They don't really provide you with what they offer. All they did was charge me a lot of money and sent me to many group meetings.
About Jackie Nitschke Center
Jackie Nitschke Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin, provides a full continuum of care for those seeking addiction treatment. A 28-day residential treatment program, intensive outpatient program (IOP), traditional outpatient programs, and aftercare support helps ensure there is the right treatment program and support for each person on their journey to recovery. Treatment is created with the belief that addiction is a disease not a choice, and an individual struggling with this disease needs holistic support for their physical, behavioral, spiritual and mental wellbeing.
Residential treatment typically lasts 28 days. Residents are medically monitored throughout their stay. Treatment delves into the trauma and experiences that contributed to addiction and the feelings associated with the struggle of addiction. Individuals learn coping skills, healing and how to plan for a healthy future.
A step down from residential treatment, but still offering comprehensive support, is the intensive outpatient program that includes therapy three times a week. The program offers flexibility of day or evening programs so individuals can meet their community and family responsibilities while engaged in treatment. There is also a standard outpatient program that offers weekly sessions and groups to help support long term success in recovery.
They also have a recovery housing program to help individuals set life goals and create a healthy sober life and community. They learn the power of giving back and serving others while developing the skills to help themselves.
Individual, group and family therapy are all part of treatment. There are family education and recovery programs to help support the long term goals and successful sober life of individuals and those they love.
The Jackie Nitschke Center accepts most insurance and is considered in network with most plans including Badger Care plans. Be sure to check with your personal health insurance provider to ensure you are covered and so you understand what options are available to you. There is also a legacy fund to offer financial assistance if you’re struggling with the cost of treatment.

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.
Intensive Outpatient
The Jackie Nitschke Center is pleased to offer an effective treatment program that doesn’t mean giving up the patient's job or disrupting your life. Their Intensive Outpatient program includes 18 group therapy sessions, held in the evenings. The IOP program includes: assessment, treatment, planning and goal setting, individual and family counseling, group counseling and 12 step meetings.
Aftercare
Rehab aftercare programs support clients' long-term recovery through highly customized wraparound care aligned with clients' evolving needs. Most have been sober for a period of weeks or longer and have completed intensive inpatient rehab but may be receiving outpatient care. Many clients also receive services after being discharged from formal treatment. Long-term care plans are typically developed in collaboration with the client's case manager and care team and may include peer coaching, relapse prevention, and related services.

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
The goal of drug rehab in Wisconsin is to address drug addiction as a complex issue that involves physical, mental, and relational aspects. During rehab, treatment focuses on each of these areas and gives you the tools you need to achieve and maintain sobriety.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
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
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy offers you a tailored approach to treat drug addiction. This focuses on your unique needs and offers you personalized support outside of a group setting. You begin to understand what triggers your addictive behavior and develop coping skills that can support your recovery.
Couples Therapy
During couples therapy, you will engage in activities that promote forgiveness, healthy communication, and understanding. You'll receive "homework" to practice these skills during the week between sessions. Couples therapy typically lasts around 12 weeks.
Family Therapy
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
