About us
The Manning Family Recovery Center (MFRC) at the Manning
Regional Healthcare Center was established in December 1982.
The Recovery Center’s mission is to provide safe, efficient,
and effective chemical dependency treatment to chemically
dependent individuals and their families across Iowa and
Nebraska. This treatment is provided by a caring,
empathetic staff who believes your life can change with
treatment – and we can help. Over the years the
Recovery Center’s capability to provide service has grown to
include detox, residential, and outpatient chemical
dependency treatment, co-dependency treatment, aftercare,
outreach services, Employee Assistance Programming, and OWI
evaluation/education.
What is
Chemical Dependency?
The staff at the MFRC believe that chemical dependency is a
chronic, progressive, and incurable disease, characterized
by the loss of control over the use of alcohol, prescription
and illegally obtained drugs. It is a disease which,
in most cases, affects family members and friends, as well
as the chemical user.
Therefore, the MFRC has designed a treatment process which
allows the chemically dependent person and family members to
learn how to live their lives without the use or influence
of chemicals.
Each level of care carries its own level of intensity and
structure. (Detox, Residential, Intensive Outpatient,
Extended Outpatient, Aftercare)
Treatment Services
The MFRC 13 bed co-ed multi-level treatment center seldom
has a waiting list for admissions. The Center has a
“live” on-call counselor available for concerns, crisis, and
information available 24/7. Help begins with a phone
call!
When a client is considering admission to the Recovery
Center they must undergo a thorough assessment to determine
the extent of their substance abuse/chemical dependency
problem. After the assessment, an individual course of
treatment is planned. The treatment may include
detoxification, residential, one of four levels of
outpatient, or a combination of different treatment
modalities over a period of time. Each client’s
treatment plan is individually developed and reviewed by the
client and treatment staff.
Staff members include the medical director, consulting
psychologist, program director, clinical coordinator,
co-dependency counselor, case/chart managers, nurse care
coordinator, assessment specialists, and unit secretary.
A 24-hour nursing service is also provided.
“Housed” (24/7 stay) at the MFRC or “traveling” (from home
base) describes two of the basic levels of service options
that are determined through assessment/evaluation.
There are various ways to be involved within these two basic
levels of service (see A thru H).
-
Acute care – inpatient:
This service is a medical emergency/urgency service and the
patient would in most cases be seen in ER and admitted to
temporary detox (1 to 5 days).
-
Residential outpatient
treatment takes place daily. The length of the
treatment stay is determined by the client’s daily progress.
The client is “housed” overnight at the Recovery Center
during treatment.
-
Outpatient treatment: MFRC outpatient treatment
services may be arranged Monday through Sunday – around
family needs and employment.
-
Day outpatient treatment/partial
hospitalization
– travel or housed may take place daily. Travel or
housed status is determined by evaluation/progress.
-
Intensive outpatient treatment is available 7 days a
week (Monday through Sunday) from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. or
5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Days, times, and number of
sessions is determined by an evaluation/progress. This
level of care may include 9 to 29 hours of service per week.
-
Extended outpatient treatment is set up on an
individual basis 1 to 3 times per week, as needed based on
the evaluation. It is also available 7 days a week.
This level of care may include 1 to 8 hours of service per
week. During many of the treatment sessions,
residential and outpatient clients may work together.
The sessions can include recreational therapy, educational
lectures, community group, specific group therapy,
one-on-one, and psychological therapy.
-
Continuing Care: During the treatment process the
chemically dependent person and their concerned person
family member may participate together with other recovering
people. The Recovery Center continuing care process is
structured to involve the patient and the concerned person
in the continuing care groups which are made up of people
who have successfully completed their treatment program.
This service is free to recent graduated MFRC patients.
Individuals needing continuing care services, but are not
recent MFRC alumni may make application and financial
arrangements for services. Continuing Care groups meet
at Manning Regional Healthcare Center on Wednesday evenings
at 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and are facilitated by counselors
and recovering peers. Relapse Groups are available as
needed. The 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. scheduled groups are
followed by support group meetings (AA – NA – Al-Anon).
The patient and the concerned person are encouraged to
participate in the continuing care for up to one year.
-
Concerned Person Program/Involvement:
The “Concerned Person” is usually the family member who is
closest to the chemically dependent person, and has been
affected by the consumption and/or use. At the
Recovery Center, concerned persons who have family members
in treatment, participate in treatment through the family
outpatient treatment program. They attend sessions up
to three nights each week for six weeks or more, plus
support groups. The program involves the concerned
person in educational lectures, community group, their own
group therapy sessions, one-on-one as needed, and support
group.
Family Education
MFRC hosts an education program that explores chemical
dependency, its affects on family and friends, what happens
in treatment, and how to help yourself and the chemically
dependent person. This program is open to the public
and is provided at no cost. Scheduling is based upon
individual family needs and participation.
Cost
The cost of treatment programs is usually covered by most
major insurance companies, as well as Title XIX and
Medicare. Anyone wishing for more information about
coverage can contact the Business Office Manager at
712-655-2072. Note: MFRC is not a contracted
state funded provider. MFRC is a Title XIX – Medicare
(Insurance) contracted provider. The Manning Regional
Healthcare Center Business Office will confidentially
check/review your treatment benefits for substance
abuse/chemical dependency services. A confidential
release for a benefit check is required. A
confidential release will also be required if the insurance
is through an employer in order to verify employment and
insurance status. Approximate costs, based on the type
of insurance and estimated length of stay, will be discussed
if possible, prior to admission.

Treatment levels are determined by evaluation.
Evaluations for non-emergency or planned admissions should
be scheduled in advance. Planned admissions are Monday
through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Fridays 8:00
a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Planned admission times are arranged
through the previously scheduled evaluation.
