Team Recovery cuts ribbon on 75‑bed detox, residential center

Team Recovery celebrated the grand opening of its 75‑bed Detox and Residential Facility last month at 5217 Monroe St., Toledo.

The state‑of‑the‑art center expands critical treatment options for people affected by substance use disorder and co‑occurring mental health conditions.

During a morning ceremony attended by community leaders, health professionals and elected officials, speakers hailed the facility as a turning point in Northwest Ohio’s response to addiction. The center completes Team Recovery’s full continuum of care, joining its outpatient services and Ohio Recovery Housing–certified transitional homes to guide clients from medically supervised detox through long‑term recovery support.

 “By opening these doors, we are opening new futures,” Team Recovery chief integration officer Savannah Rayford told the crowd while thanking partners and supporters. “Together we are breaking stigma, fostering hope and ensuring dignity in care.”

Matt Bell, Team Recovery co‑founder, traced the organization’s growth across Ohio and underscored its commitment to access. The facility accepts all Ohio Medicaid plans, private pay and is finalizing contracts with commercial and Medicare insurers. Staff assist eligible clients with Medicaid enrollment so cost never blocks entry to care.

Lisa Sobecki presented a proclamation honoring Team Recovery’s leadership in harm reduction and life‑saving services, while Toledo Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz pledged the city’s continued partnership in addressing addiction and mental health challenges.

Although overdose deaths in Ohio fell 37 percent in the third quarter of 2024, demand for quality treatment remains high. Team Recovery now serves urban and rural communities statewide, including top referrals tracing back to Lucas, Wood, Cuyahoga, Williams, Allen, Franklin and Lorain counties, connecting residents to much needed evidence‑based care.

Key features of the new facility include:

• Medically supervised detox with 24‑hour nursing and physician oversight.
• Residential treatment delivered by licensed clinicians, case managers and certified peer supporters.
• Individualized recovery plans that integrate mental health therapy, family engagement and aftercare coordination.
• Client‑centered design shaped by people with lived experience, promoting comfort, safety and dignity.
