About Methodist Richardson Medical Center

The Methodist Richardson Medical Center Campus for Continuing Care is located in Richardson, Texas. They provide inpatient medical, emergency and behavioral health services for clients of all ages. There’s also a department for adolescents and adults in addiction recovery. They accept self pay and private insurance.

I like that their facility offers age specific programs so you can get targeted care. There are 30 beds in the adult treatment facility, which creates a strong staff to patient ratio. In addition to a separate addiction unit, there’s also a behavioral health unit just for seniors. If you’re facing a mental health crisis, they’ll help you stabilize in a highly structured setting.

Your physician will create a customized treatment plan based on your individual needs and recovery progress. During your time in the inpatient program, you’ll participate in medically supervised detox, group therapy and 12 Step meetings. They also provide relapse prevention training, family support and comprehensive discharge planning.

Levels of Care

Outpatient

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.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Inpatient

Methodist Richardson Medical Center offers short-term stabilization unit for psychiatric disorders and addiction, the unit serves patients 18 years of age and older. Individualized treatment plans are tailored to address the needs of each patient. Residents receive 24-hour clinical care and daily program structure.

Partial Hospitalization Program

The partial hospitalization program at Methodist Richardson Medical Center is a high level daytime care for patients with mental health conditions with primary mental health conditions. Services include group therapy, activities therapy, education about medication, nutrition and wellness, grief and loss counseling, family group and discharge planning.

12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Aftercare support groups are available for those who complete the chemical dependency inpatient program.

Treatment

Alcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug Addiction

During rehab in Texas, you'll deal with underlying issues that contribute to addiction. By addressing these challenges and learning healthy ways to cope with them, you'll develop strategies that help you live a drug-free lifestyle.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Family Therapy

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.

Group Therapy

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.

Individual Therapy

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.

Nutrition Therapy

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.

Recreational Therapy

Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.

The ER doctor was very nice, and made me feel a lot better about my situation, even though it was small.

I was denied care for a serious injury because the ER doctor did not want to see it as a medical emergency and I was told to my face by him that he would not intervene until I was septic. I was left to suffer for the next 4 days with no preventive care for infection and zero pain control. I became very ill and had to be seen at their main hospital off George Bush where I was admitted for sepsis and required same day surgery. This location (off Campbell) was very poorly run, unprofessional and lacked concern for safety. They put my life at risk and in jeopardy all because an ER doctor refused care. Please avoid this facility.

The behavioral section of the hospital is the epitome of negligence, suboptimal care, and deceit.Multiple patients have "eloped" (escaped) the supposedly "secure" portion of the floor. Patients have been regularly seen on the floor(s) below the behavioral floor. The escaping happens so often that all staff on all floors are told in advance that this occurs frequently, to be aware of it, and to notify security to take the patient(s) back to the behavioral floor.If you look through the other reviews for this place you will find more stories of patients that escaped down the elevators and into the lobby. Shockingly there were rumors of a patient who FULLY ESCAPED THE BUILDING and then got injured outside before being noticed and brought back.The staff reference policies that they themselves cannot provide any proof or validation of in any way, shape, or form.The behavioral hospital is a horrible place that I strongly recommend avoiding at all costs if you have any choice in the decision.

If I could have picked a 0 rating I would have. My son came out after 3 weeks worse than when he went in.

Took social worker 3 days to contact me. Had questions she never returned my call. Dr spent 5 min with the pt and never got to the bottom of the issues. The dr who I m not impressed with also, never called any family to find out what the true issues were. (Keep in mind that the dr isn t a full time employee at this hospital). Therapy was an absolute joke it was group therapy where they did crossword puzzles and name that tune. The nurses are incredibly rude. Stay away from this place. Period !!!! No help what so ever.

I took my daughter here because she was having chest pain and other symptoms. She is only 4 years old and we are from Houston so I was hesitant especially not knowing anything about Dallas area hospitals. I am extremely grateful and thankful for all the staff that attended us and listened to all of our concerns. They made sure to test my daughter for flu, COVID and strep and were extremely patient with her when they were doing the tests. When we left there my daughter told me she liked the nurses and doctor because they were nice.

Took the Dr's Recommendation at Methodist Richardson and admitted our daughter into the behavioral unit for detox. I guess we didn't realize that she would be in the same ward as people having psychotic episodes 24/7 - which was bad enough. The real issue was the staff repeatedly intentionally walking in on my daughter while changing and showering - after she specifically alerted them that she would be showering. My person opinion, keeping in mind that I don't know a lot about detox units, I would never allow a family member or friend to go here again. After repeated conversations to flag her chart to block her physically abusive significant other, they allowed phone contact even without the required patient info. Once when we were visiting, a patient actually eloped and made it down the elevators. I sincerely wish we had read the reviews ahead of time. There were several positive people on staff that were helpful, but they couldn't outweigh all of these trauma triggers.

I was almost killed at this hospital. Worst experience of my life. If you want to be overdosed on a dangerous drug without your permission do come here :)

My husband is very sick. He called for an appointment, and was told to wait on the car. We wanted for over an hour for a call. He left a message like they requested no one called. I went in to the office, and was told he was marked as a no show. They didn't bother to call him to check they didn't listen to his message. They said he didn't call. I was right there with him when he called. I had to go find out what was going on. The front desk people were rude, neglected that I was there. They just kept talking to each other. The girls I finally spoke with was rude raised her voice at me. I told them it was unacceptable. When they finally called. I asked how long he would have to wait. She told me to despence with the comments. The girl that finally talked to me was a young Hispanic girl. Either she needs more training or to be fired. I am so angry right now. It's all I can do not to go in there and be rude to them. I have never been to such a rude an office. NEVER! I am so happy I go to Baylor people there and efficient and never rude no one there has ever raised their voice to me. I wouldn't recommend the hospital to anyone at all or this doctor office.

The wait in the ER took forever, we spent 4 hours in a visit that should have taken only 10 min. my baby had a cut in his face and the surgeon didn't bother to come see him.
