PCN is like any other place, its up to you. You make it what you want it to be. If you are negative and have not learned patience, evething will be boring or not worth going. Not just PCN but every other facility will be the same. On the other positivity, being focused and actually listen to what is being said at class and learn from it, PCN IS TOP DOG MY FRIENDS. So the beds are not California king or you are not being fed 6 course meals every day, but I can tell you staff, counselor and all employees try there very best to make you feel comfortably with the program and to assist and support in any way we can. All you have to do is try.

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.

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

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

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.

Effective drug rehab in Washington integrates care for the whole person, offering comprehensive solutions to addiction. Treatment methods address mental, physical, and relational aspects of 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 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.

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.
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.
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.

Clinical Services

Often, substance use disorder originates with negative thinking patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy in Washington is designed to help individuals change these patterns of thought, which leads to changes in behavior and freedom from addiction.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a highly structured form of therapy that teaches skills to help participants change negative thoughts and behaviors. Applying a philosophy of acceptance and change, you'll learn and practice these skills to break unhealthy patterns and establish healthy ones.

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.

The advantage of nicotine replacement therapy in Washington is the absence of the many harmful chemicals that are present in cigarette smoke. These products supply the nicotine only, so you don't suffer from extreme withdrawal and can feel more comfortable as you quit smoking.

I felt the people working here are completely close minded, they don't know how to treat patients with something as delicate as an addiction.

I was myself a patient at this place from late July to mid September. From the first day, the staff were not only friendly...and I can name them all by name, and point out every one of their special qualities..but the point of my review is to praise all the staff for their team work, not individual work..but an ability to maintain the peace, despite attitudes of different individuals, and provide a safe and comprehensive atmosphere to begin a new life, not simply sober...but a better person while being sober. The place is amazing.

My son was heavily addicted to Heroin. He went here and it saved his life! He was headed down a path of destruction. In the first few days, he wanted to leave but a couple of friends in there talked him into staying a little bit longer. I'm so glad they did! He is a totally different person than the one that went in. I'm so proud of him! He's been clean 4 years now and is doing great!At the time (2017) this was the only place that offered inpatient treatment for Medicaid insurance. Thank you Pioneer Center North for being there.

Like all treatment centers, your outcome and experience will depend on your attitude and how much work you are willing to do on yourself. I'll admit that when I first arrived I was skeptical, however I came straight out of a federal detention center so I was happy that I would be allowed to smoke and wear my own clothes and have my own bedding. The food, I thought, was great compared to prison food. Plus the facility was coed, and I'll admit that seeing a man that close was refreshing.One of the counselors told us that this facility is like the bottom barrel of drug treatment centers, it's definitely not Passages Malibu.But if you are coming from jail or from living on the streets, ill guarantee you will find this place much better. I made some really good friends here, and I'm not the type to bond with other women easily. I went here in 2012, and I still speak to those women, almost 9 years later. I'm happy to say that they are still sober, so this place works if you work the program. Like I said, it's much better than jail and for many of us, it's the last stop before prison or death. One time, while I was there, a girl snuck in heroin...her BF brought it during a visit. She foolishly shared her drugs with her roommate, they shot up in the bathroom right before dinner. However her roommate wasn't used to the drug and overdosed right there in the courtyard while we were sitting down to dinner. She basically died, we watched the medics give her CPR as we ate. It was surreal and sad. They were able to bring her around, and she went to the ER to get stabilized. The girl who snuck in drugs was kicked out, and they let the girl who overdosed come back to the program after a vote amongst us women. Frankly, even my own friends and roommates snuck in drugs, but I kept my nose clean because I was on federal probation and would get a long sentence if I didn't complete treatment. It's a choice...you can make the most of your time there or you can screw off. I went to PCN in the summer, and I really had a blast. They have a courtyard with a volleyball court, and we played with the men (although they don't allow much fraternization) or they have a little path where you can walk or jog. Make sure you bring an MP3 to listen to music on. Obviously you can't use your phone. Having an MP3 saved me, it's nice to have headphones so you can block all of the catty chattering out. Music is a great recovery tool.They have a dress code, but you can wear your own clothes. They also have a commissary where you can buy extra snacks, but it's expensive. When I went there, they had a payphone for personal calls. They also had a lot of activities, such as crafts and nail painting, volleyball tournaments, softball, walks to the nearby creek and AA/NA meetings. The property is huge, beautiful In the summer. In the warmer months they will organize outings, such as a trip to Deception Pass or a big AA BBQ in town. We went to the beach a few times and the staff would often stop at a restaurant where we could buy things, if we had money on your books. I recommend that you take as much as you can with you, so you'll be able to get the extras on your outings or for commissary. You can also bring cigarettes and have them mailed in. You will need to bring your own hygiene items and bedding.As for the staff, I don't recall that any of them were that terrible. As with anything, sometimes you click with a person and sometimes you don't. If you don't cause trouble and mind your own business and work the program then they will leave you alone.My counselor was great and gave me a great report to my probation officer. This facility had its share of problems but hey....it's better than jail. There is also an opportunity to work, if you are low on cash. They paid minimum wage, and it was just jobs like cleaning the bathrooms or dining area.

There is some nice staff here, but the living conditions aren't so good. They don't really do anything about us freezing in our rooms. But my problem was that some of the staff need to do better at atleast TRYING to not act disgusted when you talk about things that have happened to you as an addict. Particularly a nurse that came outside to ask me questions and she judged me pretty hard when I was answering her

This place does the absolute best with what they have I guarantee it. I have been here a few times and it never worked for me, this time (11/12-12/14) I really wanted to stay clean and they helped me get where I needed to go. They got me into a really nice clean & sober house, they helped me setup all my necessary appointments, and they set me up with after care. Like anything else your time in a closed environment depends on your additude, I thought positive and stayed grateful that this place existed to help people like myself. My counsiler and case worker were pretty awesome and helped me as much as they could. Everyone whome I lived with were really nice and supportive, and if there are people who aren't you can just stay away from them. Of course there is a little drama, but what do you expect from around 60 drug addicts living together? The respect we all showed each other was pretty amazing in my opinion. The food isn't great, considering this is an all expense paid treatment I think it's pretty decent, and considering I ate every other day before I got there I was pretty grateful to get what I got. I never take this much time to review anything but I would hate to see someone turn down a treatment center because bad reviews. I was a homeless heroin addict for over 10 years, I have been to jail many times and have around 6 felony charges, I'm saying this because I honestly believe if I can change, absolutely anyone can. Please give yourself a chance and if your offered treatment at PCN, take it. It may not be Passges Malibu but it's a place full of good people who want to see you change your life!Much love, Evan Schreiber.

If ir good at manipulation this is where you want to be. The staff is extremely easy to manipulate and they will even lie to ur family what joke this place is! If you want to get clean dont go here!

ZERO STARS - Sad excuse for a treatment program. No program even exists here! It s jail with your own clothes & cigarettes. No therapy, no lessons, no schedule, no rules. If your just looking for a place to chill, not actually work on yourself, going to fulfill a court order - this is your place! Otherwise, argue with your treatment coordinator that you refuse to go here it s a waste of your time! Give yourself a real chance if your in the mindset and go anywhere else!
