About Alexandria VA Health Care System

At Jennings VA Clinic, you’ll receive personalized primary medical care to stay healthy and confidential mental health support to improve emotional wellbeing. You’ll also receive compassionate guidance including smoking cessation. Jennings VA Clinic is conveniently located in Jennings, Louisiana. They’re just a few blocks from Jeff Davis Parish Courthouse Park and about five miles northeast of Lake Arthur.

The cool thing is you can access the bulk of their services via telehealth if you prefer. Accessing care from the comfort of your home enhances convenience and eliminates transportation barriers to treatment.

Another great thing about this clinic is that you have flexibility on how you can fund your recovery, whether by self-pay or via insurance. They accept Medicaid, Medicare, and TRICARE, alongside many private health coverage. You may even receive financial aid if you meet the eligibility criteria.

Treatment Support for Substance Use Recovery

Jennings VA Clinic incorporates substance use recovery as an integral component of their confidential outpatient mental healthcare. You’ll first undergo an intake assessment, followed by. individual and group counseling to help you grow through connection and shared experience. I like that they also prescribe FDA-approved meds via medication assisted treatment (MAT). This helps you ease cravings and manage painful withdrawal symptoms.

Help With Quitting Smoking

Jennings VA Clinic can provide extra support if nicotine replacement therapy from your primary care doctor isn’t enough to help you quit smoking. I noticed that this may include MAT. They also offer helpful tools like the Quitline and SmokefreeVET texts to guide you with daily support, encouragement and practical strategies to quit for good. This program helps you take back control of your health, one smoke-free day at a time.
