Our commitment extends not only to our clients but to their families as well. We believe family involvement in treatment is extremely beneficial and in some cases crucial to recovery. Our Family Program includes an enlightening, three-day experience offered during each resident's stay. The focus is on education, lectures, films, process groups and group therapy. We have a state-of-the-art ropes course which is used for experiential therapy and a fitness trail around the perimeter of the property. All of this blends with our holistic approach to healing. Our facility has its own kitchen and dining room that handles any special dietary needs of our residents. We use our auditorium for large groups, yoga, family program, etc. We are located 100 miles from the Boise airport, 35 miles from the Twin Falls airport and 3 miles from Gooding's class G airport. To assist residents and their families in recovery, the Walker Center Alumni Support Groups are provided on a weekly basis in Gooding, Twin Falls, Boise, Hailey, Idaho Falls and Pocatello, Idaho. Clients are considered alumni when they have completed all recommended levels of treatment to be determined by counselor based on need. In addition, our Alumni Association hosts family oriented events and activities throughout the year. The Walker Center's counselors serve southern Idaho by providing a variety of services to area communities, including assessments, crisis interventions, public speaking, workshops, in-service training, cooperation with employee assistance programs and referrals. Inquiries are accepted on a 24 hour per day, 7 day a week basis. We place no restrictions on referrals - anyone may call for help. The patient will then be assessed to determine the appropriate care needed. It is and shall continue to be the policy of the Walker Center that all persons are entitled to equal opportunity regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability. Our Physician, Reid Lofgran, DO is a certified addictionologist. Dr. Lofgran and the staff at the Walker Center bring years of addictions treatment experience and specialized education and training to the recovery process. |
