About Recovery Connections of Maine

Recovery Connections of Maine is an addiction recovery center that wants to help men and women overcome substance abuse in Lewiston, Maine. The center understands that most suffer in silence, and it wants to change this by offering comprehensive substance abuse services through its intensive outpatient program and residential treatment.

One encouraging part of the outpatient and residential treatment programs is that the center believes in unconditional positive regard. This means all patients are treated equally regardless of unpleasant histories or criminal charges.

The residential treatment program only treats men and the duration of the program is six months. The facility has space for 20 people and during your time, you will undergo individual mental health and substance abuse counseling alongside daily group meetings, psychiatric services, and medication-assisted treatment if needed.

The residential treatment program is intensive and has three phases: stabilization, preparing an individual for transitioning to vocational and life skills training and helping with integration into the community.

You can expect the Matrix Model of treatment with the intensive outpatient program. You will receive treatment up to three hours a day, five days a week. The program will give you access to alternative expression, art, and bio-psycho educational lectures. You will also undergo weekly check-ins, which many patients like because they help ensure their recovery needs are met.

The outpatient program at this center strives to offer a supportive, caring, and accountable environment that fosters long term sobriety and assists individuals with understanding their lives and why living substance free is best.

The Travis house in Lewiston plays favoritism and is hypocritical. One member of the house leaves for days after having been there only for a month and came back dirty and he's allowed back yet another leaves for an hour after being there for two months and is completely clean and is ejected. What kind of place is that?

Accepted Insurance

Recovery Connections of Maine works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

MaineCare

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

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.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) enable clients to remain in or return to their community while receiving high-level treatment. Most rehabs offering intensive outpatient treatment require clients to commit to a minimum of nine therapeutic hours per week, though clients who need more robust care often receive up to 20 hours of service weekly. Treatment modalities vary, but generally include psychotherapy, recovery education, evidence-based holistic therapies, and medication assisted treatment (MAT) for alcohol and/or opioid addiction.
aftercare iconAftercare
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
The best time for a drug intervention in Maine is when you think a loved one needs help with substance use and they are not seeking it. A drug intervention is an organized effort to confront them and share how their behavior has affected those around them. Intervention services can provide an intervention specialist to walk you through this process.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Medical detox is the process of removing addictive substances from your body while under medical supervision. Quitting alcohol and drugs on your own can cause uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects. In a medically supervised detox, licensed medical professionals monitor you 24/7 to help keep you as safe and comfortable as possible. The process is highly individualized to fit your specific needs, but the medical detox generally takes 5-7 days.
