About Copper Hills Youth Center

The Copper Hills Youth Center in West Jordan, Utah is a center that is dedicated to helping youth with substance abuse addictions overcome their conditions. This center primarily provides residential care and is committed to helping raise awareness and creating individualized treatment plans involving teaching coping skills.

Many who have attended the residential treatment program offered by the center have found it to be simple. After you pass through the Subtle Screening Inventory (SASSI) then you’ll gain access to treatment that is carefully chosen based on your needs. Your care plan will be tailored according to your condition and the level of care you require.

Most are placed in individual and group counseling and are treated by licensed clinicians. What makes this residential substance abuse treatment program unique is that you will need to do five core assignments during your stay. These assignments revolve around accountability, drug history, autobiography, thinking errors, relapse cycles and relapse prevention.

Your counselors will encourage you to share your completed assignments with your loved ones. This exercise helps your family members better understand what substance use includes and how they can support you in your sobriety journey.

In addition, if beneficial for your needs, you will also have the opportunity to enroll in the recreation therapy program. This program focuses on helping you through addiction and co-occurring conditions through spiritual, psychological, physical, social and cognitive care.

You should also know that the average stay is six to eight months. Boys and girls are separated to better adhere to specific needs.

Sister facility to Acadia Montana which was pretty bad I assume they do the same things here which includesSeclusion RoomsEmergency medication (Chlorpromazine Hcl) or something similar.Not a place for simple psychiatric needs.Please don t refer your kids unless they seriously need it.By admitting your kids you give consent to restraints no use if you fight you will be sedated (probably tackled first)They should pay more these places are very violent.FYI Utah has minimal regulations on these places so please don t get your self or your kids stuck in a place like it s gonna be a tough environment but I ve seen these places actually rehabilitate individuals who would other wise ended right up into the prison system.

Location

Accepted Insurance

Copper Hills Youth Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

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.

Treatments

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.

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

teen-program thumbnail image
Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
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.
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
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.
child-program thumbnail image
Child Program
The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's addiction.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
military-program thumbnail image
Military Program
Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

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.

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.

Life skills training helps you handle the daily obligations of work, school, and family. It rebuilds your self awareness and self confidence so you can face these challenges with healthy coping strategies rather than succumb to relapse.

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 helps you in your addiction recovery program by improving your overall well being. Activities can include sports, music, and nature excursions that give you positive experiences, reduce your cravings, and offer the opportunity to reduce your stress. These aid in your addiction recovery.

I was here 2018 to 2021. 2 years and 8 months. This was by far the worst residential ever. Chyc was always understaffed. Did the worst medication checks. I had a friend who overdosed and had a seizure and almost died because of there lack of staff and observation. Do not send your kids here. I entered at 13. Left at barely 16 years old. I am now 18. And still living trauma from this place. So short staffed. People would get beat up all the time. And staff would be jumped too. And the management did nothing about it. Oh and I definitely can t forget the way that they did unnecessary restraints. And would abuse you in the process. I wouldn t be fighting back, and they would throw me, slam me. It brought more trauma than I was taken in with. I will give a big thank you to Suzanne MC. The only person that would listen and give me advice that wasn t don t hurt yourself or you ll be punished. Thank you. And also. I would never recommend this place to anyone or there children.

This place is a living he'll DO NOT SEND YOU KIDS HERE there's fights the food is not that good, everytime I told someone how I felt I would get punished for it. I begged my mom to pull me out. Some staff don't care and the people I talked to there sucked. Alot of people killing themselves in the bathroom led me even more suicidal and wanting to self harm on the daily this place did not help me it made me worse. Thank you for your time reading this. This place was a detention center at the time.

This place is a disgrace and should be closed down by the state, our daughter was here and would tell us about rodents in the dining area, her therapist would try and pit the adults against each other. Everytime we visited our daughter she was a complete mess. Our daughter had some coping mechanisms that she had developed and she would be punished here for using them. When we asked questions we were brushed off as overreacting to the program. Our daughter was physically restrained by the staff members on her intake day. They said this never happened and that everything was video recorded yet when I asked to see the video they either couldn t locate it or just refused to let us see it. We eventually pulled our daughter from the program and they gave us no medication to go home with her so when we got her home she was a complete train wreck. They got our daughter started on meds and then denied those meds to her upon release. Thankfully we have a very caring family doctor that filled them for us. Also most of the clients here are bad kids who have been in trouble with the law.

DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE. My best friend who was sent to this place, Brian Miranda Rivera (who also made a review under Giana Danos, check his out if you want more Intel) has told me God awful experiences. A nurse selling drugs, caught, and being moved to another area of the facility as punishment , provided food being spoiled and causing food poisoning, a girl strangling herself in the morning one day, a nurse talking about political issues unnecessarily, and poor education. Oh, and most staff apparently don t like this place either. Understaffing is also another problem, 1 staff every group of 15? Seriously? Thinking NO chaos will arise? I only saw my friend 3 times during the 8 months of his stay. Thankfully, he was discharged, but turns out it was only because he was sent to another (way better) facility in California. I m glad he s okay, because I heard sometimes people turn out worse than they were before when discharged. In my opinion, this place should be shut down or renewed for the better. This facility does not have the right people and management to properly handle those who are sent there. I don t expect a copy-and-paste answer you give to those who made negative reviews, but I want others to read this as a sign to NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE. There s a overall 2.7 star review for a reason.

I was sent here around march in 2023 to November 2023 when I say that this treatment is the equivalent to putting your child in prison I mean it. One of my many experiences was having to witness a girl who had been strangling herself from around probably 6 in the morning to wake up time (so around 7 o clock) turning purple because the incompetent nocturnal / morning staff could not notice that she had grabbed a tie (or zipper I can t remember) and the children on the unit having to alert/ ( try to save the girl themselves) the one staff on the unit ( mind you the bare minimum staff that needs to be on the unit IS 3). The education program is all over the place. Up until I went to the higher level classes I had been essentially learning nothing and had lost most of my social skills and a lot of my academic skills, I m starting freshman year but now because of the lack of education I received from most of my stay here I have the math level of a sixth grader. But I m not done yet, although some people like the food there I don t think anyone could agree the food poisoning wasn t very good, spoiled milk for almost three months on end, I had actually gotten sick from it and had the worst week of pain vomiting constantly and having to go to the bathroom. Did I also mention reports of nursing dealing drugs to kids? That nurse had started on the upper girls units but then had to get sent to the lower floors to where the lower girls units were/ boys aswell because the girls on the upper floor had been calling them out and instead of firing them they just sent them to another area of the facility. This is the same place parents send their children for doing substance abuse but then turn around and condone the staff feeding the addiction and choose to ignore the problem by just letting it happen because they are too $$ hungry. Ironic isn t it? The only pleasure I had in this unforgiving hell was my unit staff, it s funny to think my unit was almost marketed as the best unit but only because we had staff that wouldn t give up on us. I had gotten to the second highest phase here and there was not one single atom of pleasure I got from it. I had gotten forced into submission, seeing my family only 3 times in the past 8 months I had been there. There was no reward for doing anything. My only relief was as soon as they announced I was leaving. I felt like a shell of who I used to be, I will never be the same again. There is no justification for anything that happens at businesses like these. Speak up for those who couldn t speak #breakingcodesilence - brian
