It was also a time for acknowledgements and praise, with several key stakeholders speaking before an audience that overflowed from the dining room into the kitchen and adjacent hallway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The comments reiterated common themes \u2013 collaboration, determination, passion and gratitude \u2013 and focused on how Lincoln County greatly needs this important service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Words of Gratitude<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat a meaningful day this is \u2013 for Lincoln County, for Samaritan and for everyone who has worked tirelessly to bring this vision to life,\u201d said Marty Cahill, Samaritan Health Services CEO and president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEvery square foot of this facility tells a story of community partnership,\u201d Cahill said. \u201cHealth districts and foundations came together with vision. Local governments and civic leaders offered their support. State and federal partners championed the cause. Tribal partners, donors, architects, builders and our own Samaritan teams all contributed their time, resources and heart to create a place of hope and healing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aimee Thompson, a Pacific Communities Health District board director and 25-year resident of Lincoln County, spoke about the desperate need for a local inpatient treatment and recovery center. Between September 2019 through August 2021, 4.5% of the adult population in Lincoln County was diagnosed with a substance abuse disorder, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo get help, which is most likely the hardest thing they\u2019ve ever done, they leave family and the county and tackle addiction all at once. It\u2019s been a huge barrier,\u201d Thompson said. \u201cSo today, on behalf of our entire board, I am thrilled to see this facility open its doors for folks who didn\u2019t think clean and sober was a possibility. But my biggest hope is that it changes families and gives children the opportunity to thrive in their homes with family who will support them to lead lives without addiction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-9-16 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Samaritan Treatment &amp; Recovery Services - Newport Ribbon Cutting\" width=\"422\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q-87cHpr2GY?feature=oembed&#038;rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Facility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The $12.2 million project was funded by broad support from community members, businesses, private foundations, tribal confederations, and local, state and federal governmental entities. Samaritan Pacific Communities Health District Foundation and North Lincoln Hospital Foundation led the successful fundraising effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a model developed at Samaritan\u2019s first treatment and recovery center in Lebanon, the Newport facility has 16 inpatient beds to serve adults ages 18 and older who are experiencing substance use disorder. Residential treatment and intensive outpatient programs include group and individual therapy, medication-assisted treatment and peer-delivered services. Patients will be accepted from across Oregon, with priority given to residents of Lincoln County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The building and property, which had previously been used as an adult foster care home, was purchased by the Pacific Communities Health District. Services and staffing will be provided by Samaritan Health Services in accordance with the long-term operating agreement between Samaritan and the health district.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clark\/Kjos, located in Portland, is the architectural firm that designed plans for the remodeled interior and the new two-story addition. Gerding Builders, LLC, from Corvallis, was the general contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For information about services offered, call 541-574-7202 or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/health-services\/all-services\/addiction-medicine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">samhealth.org\/Recovery.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<aside>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/STARS-exterior-front-CO.jpg\" class=\"attachment-cta size-cta wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/STARS-exterior-front-CO.jpg 360w, https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/STARS-exterior-front-CO-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/STARS-exterior-front-CO-120x100.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/STARS-ribbon-cutting-CO.jpg\" class=\"attachment-cta size-cta\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption>Among those helping cut the celebratory ribbon are Samaritan CEO\/President Marty Cahill (center) and State Rep.
