About Fairfax Hospital

BHC Fairfax Hospital has locations in Kirkland, Everett and Monroe, Washington. They specialize in psychiatric and detox services for children and adults.

You can walk in for an assessment 24/7/365. This process takes about 1.5 hours. During this process, they’ll determine the right level of care for your needs. If inpatient treatment is not right for you, they will offer their outpatient programs through BHC or other community providers. There is no cost for this assessment.

The average stay in their inpatient unit is 7-10 days. Ideally, you will step down into a less intense level of care afterwards.

They offer partial hospital and intensive outpatient programs for mental health. Their substance use program is an intensive outpatient program. These programs run either during the day or evening. In these programs you’ll be managed by a board certified psychiatrist and have a licensed clinician in charge of your case management. You’ll join others in group therapy and participate in structured family sessions.

BHC Fairfax has agreements with all managed care and private insurance providers. They also accept Medicare for adults and Medicaid for youth and adults.

I really like how clear and organized their billing department is. If you have any questions or billing concerns, you can contact your dedicated account rep. Their contact details are clearly listed on their website.

I didn t have much personal contact with you since it was my adult son in your hospital. I have a complaint about the entire mental health industry in Washington State. My sons older brother & I have guardianship & full conservatorship of Dylan. It s extremely frustrating that with the guardianship & conservatorship we are still ignored & are not kept notified & up to date when he has to go to in patient status. I was the person who called for help to try to get him in patient. His brothers & I only have his best interest in mind, we love him & only want to see him be successful. If the guardianship & conservatorship is not honored then why did I spend the money to hire an attorney, jump through the legal hoops to try to be able to help him? There is something severely wrong with the mental health side and the legal side that you do not talk to one another or agree with one another (unfortunately the pt loses).I would like to thank you for keeping him longer than the 72 hrs & taking the time to petition the court to keep him longer. 72 hour holds are never long enough for him. I would also like to recommend that if you are discharging pt s in the evening it would be helpful if you discharge them with a couple days of their medication so family or who ever is taking care of the pt has time to get the prescription filled. Thank you for helping my son.Michele Lee

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatien
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) are frequently used to facilitate clients' transition from inpatient to outpatient care. Clients who are more stable may also choose to enter IOP rather than a residential rehab following detox. Intensive outpatient treatment typically consists of nine to 20 therapeutic hours per week, with services ranging from psychotherapy to recovery education to holistic care. Many programs offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid and/or alcohol addiction.
aftercare iconAftercare
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
It can be difficult for family and friends to carry out a successful drug intervention in Washington on their own. Intervention services can help. These services typically include education about addiction and enabling behaviors, expert facilitation for interventions, and recommendations for appropriate treatment. Often, the involvement of intervention services can create a smooth transition into rehab.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Effective drug rehab in Washington integrates care for the whole person, offering comprehensive solutions to addiction. Treatment methods address mental, physical, and relational aspects of substance abuse.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person’s mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation. Patients with Co-occurring Disorders often referred to as Dual Diagnosis, face special challenges that can impact recovery. These include denial, difficulty functioning day-to-day, and trouble maintaining relationships at home, work or school. The Co-occurring Disorders treatment at Fairfax Behavioral Health provides inpatient detoxification for adult or adolescents patients with concurrent mental illness and substance abuse issues.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Clinicians who apply motivational interviewing techniques engage with their clients as equal partners. This method avoids warnings and confrontation and instead allows clients to analyze their situation and explore their options. This technique is often used when the client feels unsure about their ability or desire to change.

The goal of trauma therapy is to help you heal from the aftereffects of a traumatic experience. Your therapist will provide you with a safe and supportive space to process these trauma memories and develop better coping strategies that enhance your emotional resilience.

Couples therapy can help a couple navigate their differences. By learning powerful interpersonal skills in therapy, the couple can work together to overcome challenges and change the direction of their relationship.

It takes a lot of effort on the patients part to get answers to things that should be readily available.They always seem to be very short staffed. There's a lot of different staff/visitor staff, which seems like where most of the confusion and lack of answers come from. It took me asking 5-6 times to get anything close to a real answer to my questions. I was kept in a lot longer compared to other places I've been at. You are supposed to meet with your case manager the 1st to 2nd day after you're admitted, that wasn't the case for me. I was there for 2 weeks and I didn't meet her till day 11. I also never received methadone even though I told them plenty of times that I was on it, they instead gave my meds for withdrawal instead of helping me connect with my methadone clinic. Even though I had a hard time getting info/meds that should have been readily available I did get the help I needed... Eventually! Lol they have decent food. And I met some really caring individuals that worked there! They just need to be more organized and it would be nice to have more permanent staff members then visitor staff. All in all it was an okay stay while I was there. I met some amazing staff as well as some patients that truly helped me. Thank you!

The treatment and counseling I received through the Fairfax Hospital mental health online group program was insightful, professional, useful and relevant to my particular situation.I recommend this program highly to anyone like me that was going through rock-bottom, debilitating depression and despair.Of course, everybody's situation is generally unique, but the four weeks that I participated in this program was definitely beneficial and instrumental in moving my ,mental health issues along to a much healthier better place, leaving me with a long list of useful and relevant coping skills.The staff was wonderfully supportive, friendly, well trained and skilled.I am seriously quite pleased with the results.

In every young male complaining from chest pain, his complaint should be taken seriously. The physician should always bear in mind that the heart might be seriously complaining.A patient with mental health problems might have other issues at the same time.I have been trained in a ( 3 rd world country) and I know that, (( if you give Propranolol and your young male patient complains from chest pain. Investigate well because you might end giving your young patient ( heart failure for life )).I am posting this for the sake of the other patients, just a not gentle reminder. Wishing all patients a speedy healthy recovery.I had to rate so that I can post, otherwise I would just posted my comments.

Great food. Friendly staff. But I suspect they are taking the patients medication or just being stingy with it. Opiate addicts said that aren't helping them enough. And as an alcoholic I'm trembling and falling because I think the dose of Benzodiazapines wasnt enough. And patches, gums - doesn't cut it - most places let you smoke. I had to discharge myself after 2 days instead of 5 for need of a real cigarette.
