The Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center and Clinics (SORCC) located in the Rogue Valley of Southern Oregon, is the nation’s only freestanding residential rehabilitation center. This type of care is defined by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) as a “residential rehabilitation program that provides short-term rehabilitative and long-term health maintenance care for veterans who require minimal medical care.” Additionally, the SORCC houses an active ambulatory care clinic providing primary care, mental health care, and sub-specialty care to Veterans in the surrounding area and into four rural counties(Jackson, Josephine, Klamath, and Lake) in Southern Oregon and Northern California, where care is limited. In addition to our traditional clinics, our outpatient service also include Care Coordination Home Tele-health (CCHT) and Home Based Primary Care (HBPC).
The SORCC provides a residential program with a two-fold mission of providing bio-psychosocial rehabilitation and long-term health maintenance. The SORCC offers an appropriate level of care for Veterans who do not require acute hospitalization or nursing home care but who cannot adequately provide for themselves in the community, and therefore need residential support. The SORCC adheres to Patient Centered Care Methodologies and Philosophy and provides safety, shelter, and food in a therapeutic, semi-structured, clean and sober environment. The SORCC provides a Holistic foundation for healthy lifestyle choices, effective social-skill building and higher-level clinical interventions and services when needed; all components to assist the Veteran in achieving optimal levels of functional independence, personal empowerment and health living. Although the primary SORCC program objective is to restore Veterans to independent or semi-independent community living, some Veterans require long-term health care maintenance.
