln Recovery is an addiction treatment facility in rural Raymond, Illinois, with private rooms with bathrooms, the focus is to help every person who walks through the doors for treatments feel that they are an individual and are going to find a recovery program that meets their needs.

We offer a full range of treatment models and programs, while working to include proven methods such as group therapies, and individual sessions in each of our recovery plans.

In addition to individualized treatment programs, clients can enjoy 12 gorgeous acres of land for plenty of time outdoors, nutritious chef-prepared meals, and recreational activities for almost any preference.

Lincoln Recovery has doctors and medical staff on-site who see patients on a one-on-one basis. This is especially important during the detox phase of recovery, as each client needs to be monitored to ensure they are as comfortable as possible.

Group facilitators oversee group therapy sessions, and Therapists offer individual therapy sessions to clients. Each patient is also assigned a case manager, who will work with them to shape their recovery plan, during their stay at Lincoln, as well as help build aftercare programs that will offer the best opportunity for long-term recovery success.

A recovery advocate also works to bridge the gap between patients and staff, to facilitate communication and ensure patients’ needs and concerns are addressed.

All staffers receive continuing education from Relias on a monthly and annual basis to better help patients recover from substance use disorder.

Besides group and one-on-one therapies, patients will have plenty of options to recover and refresh. Chefs prepare three nutritious and delicious meals a day, as well as snacks.

When a client needs quiet time they can settle in by the large stone fireplace or retreat to the meditation room. Or, since Lincoln is an electronics friendly facility, time spent communicating with loved ones might be a preferred leisure time activity.

Patients may gather in lounging areas or by the indoor pool to socialize or to swim. The gaming area offers the opportunity to relax with others to play a game of pool or ping-pong. Group activities include Sunday hikes, bowling, movies, kickball, volleyball, and more.

When patients arrive, they receive an initial assessment. Intake coordinators explain what to expect in the days and weeks to come. A nurse and a detox clinician perform medical and psychological evaluations. This helps compile a complete and up-to-date picture of the patient’s health, information which is used to shape a treatment plan.

Detoxification is the first stage of recovery, where the patient weans off drugs or alcohol. Because it can be one of the most challenging chapters of a person’s rehabilitation, Lincoln Recovery has two four-bed rooms where patients can detox in comfort and safety. Specialists provide quick, personalized care throughout the process, minimizing the more uncomfortable stages of withdrawal, like vomiting and nausea.

Goals of all levels of treatment programs vary based on such factors as the treatment population, program comprehensiveness, and the program’s philosophy. Lincoln Recovery develops a client’s treatment plan based on a treatment team structure with client involvement and perspective that allows the patient to act as an equal partner. The client-centered approach considers the client’s social, physical, culture, spiritual, environmental, medical and psychological needs.

Although programs differ, all programs attempt to address the following general goals:

• To achieve abstinence
• To foster behavioral changes that support abstinence and a new lifestyle
• To facilitate active participation in community-based support systems (e.g., 12-Step fellowship)
• To assist clients in identifying and addressing a wide range of psychosocial problems (e.g., housing, employment, adherence to probation requirements)
• To assist clients in developing a positive support network
• To improve clients’ problem-solving skills and coping strategies

If insurance covers it and the clients feel they need it, they can extend rehab past 90 days for up to eight additional weeks.

Lincoln Recovery will provide support groups on-campus and clients may have to opportunity to participate in groups in the community.

Groups on-campus include, but not limited to NA, AA, Veterans, Celebrate Recovery, LGBTQ+, and Smart Recovery. These groups are typically for support and led by those in recovery.

Patients will be afforded the opportunity to participate in day trips in the local community and the surrounding St. Louis Metropolitan area during their stay.

Lincoln Recovery’s staffers will pick up patients from anywhere within a two-hour radius, which includes Lambert ernational Airport, which is less than an hour away. Once patients arrive, they’ll be greeted by friendly faces, who will take a complete medical history and give a tour.

Clients receive thorough medical and mental health examinations, so a unique treatment plan can be prescribed for their needs. They may undergo detox, and once they’ve completed that phase, they’ll move into their room and begin a schedule that includes talk therapy and counseling designed to heal both the mind and the body.

Even though Lincoln Recovery is a treatment facility, it also serves as a temporary home for clients. To further facilitate healing, the clinic feels more like a hotel, where patients can let go of day-to-day stresses and focus on recovery, take part in skill-building exercises, and dine on freshly prepared meals three times a day.

The pool is the perfect place to take a dip. The grounds boast a pond stocked with trout. Guests are allowed (with permission) on Sundays, and group outings are regularly scheduled.

Mealtimes are set. Breakfast is 7:30–8:30 am, lunch is noon–1:00 pm, and dinner is from 5:00–6:00 pm. The menu is typically prepared on a four-week basis. If the client has special needs or doesn’t like the meal for the day, other arrangements can be made.

Illinois has four seasons—sometimes all four in the course of a day. Out-of-town visitors are advised to pack for anything, just in case. That means the potential for snow squalls in July but also July weather in January. Or vice-versa.

It’s a good idea to pack essentials, but Lincoln Recovery can provide travel-size toiletries like soaps, toothpaste, and deodorant, as needed. In the warmer seasons, bring a swimsuit for pool time.

There are shops nearby, too, for patients who have permission to leave after their therapies for the day. Patients may wish to bring their laptops or cell phones to keep in touch. Notebooks are a good idea, too, as they’re great for journaling, which can be a helpful component of therapy.
