About Patriot PowerUp Program
Patriot PowerUp runs a 45-day residential program near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, for veterans coping with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and traumatic brain injury. The program combines levels of care: focused neuro-rehabilitation, three one-on-one therapy sessions each week, and daily group therapy using methods shown to help. Available to veterans nationwide through the VA Community Care Network, Patriot PowerUP helps people start toward a purpose-filled life.
Harness Data-Driven Tools for Healing
Patriot PowerUp offers veterans a personalized, data-driven recovery plan in four clear steps. First, Reveal gathers health data—blood tests, brain-function assessments and surveys—to pinpoint each individual’s needs. Next, Repair applies targeted treatments such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy, ketamine infusions and customized nutrition to address brain injuries, PTSD and depression. Then, Rewire strengthens positive neural pathways through cognitive exercises, psychotherapy and real-time neurofeedback. Finally, Retrain embeds lasting habits via guided fitness routines, ongoing nutrition coaching and practical mental-health education.
Experience a Serene Mountain Retreat
Patriot PowerUp provides veterans with private rooms to create a calm, restorative atmosphere as they heal. Veterans can enjoy a heated pool for gentle exercise and stress relief. The center also allows cell-phone access, so veterans can stay connected with loved ones on their own schedule. Beyond the comforts indoors, Patriot PowerUp’s mountain setting, with guided meditation spaces and nearby hiking trails, invite a balanced routine for body and mind.
Connect with Ongoing VA Support
The 45-day residential program gives veterans an intensive, data-driven reset, then equips them to carry that progress forward by teaching real-life skills like nutrition, fitness, psychoeducation, and brain-training techniques under their “Retrain” pillar so healing doesn’t evaporate when they leave the house. Because the program is tied into the VA Community Care Network, veterans leave with care that’s clinically rigorous and connected to longer-term supports, not something they have to cobble together alone.
