Went in with a spider bite and I was literally in and out in 30-45 min and I had to sit for 15 min after I got an antibiotic shot to make sure I did not have an allergic reaction. Very impressed with the service

In March I went by ambulance to Northwest Regional Hospital Winfield Alabama with COVID and pneumoniaI couldn't breathe I also have COPD and Asthma so I was in distressI had already been to my doctor and she had gave me some cough medicineI said I would never go back to this hospital after what happened to my son 12/24/2020He is the reason they have the new ERThis year I learned what really happened to him and I may get a lawyer but I was told they had new owners and were better but no they have most of the same staff and still have the doctors who forgot their oathFirst I would like to ask these doctors a question " Do you not know there is no more street marijuana it's gone!!!"We now have what is legal in all states you can get it at the local convenient store or tobacco store. It has 3% THC so I go there by ambulance and the doctor never came in but you can bet he ordered that drug screening and I had opioid in my system which was the cough medicine and i had traces of THC the delta 8 which i use for an appetite so he didn't treat me sent me homeI had to call the ambulance next night and they took me to amory Mississippi hospitalI was there 6 days and went home so in June I had to go to my doctor I was sick again pneumonia again but had just started so she put me in the hospital WinfieldI saw a different doctor who acted the same as the ER doctor as soon as he saw what the ER doctor had on me he ask if I did street drugs I said no so him thinking I'm a drug addict sent me home.What I had in my system was completely legal.The hospital may have different owners but same staff nothing has changedAlso in 2018 I went to the ER COPD and my granddaughter took me they brought me back gave me a breathing treatment and put oxygen on was there about 30 minutes and a cleaning lady came out of the bathroom and she kept looking at me while she straightened her poop cart mashing down garbage with her hands hanging her rags on the side putting her commode brushes in a certain place etc... My granddaughter whispered and said why does she keep looking at you then she went over to a cabinet where they keep the sterile stuff and got a cup down and brought it over to me and said go to the bathroom and get a sample cause the doctor is going to want it and she wasn't nice so she turned around and walked off so when the nurse came back in my room I told her about it and she said oh just don't pay her any attentionI'm thinking what??? She is in the sterile cabinet didn't wash her hands and I'm supposed to act like she didn't just do that.I could tell more but my son died because they put him in a room where nothing worked and he was having heat attack symptoms. The doctor said they coded him but it was not true the room was too neat.The nurse never went back in his room to check on him and he was alone for nearly 2 hours. That's why they have the new ER.I

Accepted Insurance

Northwest Regional Health 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.

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.

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.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) are designed for clients in early recovery and those at an elevated risk of relapse. Clients in IOP attend outpatient therapy sessions for a minimum of nine hours per week but clients may receive as many as 20 hours of IOP treatment weekly. Sessions generally occur in 3-5 hour blocks, in which time clients engage in some combination of medication assisted treatment (MAT), psychotherapy, recovery skills training, or complementary care.
aftercare iconAftercare
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
A drug intervention in Alabama is an organized attempt to convince someone they have a substance use issue and that they need treatment. During an intervention, loved ones share their concerns about the person's substance use and encourage them to get help. A professional can provide guidance and support for this effort through intervention services, to help participants avoid missteps and increase the success of the intervention.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides comprehensive treatment to those who do not require 24/7 monitoring and offers a higher level of care than outpatient programs. Often referred to as "day treatment" patients typically attend sessions a minimum of 20 hours weekly, allowing clients to return home each day. PHP treatment is often covered by insurance and can provide daily therapeutic sessions and services such as relapse prevention and medication management.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have medical support available around the clock, and 24-hour clinical care in Alabama offers a safe environment in which you can begin your recovery journey. This feature offers constant supervision in situations like medical detox, where a team of professionals are on hand to ensure the withdrawal processs is performed safely and comfortably.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Medically assisted detox is often the first step of addiction treatment. At the medical detox level of care, you are weaning your body off drugs and/or alcohol under the care of licensed medical professionals who constantly monitor your health and treat any potential withdrawal symptoms, sometimes with the aid of medication (like Suboxone or Vivitrol).

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.
military-program thumbnail image
Military Program
Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Clinical Services

The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy in Alabama is to lessen the symptoms of certain mental health conditions, including substance abuse and co occurring mental health disorders. It is known as one of the most effective means of treatment for these conditions.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a form of talk therapy designed to treat individuals who are experiencing intense emotions. It is often used in Alabama for the treatment of borderline personality disorder, substance use disorder, and other mental health conditions.

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.

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 are an essential part of addiction recovery. These skills help you succeed in day to day life and live independently. They fall into three main categories: interpersonal skills, thinking skills, and self awareness. Treatment involves developing these skills for a successful recovery.

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.

Recreational therapy in Alabama integrates sports, art, and outdoor adventures into drug and alcohol addiction treatment. This promotes physical, mental, and emotional health alongside improving social skills, offering a holistic approach to sobriety. Recreational therapy can help you rebuild your life within a supportive and engaging environment.

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.

Can't believe how dirty this place was! All of the staff I met were horrible, when I tried to explain my issues and how they were affecting my life I saw a lack of empathy on their faces. I ended up leaving and seeking treatment elsewhere.

They can't maintain a pediatric clinic. When I tried to schedule an appointment for my child, I'm sent to a ringing phone that is never answered, not is there a voicemail. What are these people really doing?

This place is worse than walker baptist, and I didn't think that was possible. This is after uab bought it. The nurses were great, the nurses. The doctors were as stupid as they come. I went in with severe chest pains, I was in afib. The treatment is shock therapy to shock the heart back into rhythm. They did nothing but a stress test. Said it was negative. But yet the shortness of breath, the weakness the dizziness persisted. They admitted me for one night for observation then sent me home, I'm now experiencing the everest chest pains again. The doctor that saw me in the ER, Indian guy can't remember his name didn't want to hear anything I said. He would ask a question then ask another before I could answer and only argued with me when I told him the medicine he had me on would not work because I had already been on it. This "barely a band aid station" needs to be shut down. They don't even have a cardiologist. If uab owns this joke of a medical facility shame on you uab. Do NOT go to northwest medical if you want treatment, you won't get it. You will die before you get proper treatment

My mother ( who is 85 years old and just finished up with 22 radiation treatments for cancer) fell this afternoon and was taken to the emergency room at about 3:45 PM. At about 6:15 PM she was finally taken to a room. Now at 7:00 PM no one has been in to see her yet. She can't move her left arm without a lot of pain. She is not here on a Friday night for pain medication like the other 6 people in the waiting room, but that is the way she is being treated. I hope the new CEO of the hospital sees this review. Well at 6.58 someone finally came in to her room. House keeping to empty the trash cans.

I recently has the privilege of having Dr. Beckman take care of some medical issues with my grandmother. She was fantastic and very patient with her, listened to her and ran some test on what she thought her problem could be. She found the problem and give her some meds to clear things up. My grandmother being a administrative RN over 30 years was very happy with Dr. Beckman and her bed-side manner and the way she explained what they would be doing. I m proud to have a hospital so close to my house that has a team of Doctors and nurses that we have that care about treating people and getting the better. The ER visit may be long or may be short just know if you have to wait the ER is probably packed and they are working as fast as they can to get to everyone. Winfield has a great group in the ER and With Dr. Hajjar on staff they can t be beat in this part of the country. I appreciated the care and time they took with my elderly grandparent.
