Sanibel House Opens for Residential Addiction Treatment

Sanibel House, a residential drug and alcohol treatment center for men, announced it is accepting new clients today. The sixteen (16) bed center will provide opioid detoxification, stabilization, and residential treatment services for men suffering from substance use disorders, and will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sanibel House is owned and operated by Addiction Recovery Care, based in Louisa, Kentucky.

“Sanibel House will expand access for substance abuse treatment in Ashland, Boyd County, and surrounding communities,” said Tim Robinson, CEO of Addiction Recovery Care.

Sanibel House is a Kentucky-licensed residential Alcohol or Other Drug Entity (AODE) and Behavioral Health Services Organization (BHSO) facility. Addiction Recovery Care currently operates five other residential substance abuse treatment facilities in Kentucky, two for men and three for women, and is nationally accredited for residential addiction treatment by CARF.

Sanibel House will provide clients with over twenty (20) hours of clinical programming weekly, with counseling provided by licensed counselors and peer support groups led by state-certified peer support specialists. State-certified case managers will work with each client to improve their recovery environment by addressing family, educational, housing, and vocational needs. Medical care will be provided at Sanibel House, with each client seeing a nurse practitioner weekly for their medical needs. Sanibel House’s medical staff is supervised by an American Board of Addiction Medicine certified physician.

Sanibel House is located on U.S. Highway 23 in Catlettsburg in an 1847 Italian antebellum home, on the historic Levi Hampton estate. The home has been updated in the style of a modern treatment center, while maintaining the custom elements of the home, which includes a total of eight fireplaces.

Addiction Recovery Care accepts Kentucky Medicaid plans, and interested potential clients with WellCare, Humana CareSource, Aetna Better Health for Kentucky, and Passport Health Plan coverage should call the intake team at (888) 351-1761.
