About Recover at Baptist Health
Recover at Baptist Health is the substance use program housed at Baptist Health Medical Center in Little Rock, Arkansas, located at 9601 Baptist Health Drive. As one of Arkansas’s largest healthcare systems and a Newsweek America’s Most Admired Workplace, Baptist Health brings the resources of a full general hospital to addiction care, including 24/7 medical staffing, access to medical and surgical specialties, and integrated discharge planning.
The program focuses on medical detoxification for adults experiencing acute alcohol and opioid withdrawal. Because care is delivered inside an accredited hospital, patients with complicated medical histories – cardiac conditions, hepatic complications, advanced age, or other co-occurring concerns – can be managed safely while addiction-specific clinical work begins. The Joint Commission-accredited program emphasizes evidence-based withdrawal management, medication oversight, and stabilization before patients step down to outpatient or residential treatment with community partners.
Clinical programming during the inpatient stay layers cognitive behavioral therapy, individual counseling, and group sessions onto the medical detox curriculum. Discharge planners begin the next-step conversation early, coordinating referrals to outpatient programs, residential facilities, and primary care follow-up through Baptist Health Physician Partners or partner providers. ASL accessibility is provided for Deaf and hard-of-hearing patients.
Recover at Baptist Health accepts Arkansas Medicaid, Medicare, private commercial insurance, TRICARE, state insurance, and self-pay. Baptist Health has publicly addressed periodic network situations with specific insurers, so patients are encouraged to verify coverage at intake. The admissions line at 501-202-7263 (501-202-RECOVER) is open for new patients and referring physicians across Pulaski County and central Arkansas.
