Who Are We?
Memphis Recovery Centers, Inc. is a not-for-profit agency that has provided
treatment for individuals dealing with chemical dependency since 1970.
Alcohol and drug treatment is and always has been our only business. Memphis Recovery Centers is one of the largest and most comprehensive providers
of alcohol and drug treatment services in the Mid-South. We are licensed by
the Tennessee Department of Health for both residential and outpatient
treatment for adults. All components of our Adult Services are
accredited by CARF, the Rehabilitation Accreditation Commission.
What Do We Offer?
MRC offers gender-specific treatment programs designed to respond to
individual needs of adult men and women. Individuals are assessed and
treated in the appropriate level of care with the flexibility to move up or
down in intensity of care based on personal needs and progress. The
treatment process consists of stabilization of physical needs, individual
therapy, group therapy, alcohol and drug education, family therapy, and an
introduction to community based support systems using Twelve-Step recovery
programs.
P r o g r a m s
DETOX /
STABILIZATION
This program provides 24 hour monitoring of individuals in need of a safe
physical and emotional withdrawal from drugs and alcohol. It is designed
for crisis intervention and holistic assessment in order to provide the
most effective care to suit the needs of the individual. A medical/clinical
treatment team will utilize a comprehensive treatment approach to integrate
the individual into the appropriate level of care upon completion of the
detox phase.
RESIDENTIAL
This program was developed with the individual, the family, and the
employer in mind. Length of stay will vary depending on the individual's
needs. Appropriate referrals for the Adult Residential program are those
men and women who would not be able to function at a less intensive level
of care because of their health, environmental, or legal situation. The
focus of this program is on restoring optimal level of functioning. Family
work is an important part of this restoration. This program is Twelve-Step
and behaviorally oriented.
All residential patients begin in Phase I (Awareness Phase). In this phase,
the patient becomes stabilized and evaluated. Phase II (Acceptance Phase)
is designed to assist the patient in gaining insight, in relapse
prevention, and in changing behaviors.
Our residential program can provide as many days as necessary to
rehabilitate and also to assist in meeting legal requirements of those
patients with a second or subsequent DUI.
EXTENDED
RESIDENTIAL
The Extended Residential program provides long term, highly structured,
individualized treatment for those with severe alcohol and drug dependency.
Life skills training, assertiveness training, and behavioral modification
are an integral part of this treatment program. GED and parenting classes
are also available as appropriate.
The Extended Residential program begins at Phase III (Commitment Phase.)
This phase supports socialization skills as the patient begins to develop
healthy relationships with other recovering individuals in the community.
There is continued emphasis on relapse prevention begun in the previous
phases. Phase IV (Direction Phase) concerns seeking and maintaining
employment, developing a realistic budget, and securing suitable living
arrangements. In the final phase (Fellowship Phase), the patient is living
away from the center, returning for Continuing Care, participating in
Twelve-Step meetings and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. According to
individualized needs, a patient may phase out at the completion of any
phase and/or transition to outpatient status.
DAY TREATMENT
MRC provides a day treatment program for adults not requiring twenty-four
hour supervision and who either exhibit an ability to function in an
outpatient environment or have completed a residential treatment component.
Day treatment requires a patient to participate for a minimum of five hours
and a maximum of eight hours daily. This is available seven days a week and
can be flexed to meet patient needs.
INTENSIVE
OUTPATIENT
Intensive Outpatient is targeted for persons who are physically, mentally,
and emotionally capable of functioning in their normal environment while
participating in chemical dependency treatment. The program is heavily focused
on relapse prevention and life skills that enhance the recovery process.
The length of stay is open ended and determined by individual needs. The
average stay is four to six weeks. Family work is incorporated into this
program one evening per week.
CONTINUING CARE
People who have completed Phase II or our intensive outpatient program may
use this once a week program to maintain therapeutic values gained in
treatment. Sixteen sessions are provided at no additional charge for MRC
patients. Additional sessions and/or drug screens can be provided at a
nominal fee.
