CRC Health Group Announces Acquisition of Oregon's Willamette Valley Treatment Center
CUPERTINO, CA, Feb 01, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
CRC Health Group, the nation's largest network of behavioral health
and addiction treatment services, today announced the acquisition of
Willamette Valley Treatment Center located in Salem, Oregon. Founded
in 1999, the Willamette Valley Treatment Center provides
comprehensive outpatient addiction treatment services.
"We are very pleased to announce the acquisition of Willamette Valley
Treatment Center and welcome their exceptional staff and high-quality
program to our outstanding network," said R. Andrew Eckert, Chief
Executive Officer of CRC Health Group.
CRC Health Group currently owns the most comprehensive network of
addiction treatment services in the nation. The addition of
Willamette Valley Treatment Center expands the company's ability to
offer individuals the latest, evidence-based addiction treatment
services that include medication-assisted treatment (MAT) like
Suboxone and methadone. MAT is a highly regulated treatment option
for individuals who are attempting to overcome an addiction to
opioids such as prescription narcotics (Oxycontin, Codeine, Percocet,
Morphine, etc.) and heroin. When used in proper doses as part of a
medically supervised addiction treatment program, research has
confirmed that the medications used in MAT programs can block
cravings and other withdrawal symptoms, and allow individuals to live
normal, productive lives.
Together, CRC and Willamette Valley Treatment Center will administer
medication-assisted treatment in a safe and caring environment that
is supervised by a physician medical director and clinical staff, as
part of a complete treatment plan that includes motivational and
behavioral therapy, group counseling, and individual counseling to
enhance recovery success. The program also provides intake
assessments, treatment for co-occurring disorders, drug abuse
education, individualized treatment planning, and relapse prevention.
Said Eckert, "Jay [Lawshe, former Executive President who will stay
on as Clinic Director] has established a very positive reputation in
this community and has greatly helped to increase awareness and
understanding about treatment clinics. We are excited to partner with
her and continue her terrific legacy."
Headquartered in Cupertino, Calif., CRC Health Group is the most
comprehensive network of specialized behavioral healthcare services
in the nation. CRC offers the largest array of personalized treatment
options, allowing individuals, families and professionals to choose
the most appropriate treatment setting for their behavioral,
addiction, weight management and therapeutic education needs. CRC is
committed to making its services widely and easily available, while
