About

About Region 8 Mental Health Services Residential Treatment Center

Region 8 Mental Health Services Residential Treatment Center is a residential addiction treatment facility located at 3112 Simpson Highway 13 in Mendenhall, Mississippi. The center operates within Simpson County and provides a structured continuum of care for men dealing with substance use disorders and co-occurring psychiatric conditions, including trauma and PTSD. For individuals or families searching for a medically supervised detox program in south-central Mississippi, this facility represents one of the few options offering full residential-level services in the region.

The facility provides three distinct levels of care: medical detox, residential treatment, and an outpatient program. Medical detox is available as the clinical entry point for individuals who require supervised withdrawal management before transitioning into longer-term residential treatment. The outpatient program extends support for those who have completed a higher level of care or whose clinical needs are appropriate for community-based treatment. This continuum allows for a step-down structure within a single facility.

Clinically, the center addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis alongside substance use, which is significant for individuals whose addiction intersects with mental health conditions such as trauma or PTSD. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the therapeutic methods used. The facility conducts services in English and operates Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Region 8 Mental Health Services serves a defined set of populations: men, veterans, individuals who are court-ordered into treatment, those living with HIV/AIDS, and those who are deaf or hard of hearing. This specificity matters for families vetting whether a program is clinically equipped for a loved one’s particular circumstances. The center accepts Medicaid and self-pay, making it accessible to individuals without private insurance coverage. For men in Mississippi who need medical detox followed by residential care — particularly those with dual diagnoses or who are navigating the legal system — Region 8 offers a structured, multi-level treatment option.

  • Medical detox available as a clinical entry point before residential treatment — all within the same facility
  • Specifically equipped to treat co-occurring disorders including trauma and PTSD alongside addiction
  • Serves specialized populations: veterans, court-ordered individuals, deaf and hard of hearing, and those with HIV/AIDS
  • Accepts Medicaid, expanding access to medically supervised detox for men without private insurance
  • Full continuum from medical detox through residential treatment to outpatient — step-down structure in one location

Medical Detox and Withdrawal Management in Mendenhall, MS

Region 8 Mental Health Services Residential Treatment Center offers medical detox as the clinical first step for men who need supervised withdrawal management before entering longer-term treatment. Located in Mendenhall in Simpson County, the facility provides this service within a residential setting, meaning patients do not need to transfer to a separate detox facility before beginning their treatment program.

For families researching same-day or urgent placement options in Mississippi, the availability of medical detox at a Medicaid-accepting residential center is a meaningful distinction. Individuals can reach the facility directly at (601) 847-2623 during operating hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Residential Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders and Dual Diagnosis

Following medical detox, patients at Region 8 MHS can transition into the center's residential treatment program, which is designed to address both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The facility specifically treats trauma and PTSD alongside addiction — a combination that is clinically significant and often undertreated at standard detox-only programs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a core therapeutic method used within the program. This focus on dual diagnosis means that men presenting with complex clinical profiles — including those with trauma histories — can receive coordinated care rather than being referred elsewhere for psychiatric support.

Who Region 8 MHS Serves: Specialized Populations

Region 8 Mental Health Services is specifically structured to serve men, including veterans, court-ordered individuals, those living with HIV/AIDS, and those who are deaf or hard of hearing. This degree of population specificity is uncommon among residential detox programs and reflects the facility's role as a regional resource for underserved groups in Mississippi.

For veterans seeking medically supervised detox and residential treatment in a program that acknowledges their specific needs, or for families coordinating court-ordered placements, the facility's confirmed capacity to serve these groups removes a layer of uncertainty during an already stressful process. The center accepts Medicaid and self-pay, and can be contacted at (601) 847-2623.

Payment Options for Detox and Residential Treatment

Region 8 Mental Health Services accepts Medicaid and self-pay for its detox and residential treatment programs. Medicaid coverage for medical detox is a critical access point for men in Mississippi who need inpatient-level withdrawal management but do not carry private insurance.

Families comparing detox centers should ask directly about current availability and eligibility when calling. The facility's main line is (601) 847-2623, reachable Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
