About Geisinger Community Medical Center

The Geisinger Behavioral Health Center Northeast is a specialized health facility for behavioral health care including drug and alcohol addiction. It’s an inpatient treatment center so you’ll live in the facility during your program.

At this treatment center they primarily offer addiction treatment for people who have co occurring disorders. That means you have drug or alcohol addiction as well as a mental health or behavioral health condition like depression or schizophrenia or PTSD.

What I find most interesting about this inpatient program is the varied and integrative approach they use. The therapists and specialists here will combine different treatment strategies to give you a one of a kind program. That includes tried and true methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and group counseling. It also includes more expressive and creative methods like art therapy and music therapy and even dance therapy.

It’s also important to note that they take an approach of trauma informed care. The team here understands that you may have trauma in your past and their treatment will be sensitive to this while also aiming to help you heal.

I was told that if I signed a paper while I was in ICU that I would be transferred to a part of the hospital that could help regulate my seizure medication better. I had been in ICU after having a severe seizure while home alone. While still confused from seizing I apparen ... Read More

My mother entered the emergency room by ambulance. They were great did what they had to do.. when she got to the e.r. they did a test and it didn't show any major problems, so we had to wait for the blood work. ( she was having chest pain). But the woman wouldn't come in the room because of the vomit on the floor. But the blood work did show it was her heart. And she was having a heart attack, once they knew what was going on everything flew from there. There was always at least two people in the room and outside the room, they were prepared for anything.. they did an amazing job. Now, if it wasn't for the blood lab technician we could have found out Sooner. But overall the e.r. staff did everything they could with the information they had. The Cath lab and Dr was amazing told us exactly what was going to be done and came out afterwards and told us what went on and showed us um himself where the problem was they also took real good care of my mother I am very thankful. For the staff at Gcmc except the blood lab technician she should be fired, you work in an emergency room..

Dr. Himanshu Kavani should be reviewed for falsify information and showing lack of concern for patients. He is very unprofessional. I would be concerned with him working in the medical field as he is very dishonest and extremely unprofessional. How are you discharging a patient with out reviewing test results or finding the root cause of their illness? To say you spoke with a patient and a discharge is suitable only clarifies you didn't listen when the patient expressed concerns for more testing. The mind blowing part is he refused to speak with patient face to face and was discharging a patient while driving home at the end of his shift. He clearly stated in a message to the nurse" I'm not in the facility, I'll call her via phone. Very bizarre and unprofessional. Day 3 and still no answers. This facility has taking a drastic turn and they have no concerns for your well being. Avoid this hospital at all cost!!

I've tried to take my son here for crisis twice, once after he gave me a black eye and yesterday when his psychiatrist referred us to get him admitted. The first time, we waited for 14 hours just to be sent home. Yesterday, we waited 8 hours and got blood work and had him pee in a cup just for the psychiatrist to call me that he was accepted for a bed only for the desk to say they "lost" him in the system and we would have to start the entire triage process over, new blood work, and that we would have to have their crisis redo the paperwork. This hospital is failing it's underage psychiatric patients and are making their lives harder.

I want to see if I can stay with my boyfriend while he went through surgery next week and can't get a hold of the hostipal there. I tried to get a hold of the social worker for a week with no response. I called the advocate line to complain, and they never called back. No wonder why my boyfriend doesn't want to go up there for surgery. Its causing me stress cause I can't stay there but then not sure what hotels are up by the hospital or even if they provide a discount to people, as we both don't live up there or familiar with the area there. It's causing me to much stress. It takes too long of a drive to come home and keep going back up there. I would rather stay there until I can bring him home cause I don't like to drive in that type of traffic going back and forth up there. I have really bad insomina also and not want to drive in the morning and rather walk there instead of driving and get in an accident to get there.
