WICHITA,
Kan., April 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bel Aire
Recovery Center (Bel Aire), a
45-bed facility providing substance use detox, residential
treatment, partial hospitalization, and outpatient services, is now
a fully contracted partner with Tricare, expanding their
award-winning Tactical Recovery treatment program for the military
and veteran community. Bel Aire is
owned by Summit BHC, a leading behavioral health and substance use
operator with 37 facilities across the U.S.
In Kansas and throughout the
country, there is an increasing need for credentialed and qualified
residential behavioral health facilities to treat the unique
clinical and cultural needs of the military community. By
understanding that military service's trauma and stressors can
contribute to drug and alcohol abuse, clinicians can ensure that
service members, their adult dependents, and veterans receive the
level of treatment and compassion they deserve.
"While defending our freedom, our military heroes experience
higher rates of addiction and psychological challenges than the
general public," said Katie Ross,
MSW, Summit's Senior Director of Veteran Services. "The COVID-19
pandemic only heightened these issues, which is why our mission is
to increase access and create a treatment environment that
recognizes and responds to the unique cultural experiences of the
military community."
"We are proud that Bel Aire has
received approval to provide much-needed support to our veterans
and their families in Kansas and
Oklahoma. We are committed to providing high-level substance
use care in a community that deserves our absolute best," said
Clayton Carr, CEO of Bel Aire
Recovery Center. "Our team is well equipped to meet the call
with exceptional clinical care, and we stand ready to serve."
Bel Aire also achieved
certification as a Veteran-Ready Healthcare Organization by
PsychArmor, nationally recognized training in military cultural
competency. PsychArmor provides relevant training to all staff,
ensuring a comprehensive residential support program for military,
veterans, and first responders. The track is designed to ensure
that patients receive customized and appropriate treatment in a
culturally competent and trauma-informed environment using
evidence-based practices proven to promote recovery in this unique
community. Bel Aire provides
treatment through addiction medicine physicians, psychiatrists,
therapists, and other clinical professionals. The facility has been
approved to accept Tricare and VA Health benefits through the
Community Care Network (CCN), allowing veterans to utilize
community partners outside the VA system.
