Baton Rouge Area (Alcohol and Drug Center Inc) is a dedicated substance abuse treatment facility serving individuals in Baton Rouge, LA and surrounding communities who are struggling with alcohol and drug addiction. Located at 1819 Florida Boulevard in Baton Rouge, LA 70802, this center provides evidence-based detoxification and residential treatment programs designed to help patients begin their recovery journey in a supportive environment. The facility is committed to making treatment accessible to all individuals, including those who are deaf or hard of hearing through ASL and other accommodations.
Baton Rouge Area offers specialized substance abuse treatment services focused on two primary levels of care: detoxification and residential short-term treatment. The detoxification program helps patients safely manage withdrawal symptoms under medical supervision, addressing both the physical and psychological aspects of early recovery. The residential short-term treatment program, lasting 30 days or less, provides intensive, structured care in a live-in setting where patients receive 24-hour support from clinical staff. This model allows individuals to focus entirely on their recovery while building essential coping skills and connecting with peers on similar journeys. Together, these programs create a comprehensive foundation for sustained sobriety and long-term wellness.
Baton Rouge Area works with patients to address payment and insurance concerns, ensuring that financial considerations do not prevent access to needed treatment. If you have health insurance, the center can help verify your coverage and explain your benefits. Under the Mental Health Parity Act, most insurance plans are required to provide equal coverage for mental health and substance abuse treatment as they do for other medical conditions, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
