Medical briefcase icon 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.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

family iconFamily Therapy

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.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

Nutrition Therapy

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

recreational-therapy iconRecreational Therapy

Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

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.

My sister was here, and they would not give me any information about her state of being nor would they let me talk to her. They do not take on count the family. Do not send your loved ones here.

2001-2002 was the time I was here. Age 12. Does anybody else remember Susan Waybright (staff, maybe a nurse? Not completely sure considering the timeline) was truly a blessing and made my stay much more bearable. She's the only one I completely remember.

I could say a lot about this place due to working through agency here for 8 months. Majority isn't good either. To sum it all up, don't waste your time as an aide or nurse here. Their turnover rates are high for a reason. My main dislikes were how they treated their own male staff on nights. The night shift female supervisors are trash and lazy. No one wants to do their job. If you're short staffed, you'll just be short staffed on nights because admin are not going to waste their time coming to sit (although at most facilities that's what they do). This place isn't worth having your license on the line for. They will try and get agency fired

I have called this facility four times and left messages with someone in admissions to return my call as I am in desperate need to get some form of treatment. My counselor referred me to this place and there is no way I would ever consider coming here because of the lack of being able to return a phone call to advise somone on their admissions process. I can't speak personally to the care they give, but if it's anything like their office staff then I am sure it's quite sad.

I was there in 88-89 in Unit 8 which was the adolescent unit. Most of the staff were power hungry. The place was haunted. That 3 months was the worst three months of my life. Parents do not take your kids there unless it is a last resort. This place was terrible. I'm sure with the budget cuts and everything else going on now it is even worst than back then.

My granddaughter Priscilla Moreci is in the mental health hospital and they won't tell me anything about her or let me talk to her so I say don't bring your children here it is not safe. If you need help find a nother place to take them please. I don't want to see a nother child lost like my grand daughter Priscilla they don't know what they are doing because they don't know how to Communicate with each other at this place.
