FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LAKE-GEAUGA RECOVERY CENTERS
ANNOUNCES RETURN TO IN-PERSON GROUP THERAPY AT ALL OUTPATIENT OFFICES
Mentor, OH. July 20, 2020: As part of our Phase III Return to Work plan, Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers announces a return to in-person group therapy which was temporarily suspended at all outpatient offices. “We are so happy to once again offer in-person groups for individuals and families, both for prevention and treatment. I am very proud of Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers’ staff for their compassion and enthusiastic dedication to making this happen during these uncertain times,” said Melanie Blasko, President and CEO of Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers.

As we return to in-person groups in our outpatient offices, we’ve given careful consideration to preparation and planning for our outpatient meeting spaces as the health and safety of staff and clients remains our number one priority. In accordance with the CDC guidelines, we have taken proactive steps to minimize the spread of COVID-19 including extra attention to cleaning and sanitizing our facilities and requiring that all clients and staff wear a mask or face covering at all times when in the outpatient offices.

While all outpatient services have returned to in-person visits, telehealth will continue to be offered at this time.

Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers’ residential treatment services and recovery houses have continued to operate for those seeking admission to this level of care. We are accepting new clients and have immediate openings available in our residential treatment programs.

We know during these stressful and uncertain times that those struggling with addiction continue to need care. We are here for you and ready to help. For more information about our programs and services, or for general information, you can reach us at 440-255-0678 to info@lgrc.us.

Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers is a private, nonprofit agency providing continuous service to the community since 1971. Services at Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers are made possible due to the generous support of the Lake County ADAMHS Board, the Geauga Board of MHRS, and United Way of Lake & Geauga Counties.
