Lss Barron Area Residential Treatment sits about 15 miles outside Rice Lake, Wisconsin, on 806 29 1/2 Avenue in Barronett, and it has a small eight-bed adult residential treatment program for men who have substance use disorders, and what folks notice right away is the sense of calm you get out there, because the whole place feels a little removed from the hustle, so people can focus on the care and support they need, and the facility offers both inpatient and outpatient services, meaning some people stay full-time while others might come and go for different therapy sessions, plus there's support for detox, aftercare, and even a sober living program to help men return to their communities after treatment. The place provides private or semi-private studio rooms, and some have kitchenettes, so everyone has a bit of personal space, and the staff, who are always close at hand for 24/7 supervision, help with daily tasks like medication management, bathing, dressing, transfers, and meal preparation, which is helpful for men who need a supportive home during recovery. There's a focus on evidence-based care, like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, group and individual counseling, and even more hands-on therapies like experiential exercises or EMDR, plus the team provides relapse prevention, equine therapy, and wilderness outings for those who benefit from getting outdoors.
The Lss Barron Area Residential Treatment facility also offers specialty programs for many different needs, with options for men's rehab, young adults, seniors, veterans, women, LGBTQ+ individuals, those needing holistic or faith-based care, professionals, and families, and they make room for both medical and mental health needs like dual diagnosis, so a man struggling with addiction and a mental health disorder can get attention for both. People get help with drug and alcohol problems, whether it's heroin, fentanyl, meth, alcohol, or other substances, and the staff follow programs designed to cut down on relapse. Beyond counseling, the team supports residents with practical things, offering job support, restorative justice, family counseling, and case management, because getting back on your feet often means more than just treatment sessions. Seniors and others who live here also get some assisted living services, such as help with daily activities and emergency alert systems, housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, and move-in coordination, so day-to-day needs don't fall through the cracks.
For downtime and community building, residents can use the walking paths, gardens, or go hiking outdoors, plus regular activities like movie nights, art and music sessions, and meditation rooms help create a sense of belonging, and transportation services make it easier for those who need to get around. Some rooms are furnished, and shared spaces include dining and recreation rooms, with meal options for special diets like diabetes or allergies. The staff encourages family involvement, updating loved ones and welcoming them to activities, and the community's small setting means everyone gets to know each other. Payment can be handled through Medicaid, private insurance, self-pay, or sliding scale assistance, which gives families some flexibility, and all of these details come together to create a setting where folks can work through recovery and daily life with support, structure, and understanding.
