About Eskenazi Health Center North Arlington
Eskenazi Health Thomas & Arlene Grande Campus is an outpatient community clinic in Indianapolis, Indiana, that offers drug and alcohol addiction treatment. It replaced the North Arlington location in 2024. As a community health center it offers a lot of other services, such as primary care.
What’s especially unique is that this treatment center is operated by the Marion County Public Health Department in a way that makes addiction care accessible to everyone in the county. They have a sliding scale so you only pay what you can afford. They don’t turn away anyone based on their ability to pay so you can get help for your addiction at any income level.
What can you expect from the treatment here? It’s all outpatient and it uses a holistic treatment model called the recovery model. The recovery model is all about leaning into your strengths. It focuses on going beyond just surviving with your addiction. Instead, it aims to empower you to overcome your addiction and live a healthy and joy filled life. This can come through counseling and group therapy. Family therapy is an important part of the program too.
Among their amenities are hot food prep, a baby grand piano in the lobby, an art gallery, green space, and even an apple orchard.
Between the holistic model and the financial assistance this outpatient rehab can be a real lifesaver for people with addiction in Indianapolis.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Inpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatment
Mental Health
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Substance Abuse
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Clinical Services
Group Therapy
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
