Guardian Recovery – Tampa Addiction Center Now In-Network
With VA Community Care Network
Guardian Recovery – Tampa Addiction Center announces its addition to the Veterans Administration Community Care Network (CCN). The Largo detoxification center continues to increase access to affordable behavioral healthcare services and offers hope to veterans seeking treatment.
Both the culture of the military and the stressors and challenges unique to deployment can be major risk factors in the development of substance use disorders and other mental health concerns.
VA Community Care Network, a study recently published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), found that roughly half of all military personnel believed seeking help for a VA Community Care Network concern would negatively impact their career. The stigma surrounding addiction prevents many veterans from openly pursuing recovery, as does lack of accessible treatment options.
Guardian Recovery – Tampa Addiction Center allows combat veterans to access help with an increased level of confidentiality. The Largo treatment center also works to break the stigma common among members of this deeply valued demographic by employing combat veterans with personal experience in recovery.

“Achieving in-network status with the CCN removes a significant barrier to veterans in need of high-quality substance use disorder treatment options,” says Mike Maloney, combat veteran and Guardian Recovery Primary Therapist. “I’m thrilled that Guardian Recovery and Guardian Recovery are helping those who are still sick and suffering among us. It’s an honor to share a message of hope and show other veterans that recovery is possible.”

Fighting for Those Who Fought for Us
Guardian Recovery – Tampa Addiction Center is dedicated to better serving the unique needs of veterans, who face a disproportionate burden of substance use and mental health challenges.
NIDA reports more than one in ten veterans have been diagnosed with a substance use disorder. The veteran population is also critically impacted by a range of issues relating to substance use, including increased risk of suicide, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and homelessness.

“I always hoped the VA would lean into the abundance of community resources available to those in need,” Maloney says. “Give them a choice. Give them a chance. Give them expedited and outstanding care. Give them everything they need to feel whole and actively participate in life once again.”
Offering veterans access to local community resources that specialize in substance use disorders and co-occurring VA Community Care Network will improve recovery rates and dramatically improve overall quality of life.
The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) reports that outside of the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), only 13% of private VA Community Care Network met criteria to deliver culturally competent care. Failing to address clinical requirements distinctive to members of this population often leads to compromised treatment outcomes.
Guardian Recovery – Tampa Addiction Center provides VA Community Care Network options, addressing the unique clinical needs of combat veterans with a range of evidence-based modalities.
