About

About Stepworks of Elizabethtown

Stepworks of Elizabethtown sits at 1207 Woodland Drive, a quiet residential block in Hardin County, Kentucky. Together with its sister campus at Crowne Pointe, the location serves as the Stepworks network’s anchor in central Kentucky’s largest metropolitan corridor outside Louisville. SAMHSA confirms residential treatment, medical detox, and outpatient services on-site, all dual-supported by CARF accreditation and the broader Stepworks clinical standards.

The program runs the full Stepworks continuum: 30-day medical detox and residential, intensive outpatient (IOP) for clients stepping down or attending while working, sober living apartments for the post-residential transition, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with physician-managed Suboxone or Vivitrol where opioids are involved. Cognitive behavioral therapy anchors the clinical methodology, and trauma-informed care extends to the populations confirmed by SAMHSA: veterans, pregnant women, seniors, women’s-specific cohorts, men, court-ordered admits, and clients carrying HIV/AIDS or co-occurring diagnoses.

Founder and CEO Tom Ingram, MD set up Stepworks around what he describes as helping people “recover the life that they were always meant to have before addiction stole it from them.” His clinical team applies that mission across all five Kentucky Stepworks sites, with shared insurance contracts, intake screening, and admissions processes. The Woodland Drive campus benefits from that shared infrastructure – clients can transfer between Stepworks levels of care without leaving the network.

Financially, Stepworks accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Humana, CareSource, Passport, WellCare, Optum, Cigna, and Kentucky Medicaid, along with Medicare, state insurance, and self-pay. Reviewers rate the campus 3.8 stars across more than 50 Google reviews. The free phone-based addiction screening at (800) 545-9031 lets potential clients verify benefits and recommended level of care before committing to admission.
