Drug Rehab Centers in Norma, New Jersey

DEEPEST CONDOLENCES for DR. SAMUEL KOTOH, Please restpeacefully. His professionalism, dedication, and attentiveness to his patients will be sorely missed.* His experience was 1000 stars as a Primary care Physician

This is for all the negative reviews Towards the Hendricks house.Those people saying "don't send anyone u care about to that facility. These people are only whining bc when they were there the staff probably didn't let them do whatever they wanted to do, those people had no idea that in order to change you MUST CHANGE!!!!!!!!And as far as them putting people out for whatever reason, I'm pretty sure none of them were children, and last time I checked adults are more than capable of finding their way home.Hendricks House gave me my life back....You will NEVER get out of u'r current situation with the same thinking that got u there....you are where you are right this very moment from every choice you have made. If you don't like where you are right now then there is only ONE thing to do..... MAKE BETTER CHOICES... Listen to the little voice in u'r head, he/she is NEVER WRONG

Although sending my loved one to treatment is never easy, I found Daytop Staff to be patience and helpful. The therapist, Case Management staff and the Clinical Director were very professional and helpful. During my son's stay we participated in the family association and this support was very helpful. In the end it takes a team of good people to make recovery work and I feel that Daytop Staff helped not only my son but us as a whole. When I see reviews I get worried and was able to take a tour and se the program for myself. I am glad I selectee Daytop for my child and am pleased to report he is doing well.

Really helped get meds right n therapy. Had lots of problems n when everyone else kicked me out or gave up they took me as a patient. Also was in a horrible situations with lies being used against me for months, court n this the only place that got all the papers i needed n saved me from having a permanent guardianship. Also after being told for years I can t handle 99% of work/ more then few hours a week n should be on welfare rest of my life I said I was so miserable sick of being dirt poor they told me work as many hours I get like I used to n it feels good having bread something to keep me busy n not do bad n everything else got better. They treat all mental disorders and are clozapine certified low reviews AINT right sound like people who demanding everything or rude/psychotic coming from experience in health care

you guys treated me with the uptmost respect even though my condition might be different, as a non-practicing but nursing experienced student i myself would personally see no patient any different as any other sick patient only that the condition has to be treated properly. the other place i went to wouldn't listen and i got bounced back and forth not once but twice in one night and you guys finally just said here we'll take you. you quite frankly saved my life and treated me with no disrespect and also went above and beyond with testing and made sure i was comfortable. i would reccomend this hospital over virtua (the layers get worse depending on which location), coooper (might as well retire) or vorhees. the staff are very caring and will listen and help you as much as they can.

My experience with Ms. Nazario has helped me clarify issues that have changed my life. I have recommended her services to several friends. She is compassionate and kind.

Great place for recovery! They have child care if you need it and possible transportation. They also have services for domestic violence. I wish I would have came sooner. Best counseling I've ever gotten. If you need help I highly recommend them.

The front desk ladies were so kind and helpful. The case manager (I think that s who she was lol) was so helpful and understand. Also Dr.A was very easy to talk to and even with my situation he still commended me for my part in my recovery.

Transferring from the Camden Clinic, my first initial visit, I have to say that overall I had an Excellent Visit! Everyone was very Friendly, Caring and very Professional! I was very happy with my transfer! Looking forward coming back!

People who end up here usually have a traumatized, abused "base" of a brain. I have been dealing with drug induced Schizoaffective disorder bipolar type with PTSD since 2011 and I've had my fair share of hospitalizations throughout NJ. I've also tried different remedies for mental health including TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation), neurofeedback, Ketamine, talk therapy, etc and this place is just another manifestation of the need to treat people who are non-violent but on the brink of being a threat. I was at Northbrook maybe 5-6 times throughout my mental health career and each time is pretty much rigorously consistent. The place is riddled with preventative measures against hurting yourself or others and although it is locked down pretty heavily, there are a few things that are implemented to address most patients becoming stir crazy, including going outside every day twice a day. I will say the food is highly processed and mostly unhealthy. I've stayed at other places that have more nutritional meals where I didn't gain 40 pounds like I did at Northbrook. The staff is mostly composed of techs whose sole job it is to hold down patients if they're demonstrating even the least bit of instability. You have to realize that this place is pretty old, so the staff is worn out and deals with irrational, incoherent, and drug abused patients. They are human too and more than likely a lot of them are themselves on medication for anxiety and various other mental health states. That's how much they believe in medicine and therapy is that they themselves will take part in it. However, with that being said I do feel like this place can improve in several different aspects. Food and nutrition being one of them, but also implementing different treatments such as neurofeedback. I spent over $10,000 (money I got from a lawsuit related to my illness) on neurofeedback. That's 120 sessions of a therapy that is designed to treat ADHD, mood, autism, and addiction. My IQ has also gone up by over 10 points and I'm going back to school for my masters degree in computer engineering. This place has potential to be better than it is, but like I said, the people here don't have a solid "base" of a brain. Neurofeedback addresses this core cognition and makes it so that underlying irrationalities such as fears, jealousies, angers, and other types of anxieties are polished and smoothened out. If Northbrook and other mental health hospitals implemented a more modern, digital-aged approach to treatments such as neurofeedback, people would actually give this place good reviews. The logistics of having unstable patients who might not comply with the technicalities of neurofeedback would have to be ironed out. Other than that Northbrook is shaped by the people that are hospitalized there, hence the rap music preferences during group art and music therapies. Patients have been traumatized and are struggling with their core cognition that I don't think the obvious medication solely addresses. I will say that the art therapists, music therapists, addiction therapists, psychiatrists, doctors and the higher level staff are all mentally healthy and provide good counseling, advice, and are generally friendly and helpful. But a lot of patients here are addicted to drugs, have unstable homes, if at all, are homeless, and are generally socioeconomically disadvantaged. There are only so many things staff can do before the demands and attitudes of the patients become intolerable. If you're nice, they're nice. 3-4 weeks of inpatient stay is uncomfortable. I called it Hell Week for a reason. No disrespect to the Navy Seals, but mostly your stay is shaped by the actual patients. Not the staff. There are some seriously messed up cases that come to Northbrook, so the overall stigma and reputation that a patient gets is, admittedly negative. Patients are generally treated the same with utmost caution and to the highest level of preventative measures. This is why it gets so many negative reviews.
