Quapaw House expands services, sets open house
Quapaw House Inc. announced Monday it has expanded its operation in Hot Springs and will host an open house from 9-11 a.m. Thursday.
Quapaw House has purchased the former Community Counseling Office at 505 W. Grand Ave., which will house its corporate office, an outpatient area and medical clinic in the space, Executive Director Casey Bright said in a news release.
Bright will discuss the treatment of substance abuse and its impact on behavior and mental health at the open house. Quapaw House is a drug and alcohol addiction treatment facility.
Quapaw also operates a residential treatment facility at 812 Mountain Pine Road, which is the location of its “Promises” program.
“Quapaw has seen increased interest in its Promises program, with clients attending from throughout the state of Arkansas as well as Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania,” Bright said.
“The 30-day residential program offers individualized treatment plans to address addiction and avoid situations that may trigger relapse,” he said.
Quapaw House, which has served the area for 30 years, employs licensed professional counselors who are qualified to diagnose both substance abuse
and mental health issues. It is licensed by the Arkansas Department of Human Services’ Division of Behavioral Health Services, the release said. Its treatment programs are accredited through the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities International.
Promises is an evidenced-based program of Quapaw House specializing in the treatment of substance abuse disorders for males and females 18 years or older.
The 16-bed unit offers semiprivate rooms with a private bath. It is designed for residents to receive individualized care and a time of renewal over a 30-day treatment stay.
“Residents in the program receive an assessment by a professional health provider who specializes in substance abuse treatment. Based upon the assessment a personalized treatment plan is developed to restore a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Individual, group and family sessions are utilized to intervene in the cycle of drug abuse. Residents also receive introductions to self-help programs in the community, relapse prevention education, and stress reduction activities,” the release said.
