About Loretto Hospital
Located just 15 minutes outside of downtown Chicago, Illinois is the Loretto hospital. This is a non-profit healthcare facility that’s committed to providing quality care to residents throughout the community.
Providing a welcoming environment to people from all walks of life, you’ll find compassionate, judgment free support and top quality healthcare services.
Support for Co-Occurring Needs
Their behavioral health department addresses struggles with mental health and they have dedicated programming if you’re working through a substance use disorder. They also have a Driving Under the Influence program if you’ve lost driving privileges or are involved in the legal system because of drug or alcohol use.
Services are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. They accept Medicaid and Medicare.
Supportive Addiction Recovery
Although this is a traditional medical facility, you’ll find that the staff and medical team here work cohesively in support of you to address your recovery goals. It feels like a partnership when you move through your treatment plan and you’ll be served in a therapeutic environment where you’ll learn recovery skills that will help you build positive habits.
As a traditional hospital facility, you can expect evidence based practices including medically supervised withdrawal and clinical care. Medication management might be weaved into your treatment to address symptoms, especially if those symptoms exist alongside a cooccuring mental health struggle.
Many people with chronic addiction struggles will start care under their residential rehabilitation program and step down to outpatient care located in the same building. With services under the same roof, it makes it more streamlined to receive care.
Mobile Crisis Unit
This hospital’s commitment to serving residents throughout the region is exemplified through their Mobile Crisis Unit. This unit will deploy at any time of day if you’re experiencing a crisis, are struggling with thoughts of suicide, or need something as simple as a mental health assessment to determine how to start the recovery process.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Clinical Services
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
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.
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.
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 (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 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.
