Medical detox through residential care — coordinated by one interdisciplinary team, with clear roles for counselors, nurses, and medical providers, at one Morrilton campus. Your care doesn't start over at each level.
Residential Treatment
Daily therapy and group sessions in a structured environment to start rebuilding. Same care team for the whole stay, on our Morrilton campus. Dual diagnosis support available.

Adults 18 and over, men and women. Accredited by The Joint Commission.
How far is Hickory Grove Recovery from Little Rock, and how do I get there?

What happens in medical detox at Hickory Grove Recovery, and which substances does it cover?
Care begins with medical and behavioral-health assessments. Nurses monitor patients around the clock during medical detox, and authorized medical providers direct medication and medical care as part of a personalized detox plan. Detox is available as stabilization when it is clinically needed, regardless of substance: alcohol, opioids including fentanyl and heroin, methamphetamine and other stimulants, benzodiazepines, and prescription drugs. How long it takes is determined by medical necessity, not a set number of days. Patients who complete detox can move directly into residential treatment on the same campus, without transferring anywhere else.
Do you offer Suboxone, Subutex or Vivitrol?
Yes. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) at Hickory Grove Recovery includes Suboxone, Subutex and Vivitrol, used when clinically appropriate during medical detox and residential treatment, and paired with counseling rather than offered in place of it. Where clinically appropriate, MAT continues as part of discharge planning, coordinated with a provider near home.
Who does Hickory Grove Recovery treat?
Adults 18 and over, men and women, with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma, and bipolar disorder. We serve veterans. Couples may enter treatment together, each with an individual plan. Pregnant women are admitted and prioritized for evaluation. We work with people coming from jail, court, or probation.
Can my family visit, and where do they park?
Yes. Visitation is on Fridays, 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. Visits are scheduled through the patient's counselor. Every visitor must be approved and have a valid Release of Information authorization on file, and patients may also coordinate their approved visitors with their counselor. Visitors must be at least 18 years old, and no more than two visitors may come per visit. Visitors may park in the lot next to the Health Department.
