Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

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.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Iowa is available in many formats. A variety of inpatient and outpatient options provide programs that are tailored to individual needs, making recovery possible for everyone.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid 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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

family iconFamily 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.

intervention iconGroup 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.

house-medical iconTrauma 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.

I met Dr. Garth Summers at the Mercy hospital in Mason City after my regular OBGYN doctor retired. I had mentioned to my previous OBGYN doctor that I was interested in getting my tubes tied and he asked me many questions about if I was sure that s what I wanted (which they have to do) but then continued to ask me about what my future husband would want. I was very upset at the insinuation that my choice of having my tubes tied was in the hands of my future husband and left the office. Having given up on the idea, I decided to revisit the OBGYN and get birth control when I was told that I would be seeing someone else as the previous doctor had retired. When I got there, I met Dr. Garth Summers and decided to test the waters by bringing up the topic of the tubal with him. He received the question very well and after asking me my reasonings (like I said, they have to ask), he gave me all the paperwork to fill out and was completely onboard with the idea. He mentioned that he would be transferring to the Mahaska Hospital in Oskaloosa and would be able to go through with the surgery there. I was more than happy to drive the 2.5 hours as he was, and is, the most understanding and kind doctor I have ever met. He explained what would happen in the surgery very well in terms that I would understand and made me extremely comfortable during the whole process. As I was being put under for the surgery, he played my favorite music and held my hand until I was asleep. To this day, he will forever hold a place in my heart as the best doctor I ve ever had the pleasure to meet. I will recommend him to anyone in search of a good (amazing) and reliable OBGYN doctor. Thank you so much Dr. Garth Summers!!

I've been to Mahaska Health many times recently because I have cancer. I've needed blood transfusions, treatment infusions, many labs, injections and a visit to the ER. I'm probably there about once a week. Everyone that I've encountered has been so kind and caring from check-in to treatment. They do their best to minimize my encounters and make it go smoothly. I don't think I've ever had a lab technician that did a better job of drawing blood. I hardly feel it. The nurses in the infusion center go above and beyond in comfort and care. They've wiped away my tears, brought me cookies and hunted for just the right pillow to support the IV line. My oncologist comes down from Des Moines so many things I can take care of in Oskaloosa rather than traveling to DM. Over the past couple of years, I've experienced the hospital through caring for my parents and was also impressed with their care.
