Some reviewers note negative interactions with other dysregulated clients residing nearby, though ratings on the staff were high across the board.

outpatient iconOutpatient

Clients seeking care in an outpatient rehab are often stepping down from intensive inpatient treatment or have chosen to remain in their home while in treatment. Outpatient programs offer a variety of services to provide clients with a full continuum of care. Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs are high frequency and intensity services for clients who require robust structure, supervision, and support. Outpatient treatment typically consists of psychotherapy, recovery education, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

They allow clients to focus on their sobriety safe from outside distractions, stressors, and addiction triggers. Clients reside at the treatment center for the length of their program, where they receive extensive addiction counseling, including individual, group, and family therapy. Many programs also offer robust life skills training and holistic therapies, such as meditation.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

The safest way to remove addictive substances from your body after you've become physically dependent is through a medically assisted detox. Usually performed in an inpatient setting, a team of licensed medical professionals are tasked with monitoring your health and helping to minimize the risks and physical discomfort caused by withdrawal symptoms. Medically assisted detox is often the first step in the recovery process. After your body is safely free of substances, you'll likely transition to an inpatient treatment program to continue your recovery.

The staff here is rude and lacks compassion. I left worse than when I first came here. They are running a very incompetent and dysfunctional facility.

My grandson was transfered from Red Rock to Griffin without notification to any of family. We never got any knowledge of what medicines he was given. They kept changing his discharge date, he would get excited about getting out to fine out they pushed it further. Which made him super depressed. This happen 3 times. I had enough so called the patient advocate and he finally got released. He was worse shape then when admitted. Went to new Psyc. And we couldn't tell him what injection they had given him.we never even knew any Dr name there. He is out for about a month now and still delusional. And has fainting spells. Never ever have your loved one be admitted to these two places especially Griffin!

My son was there needing schizophrenia help after the rehabilitation from drinking beer but didn't get any kind of mental health care at all..Then they want to take all his check for no help at all.This is the worst state in all the 4 states I have had my son put in .There corporate people should be ashamed of the way this institution is handled..It took 3 months in Texas to get my sons schizophrenia in tact and here they don't want to mess with your life since I am the one that has to worry about what might happen if he was to have a schizophrenic episode.I want to be sure this is shared with the hospital staff and come to their right mind that everything doesn't have to do with drinking and drugs ,some are sick without it so learning to identify this is to hard evidently. My don needs to be admitted again just like the court orders were wrote..But this time taken care of the professional way,unless they don't know of any..P.S. I don't care about the response to this review from the hospital. At 70 experience with the program I have plenty.

They literally saved my life. If it wasn't for them I would have checked out of life a long time ago. I have never been to a mental health place before but I'm happy I chose them to go to.

My significant other was put inpatient at this facility about a week ago now and I still haven't heard an update on how he is doing. I am his power of attorney due to his medical issues that he has along with his mental health concerns. Me as the significant I would like to know how how part of my every day life/family is doing. This is unusual activity for him not to call me at all while he is in a hospital. I have no clue what is going on or what has happened to him. I wouldn't refer anyone to this facility anymore! This is so horrible worrying to death that you don't know how your loved one is doing with treatment.

Don't recommend unless you have no other options. I still think about the trauma I went through at this faculty. At the most vulnerable point in my life. One of my first days a guy ran at a group of us girls naked hallucinating. Then made it to the women's unit where he was tackled again naked. I did not feel safe as a SA victim. It took them days to finally move him. I witnessed multiple fights which were really triggering to me. I was also hit accidentally by being too close to someone that decided they wanted to fight someone right next to me. Not once did I received therapy. I was given a social worker who I only spoke to once. I was given a load of meds. There were some amazing techs that did really care. others who said remember why your in here . The women passing the meds also lied about giving me my birth control and showed me the book that said I got it. Which I know some people forget, but it was my first day I knew I didn't take it because I was bleeding heavily and I have pcos and pcs. so I was having terrible cramps we were only allowed to use pads. there is no schedules to encourage patients. The food is cold and i had hair in mine. The heater is old and doesn't work well. i was freezing the entire time. there's little to no funding in this place so it explains, but doesn't make it okay. i decided to write this this review, because one of the friends I made while in this facility lost there battle recently. I can't help but think the system failed.
