The medical care here isn't so much the issue as far a community hospital can offer. It's the communication and getting different information from different people on the same question and information. My Gramma passed away in lich after being brought into the hospital via ambulance from a sudden cardiac arrest. She was only 70 years old. The emergency room physician didn't know what caused the cardiac arrest which is understandable. As a health care provider sudden arrest can only be determined through autopsy. So me and my family requested an autopsy. After making numerous phone calls with the ER, nursing supervsion, logistics, were all trying to contact the the physician that pronounced her dead to authorize and autopsy. After about 7 days of calling different people and asking nursing supervisors where her body was. The nursing supervisor and logistics didn't know if she was lich morgue. Called numerous times and they had no idea if she was in there morgue. They I tried contacting there Winthrop pathology autopsy department and left voicemails. Never got a returned phone call of mine. So today I finally got in touch with them today and the supervisor of the morgue/autopsy department said that she was never there. I said what do you mean lich hospital said they were going to send her there for an autopsy. They said maybe she hasn't arrived yet. I said hasn't arrived ? She died almost 3 weeks ago. She said 3 weeks ,!! I said yes. She said hold on one second sir. She came back on the line and said she's no longer here anymore. She was here. I said okay so the autopsy was already performed. She said yes. I said okay how do I obtain that report. She said you have to call lich hospital in Patchogue and ask medical records because she died in there hospital. So I called lich hospital medical records and they said that they didn't see her information in here. But we'll send you the request information via email and you can fill it out and send it to us. I said okay. So I fill it out and send it over. I call back to make sure the received it. They said yes they did. And they looked up my Gramma name again. And said yes we see her here but it's saying the results are still processing. So much mixed information. Nobody knows what the right department is to transfer. Nobody knows any information. Communication system is very very bad.

My name is Laurie. I've been in the Emergency room for the last 10 hours. I have been treated so Royally by my male nurse named Tristan. He went beyond the realm to make me feel comfortable. I needed 1 unit of blood. He stood by me every bit of the way. Answered all my questions. Put me at ease. I've been there in the past. No one ever stood by me like Tristan. This hospital is lucky to have him. He's a real blessing.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Clients in rehab aftercare programs receive a customized portfolio of services designed to promote their sustained sobriety. These clients have completed high-level treatment, are typically exiting detox and/or intensive inpatient care and are reintegrating into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services address addiction disease as a chronic condition requiring continuing care. Clients typically work with case managers and recovery teams to access necessary resources, such as peer coaching and 12 step program induction support.
12-step icon12-Step
Participants in 12 step programs maintain access to community-based peer support, which is the programs' primary treatment modality. 12 step recovery combines personal growth with paper coaching. Participants regularly attend group meetings, which are free, anonymous, open to the public, and available multiple times per day in most communities. They are also mentored by self-selected sponsors who guide them through the steps of recovery. Age and gender specific and other specialized formats are common.

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

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

Men and women receive emotional support from their peers during group therapy sessions. These are typically people who face the same struggles that you do. This exposure fosters a sense of camaraderie and community while reducing feelings of isolation and loneliness that often accompany addiction.

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.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

As you recover from addiction, eating the right foods will help you heal and build your health for long term sobriety. Nutrition therapy teaches you about the nutrition your body needs and how to eat the right foods to support your recovery.

The philosophy behind experiential therapy is that your behavior is guided by your perception. This therapy allows you to express yourself creatively, which reveals how you perceive events. Your therapist will guide you through the exploration of your emotions to release negative ones and experience positive ones.

Nicotine is an addictive substance found in cigarettes. When you stop smoking, your body experiences withdrawal from this substance. Nicotine replacement therapy lets you slowly reduce your nicotine intake so you experience minimal withdrawal symptoms. Eventually you'll be down to zero.

Had a bad experience once, this is about someone I know personally and happened more recently.My friend recently had nerves in his back prevent him from moving and was taken in via ambulance.The nursing staff did well however MD released with 3 days of pills, follow-up instructions which make no sense to someone who can barely move and wouldn't even allow him to rest overnight so that an insurance covered cab could get him safely home.The man is well over sixty years old with no phone and was discharged into the parking lot to struggle in agony to an ATM and then finally was able to find a cab.Some of the people there need to remember the doctors oath and stop making unethical decisions because they are obviously have way too much malpractice insurance - seems to me those people within this medical facility are absolutely bent on having an astronomically large judgement sanctioned by the court against them and then swiftly collected.Looking at other reviews, my opinion is that THAT will happen sooner than later.

I love this hospital. I was there for a week and they made me feel safe & comfortable, love the nurses, love the doctors. I had everything that could have been checked done. Love the people who did the MRI, love the people who did the X-Ray, love the people who did the sonogram, and I love the guy and his assistant who stitched my arm up. Thanks everyone
