Waited 7 hours in the waiting room on 7/26/24 and was discharged at 2am on the 27th. Fever chills and huge red painful swollen foot. I went to 3 walk ins before I went there and was told I needed a sonogram and to go immediately to the hospital as they only have xray. When I was finally seen the doctor touched my foot & said oh it's really hot and then proceeded to say it's cellulitis without any bloodwork or sonogram! I'm now home taking the antibiotics as was directed and no difference in anything 4th antibiotic in. I still have chills & then sweat profusely and have slept all day only up to take my medicine. This is the worse experience I've ever had with a hospital she basically guessed what I have and now my other foot is becoming sore as well. I don't want to go back and pay another $300 dollars for something they should have figured out already. I have an appointment with my pcp tomorrow to see what's going on.It's now 8/28/24 and had to go see my pcp and more $$ was told I'm on the wrong medication for what I have so more $$$$$ and my foot was much worse today then when I first went. Hopefully I'll be able to eat this week all my $$$ went to Miriam!! The worst ER experience ever!

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

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.

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
Clients in inpatient rehab benefit from a highly structured and supportive environment away from the stressors that can trigger or exacerbate addiction. Inpatient treatment is designed primarily for clients in early recovery or at an increased risk of relapse. They provide intensive clinical supervision and addiction counseling, which may include group and family therapy. Clients may also engage in extensive addiction education to support long-term sobriety. Many programs offer complementary therapies, including art and animal therapy.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) support clients' long-term sobriety and their successful reintegration into the community through high-level services that evolve with clients' changing needs. The intensity and frequency of treatment decrease as clients stabilize, but most IOP programs involve between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly. Intensive outpatient rehabs specialize in an array of services, including psychotherapy, medication assisted treatment (MAT), addiction and recovery education, and holistic care, such as massage and biofeedback.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
The best course of treatment to achieve recovery starts with 24-hour clinical care in Rhode Island. Here, you can undergo medically managed detox, where medical staff can monitor your health and progress. You'll receive constant supervision and medication treatment to ensure withdrawal symptoms do not become severe or pose health risks. Once stabilized, you'll move from the clinical setting to less intensive treatment for ongoing recovery.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
In medically assisted detox, a team of medical professionals will be on hand 24/7 as your body is detoxing from addictive substances. As a result, you may experience physical and psychological side effects, such as mood swings, anxiety, nausea, or flu-like symptoms to help alleviate potential withdrawal symptoms, and keep you as safe and comfortable throughout this process.

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 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.
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.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

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.

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.

During motivational interviewing, you and your therapist will collaborate to work through four key pillars of this treatment: engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning. This process will allow you to share your perspective, decide on the purpose of treatment, explore your ideas and motivations for change, and plan how you can achieve any changes you want to make.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

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.

Life skills, also referred to as coping skills, cover three categories: cognitive skills, interpersonal skills, and emotional skills. By working on each of these areas during treatment, you'll develop the skills you need to navigate daily life in recovery

nutritional-therapy iconNutritional Therapy

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.

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.

They have preferences so it is better that you do not come because you will be poorly attended.

My mom was a recent patient at Miriam 89 years old on Wednesday afternoon they were ready to discharge her to a low rated rehab facility that our family didn't agree too, so I had to file an appeal, the next day they now have PT and OT in her room and have declared her no longer in need of rehab, clearly we lost the appeal but because Miriam changed her status in 12 hrs Medicare denied her request for rehab and I'm now taking her home today and my siblings and I will lose time from work to help with her care. Needless to say disgusted with this hospital and their care for my mom

My ER experience was a 3 but I will not let that affect EVERYTHING else that happened after . On October 5th 2024 I went in for my triglycerides because they were high. So bad that I'm still currently in the hospital Oct 18th 2024 . So far ALL the nurses have been great but out of my 2 weeks here 4 RN's have stand out the most Chabela 1st shift and Sal 2nd shift both in 2nd floor a step down from the ICU, Melissa (and her student Ari) and Heather 1st shift from 3rd floor east these 4 ladies stand out the most because not only are they professional and are on top of things BUT also caring like genuinely caring constantly asking if I need anything and are quick with things if you do need something. you can feel the compassion they have at least for my experience. I COMPLETELY recommend this hospital for anyone who is having any doubts about coming here . Everyone is professional here and remember to treat everyone with respect it really does come a long way. Stay Blessed

Hello Zack, we sincerely regret the wait time you experienced and the frustration this caused you. We notify patients when we expect they will face a long wait, but it is challenging to predict waiting times with complete accuracy as new patients with more severe conditions may arrive and cause further delays. We hope to provide a better experience for you in the future should you need us.

My girlfriend of 30 years goes in to have surgery on her leg. they go in from her arm which was not discussed until hours before surgery. In other words they change the plan at the last minute. Create a blood clot in her arm. So now she not only has the leg issue but now she has an arm issue as well. The next day after surgery they go in to remove blood clots in her arm which they created. She gets finished with surgery at 10:30 a.m. they did not get her in a room until after 4:00. Just to mention she wasn't allowed to have anything to eat or drink since midnight before I get there at 6:00 they still haven't given her anything to eat. I have to track down the nurse who's sitting on a computer typing and chatting with her coworker. Rather than tending to the needs of her patient. I am so fed up with the medical practice of this country at this point. I'm surprised there aren't more malpractice suits against this hospital for allowing this doctor to perform surgery which I was just informed by her vascular surgeon that her doctor wasn't even a surgeon. Forgot to mention he hasn't even returned to see how his patient is Seriously thinking it's time to go talk to malpractice attorney

Miriam Hospital team did a phenomenal overdeveloped job on my back. Dr. Diebo and his team did one of the most complex spine operations on my back. I needed a lot of care as I carry many other conditions in my body. Every stuck through, they were positive. Unbelievable job from Dr. Diebo, saved my life.
