Livengrin to Hold Ribbon Cutting for New Detox Medical Facility and State-Of-The Art Community Center

New facilities constructed to meet the needs of the growing opioid epidemic

Bensalem, PA – On Friday, October 13, Livengrin Foundation (Livengrin) will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony to officially open the doors of its two newest facilities – the Joseph R. Jignoli, Jr. Medical Center and the Chapman Community Center.

Livengrin’s new, custom designed, 36-bed Joseph R. Jingoli, Jr. Medical Center will be one of the region’s largest inpatient subacute medical detox facilities. The modern, open floor plan creates a positive environment to foster dialogue, trust, and healing in the difficult early stages of treatment. Counseling and intervention supports are provided to all patients and available to their families to help keep the patient engaged in their recovery beyond detox. The new Chapman Community Center will include a 120-seat presentation room and as well as treatment offices for both Livengrin’s Gambling and First Responders Addiction Treatment (FRAT) Programs. This new facility will host both Livengrin education events and be available for community organizations to use for sobriety-related education and fellowship events.

Tours of the new buildings will immediately follow the ribbon cutting.
