About Marie Green Psychiatric Center

Marie Green Center is an inpatient psychiatric center for adults in Merced, California. Clients who stay here have just experienced some type of crisis or emergency, including mental health issues related to severe addictions. Here, they can find 24/7 medical support to help them stabilize and return to a more balanced state. The team can offer referrals to specialty care like addiction treatment if appropriate.

While staying at the center, clients may work one on one with a dedicated team of doctors and nurses. These medical experts will perform assessments to understand their condition and can create a treatment plan that meets their needs. The plan may include detox services, counseling services, medical care, or psychiatric evaluations. Once clients have stabilized, they may work with their team to step into a lower level of care, such as another nearby inpatient center or outpatient office.

While some former clients say the psychiatry team here is great, several others have shown concern over the experience and expertise of the team. They cite a lack of communication, understaffing, and a lack of recordkeeping among their concerns.

This place is under-trained, understaffed, and abusive to the people they keep locked up here. Whole facility needs to be updated, staff needs to be retrained or replaced, and food needs to be something edible. They caused my wife even more trauma with no help at all. Do not take people here, take them to a county or place that actually cares. They will only get mistreated if you put them here.

Location

Accepted Insurance

Marie Green Psychiatric 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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Addiction Treatments

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
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

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.
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.
hearing-impaired-program thumbnail image
Hearing Impaired Program
A sensory disability, such as hearing impairment, can compound the challenges of addiction recovery. Drug rehabs that are specially designed to accommodate the needs of persons with hearing impairments will include special accessibility features and accommodations to make treatment as comfortable and effective as possible. This may include access to American Sign Language interpreters.
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.

Clinical Services

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

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.

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.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

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.

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.

Gave my high functioning Autistic sister the Johnson and Johnson shot in March. They literally have no record of it. Not the health department either. So they gave her a shot and didn t even record it but I got the paper with the side effects when I picked her up, but no vaccine card. She needed it finally but they don t have any record of it! What the heck is going on in here. State Violation calling ombudsman Monday.

I never post reviews, but I have to say, I called twice in 3 weeks to ask questions about a place for a family member. I spoke to the same man both times. Both times he raised his voice at me. Today I called to ask a question, and he he was just below yelling at me. When I explained he misheard my question. He replied "No I did not. I heard exactly what you said!!" When I repeated my question, he did not apologize and was still very rude to me. If this had happened only the first time I called, I wouldn't be writing this, but he didn't remember me from three weeks ago and that tells me he is rude and not an active listener. It is very emotional and difficult when you are looking for help for a dear loved one. This person has no compassion and should not be working in this field.

If anybody knows anything about Mary greens please let me know .because that is the place that my daughter is at right now she's in the state of mind that she is incapable of making decisions for her self and for these people to say that she is 19 years old and she's an adult she can make decisions for herself I'm sorry but if you choose to go to a mental health then obviously you are not incapable of making decisions for yourself when I call today on May 7th 2018 at 9 a.m. I had asked them if my daughter was there they told me that they cannot tell me anything because she has not signed a release form all I'm asking if she is there so that I know that she is okay and I don't have to worry about her being on the streets .because previous to that I had spoke to a police officer and the police officer said that because she is 19 years old if she chooses to leave that there is nothing we can do about it why would you tell a person that is going through really bad suicidal depression something like that they will take full advantage of it and nobody will know what is going on with them so my suggestion is if you want to know anything about your family and if they're okay this will not be the place for them to go.

Despite the bad reviews and bad food the psychiatrist is great. She can be mean but she actually knows what she's doing. She won't drug you just because she wants things to be easier for her or fears losing her license. If you need counseling she'll refer you to counseling, if you do need meds, she'll give them to you.

This place is the worst garbage I have ever seen. They say they have 24 hour service. We had to bring some one to the crisis center at 4am. And the lady was instantly annoyed that we where making her do her job at 4am. The person we brought was unresponsive to questions and is very confused and doesn't keep up with conversations. She aggressively starts asking him. And when I went to tell her he won't answer, in the rudest way possible she snapped at me and said don't answer for him. And then she asked us why did you bring him in at 4am and every time we tried to answer she would inturupt and agressibly ask why bring him in at 4am?! And then promptly made me and the person that drove us wait outside. And the whole time while this was happening a 2nd woman was at her desk and she was talking loudly on the phone about other mental health patients and mentioning suicide and people hurting themselves and then laughing on the phone after saying some of these things as well it was extremely rude and was making the person we took to get care very uncomfortable. After we came back in the lady handling his case processes to ask us a ton of questions stating oh he won't answer any thing. She seemed nicer but still garbage. We went there to make it so he could chill out and talk to some one who would help. And she with out saying a single word to us hospitalized him. And at the time I thought ok maybe he really needs it. So they call an ambulance to take him to the hospital, again also very rude people, we simply asked where exactly do we go to meet him and we where once again met with annoyance for them to do their job. And the room they had us waiting in before the ambulance showed up was disgusting. Bugs every where. Holes in the walls, Exposed power outlets and a light that's so bright how could any one relax. Never go to this place, unless you want to be treated as less than human and if you want to be so infuriated about an already stressful time because people don't have a single ounce of caring in a profession where they should then by all mean go. Other wise do not go here.(Last note as well. We have been trying to find out where the hospitalized person was being held for the last 2 days legit nothing else but where have you taken him is he even in merced any more. And they refused to tell us saying he's an adult. He may be an adult but he has the mentality of a 5 year-old and can't make his own decisions or answer simple questions.)
