<p><strong>ABOUT SYCAMORE SPRINGS</strong></p> <p>In a private, park-like campus in Lafayette, Ind., an hour northwest from Indianapolis, Sycamore Springs <strong>treats adults and teens</strong> struggling with addiction and <a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/dual-diagnosis-and-co-occurring-conditions/" target="_blank">co-occurring mental health disorders</a>. From its recently-built, 48-bed facility, Sycamore Springs offers <strong>inpatient, a partial hospitalization program (PHP), and intensive outpatient program (IOP)</strong>. Detox is not available here.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>All clients follow an individualized treatment plan beginning with a series of <strong>comprehensive assessments</strong> that factors in their psychological, behavioral, medical, and vocational needs. Length of treatment is set by a client and their assigned treatment staff.</p> <p>Adults and teens in need of structured inpatient care are supported by a <strong>24-hour nursing staff</strong>. A typical day for inpatients features individual and group therapy sessions rooted in <strong>cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)</strong>, e-learning, medication management, education on fitness and nutrition, and alternative and expressive therapies involving <strong>art, music, pets, yoga</strong>, and other forms of recreation. The center also includes <strong>families</strong> in the recovery process through conferences, therapy, and lunches.</p> <p>Sycamore Springs runs two outpatient tracks, PHP and IOP, for individuals seeking structured care while accommodating their ongoing schedules. These evidence-based programs incorporate the nationally-reputed Hazelden program, <strong>12-step support groups</strong>, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Sycamore Springs also provides <strong>alumni support</strong> for all program graduates.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The multidisciplinary treatment team consists of physicians, registered nurses, patient care assistants, social workers, and recreational therapists.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Sycamore Springs houses clients in <strong>shared bedrooms with a private bathroom</strong>. The private, park-like campus has a total of <strong>48 beds</strong>. Outside of therapy, residents are encouraged to exercise, walk around the nearby lake, or rest in the lounge.</p> <p>A <strong>full-service cafeteria</strong> provides clients with three meals and snacks throughout the day. To limit distraction during treatment, phone calls are made only at designated times, and <strong>hour-long family visits</strong> are scheduled for nights and weekends.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p><strong>Feedback provided by the five program alumni surveyed by Rehabs.com to date was positive</strong>. By and large, alumni found the staff friendly and helpful, the facility itself clean, well-maintained, and co-occurring treatment effective.</p> <blockquote> <p>Overall cleanliness and upkeep: 4/5<br /> Staff’s level of training and experience: 4/5<br /> Level of family participation: 4/5<br /> Co-occurring treatment: 4/5</p> </blockquote> <p>“Overall this was actually a pretty decent place,” one alum wrote. “One of the better ones i have been to.” All five indicated that they’d recommended the program to others. However, some felt the facility could benefit from more physical activities.</p> <p><strong>In addition, Sycamore Springs has an average rating of 3.6 out of five stars from 77 Google reviewers</strong>.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> Feedback was very mixed, as some reviewers expressed concern over how staff treated them, while others reported life-changing experiences and celebrated the therapists as caring and professional. “I must say this facility saved my life from a deep dark alcohol hole I was in,” Mark, a representative positive reviewer, wrote. </p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The single loved one polled by Rehabs.com to date gave ratings of three stars for these metrics, including the level of family participation, but claimed that the facility was not “lgbt friendly.”</p> <p><strong>WHAT STAFF SAY</strong></p> <p>While Rehabs.com has yet to receive any reviews from this facility’s alumni, 10 staff members gave their employer 3.8 out of five stars.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> Staff collectively described their work experiences as rewarding yet stressful and their coworkers as supportive and hardworking.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Sycamore Springs accepts private pay and is in-network with an extensive list of private insurance plans. The six Rehabs.com survey respondents felt the facility was moderately affordable.</p> <blockquote> <p>Affordability of treatment: 3.17/5</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>CONCLUSION</strong></p> <p>A <a href="https://www.jconline.com/story/news/local/2018/01/19/addiction-treatment-services-outpaced-demand-tippecanoe-co/1047783001/" target="_blank">recent report</a> highlighted the area’s rising demand for inpatient services as well as its shortage of qualified addiction treatment professionals.
