Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehabs are designed principally for clients who require intensive supervision and support, including clients who have just completed detox, clients in early recovery, and clients at an elevated risk of relapse. Inpatient treatment helps clients stabilize following detox and prepares them to step-down into outpatient and/or community-based care. Clients reside at the facility for the duration of their program and engage in extensive addiction counseling and education. Many programs also offer evidence-based complementary therapies.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients receiving support in a rehab aftercare program typically have abstained from drugs or alcohol for a period of weeks or months and have completed high-level (often inpatient) treatment. Drug rehab aftercare is designed to support clients in maintaining their sobriety as they re-engage with their ordinary lives at home, in the workplace, and in the community. Services are highly individualized and evolve with clients' changing needs, but generally include peer coaching and relapse prevention.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

The goal of a drug intervention in Tennessee is to encourage a person with a substance use disorder to enter treatment. The process also educates family members about addiction, enabling behaviors, and treatment options. The involvement of intervention services can help with this education and provide guidance for the intervention itself and follow-up care. The professional interventionist will work with the entire family to encourage the best outcomes possible from the intervention.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

To keep you safe and comfortable during the detoxification process, a medically assisted detox provides you with a team of medical professionals who can provide the necessary medications to treat any potential withdrawal symptoms. Suddenly stopping chronic abuse of substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids can have uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

When your day-to-day life is taken over by drug use, this is known as substance use disorder. If you abruptly stop using your drug of choice, you experience withdrawal symptoms. To overcome this cycle, professional drug rehab in Tennessee is usually needed.

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

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.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

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.

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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

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.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

While engaged in couples therapy in Tennessee, you'll learn how to trust, communicate, forgive, and manage emotions. Developing these skills can be beneficial at any time during the relationship, but they are particularly crucial when facing life challenges.

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.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

To quit smoking, you can use nicotine replacement therapy and gradually reduce the amount of nicotine you consume. This allows your brain and body to adjust so you can reach your goal of breaking free from cigarettes in just a few weeks.

I want to start by saying that if it wasn't for Cherokee health, there'd be no way I'd be paying to go to a doctor. I try to stay healthy but we can't control everything. Even working full time The health insurance offered is too expensive and catastrophic in terms of deductibles. Having the sliding scale at Cherokee not only allows me to see the doctor for a reasonable price but also get discounts on medication through their pharmacy.You would think that with a government granted doctor's office that you would get a lot of the lowest common denominators of people but that is far from the truth. I don't know if I've met a more helpful handful of ladies than I did today at the Cherokee office in Seymour. They don't need to go out of their way but yet they did and I appreciate them for everything they do.I understand that getting set up here can be a little bit of a hassle and you may have to do a few extra steps to secure an appointment same day but it's supremely discounted. Anyone who complains in my opinion must be pretty entitled or come from a place where health care was pretty fluid and available without hurdles.

My first appointment attempting to establish a primary care MD.. when I got to my appointment I realized id been scheduled to have an appointment with a computer screen, there was no actual doctor in the building. I was very upset but I rescheduled with a different doctor only to discover she's not an MD she's a nurse. Just be aware they're not very professional and lack communication with patients. Ask all the questions so you don't waste your time and end up back at square one like me.

Sara Propst is a terrible provider that knows absolutely nothing about real trauma and more than likely will re traumatize anyone who experienced terrible abuse, as Cherokee Health Systems clinicians from the top down would rather protect their egos by telling themselves the client was resistant to treatment, which is why they abruptly stop instead of acknowledging the client was asking for longer sessions and more frequent appointments that are not two to three weeks out, as 30-minute sessions serve absolutely no purpose to anyone unless you just want to be heard. How it s legal to give such short sessions to people with severe mental troubles in the state of Tennessee is beyond me. If you see a Cherokee Health clinician once every two weeks for a 30-minute session, you are going to see them for a total of 12 hours a year. You will not build trust with them in that time frame if you experience real trauma, so I recommend you go somewhere else.Update after receiving this response on Monday, January 22, 2024. We sincerely apologize for your recent experience with us. Providing high-quality, patient-centered care is our utmost priority, and we're sorry that your visit with us did not reflect this. We're looking into this situation internally and hope to solve matters promptly and accurately. We hope you can give us another chance to make things right.Sincerely,Cherokee Health Systems I will not accept any copy-and-paste apologies regarding the care I received from Cherokee Health System because they do not make up for the years of subpar treatment I received or the time I lost waiting for brief sessions that, in retrospect, felt more like a checklist when I was in actual need of quality care and asked for it.Update after receiving this letter on Thursday, February 1, 2024.They make one statement: while they respond to reviews and undertake public relations, their private correspondence is their true character.
