I was there for 2 months and one of the new staff was forced to quit because he was being a creep towards the teens and I was one of them. Not the best place to be at, they put the people who have mental health problems with the girls who get physical. Like fighting, I had to press charges against three girls there because they jumped me and my friend, and split my lip open. The staff there are ok but they can be total jerks for no reason.

Can't speak for inpatient because I've never been inpatient here, but the PHP and dual diagnosis program was well enough. Shout out to Jess and Shandy for being good therapists.

Accepted Insurance

Reno Behavioral Healthcare Hospital works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Aetna

Blue Cross Blue Shield

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.

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

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

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

Clients receiving addiction treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) typically have completed inpatient rehab or have chosen to forgo hospitalization following detox. The high-level care provided by intensive outpatient rehabs is particularly suited to clients in early recovery, those in crisis, and those at an elevated relapse risk. Clients engage in nine to 20 hours of treatment per week on average. Common services include psychotherapy, recovery education, holistic therapies, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Teen Program

Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.

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.

Program For Men

Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.

Program For Women

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

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

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

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.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

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 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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

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.

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.

The most cruel and inhumane treatment I've ever seen! I went in with depression and anxiety. I was there 6 days and came out a vegetable. If you are suffering any kind of mental health, PLEASE stay away from this place! If I can help one person I feel I have done something for someone. They just go through the motions for their pay. There is absolutely no compassion at all. This morning I was told my blood pressure was high, so I thought maybe I should stay one more day. The nurse actually said to me "that's okay, we are not here for medical problems, just mental health". At that point I felt helpless and used for my insurance. That's all I was, a piece of meat with insurance. They don't care about you at all! DO NOT GO THERE!!!! Mike 10/12/24

3 hours to get told they have no beds. 3 hours of my 14-year-old, suicidal stepson waiting to get assessed only to be told they have no beds and to go to Renown. I get they have no control over having no beds, but my stepson could have had a bed at Renown if RHB communicated, like, at all. A simple question of "do you have a plan to kill yourself?" At check-in could have avoided this whole situation of a 3 hour wait. COMMUNICATE. 14 years old with a lifelong condition and this is the best you can do? 3 hours in depression time is a lifetime. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Thank you for the feedback. We will review this with our Intake team.

I got out of inpatient care today and although there was one negative occurance between one of the staff members and a patient, I got the proper care I needed and the majority (pretty much all) of the staff are amazing people. The food is good as well! Another thing that happened is they never brought me my 2nd batch of clothes that my family brought in, but there's nothing I can do about that. At the end of the day, I got good medical treatment and I'm very pleased. I give a massive thanks to everyone who helped me!!

Thank you for the thoughtful review. Thanks,

RBH saved my life on numerous occasions. They are human, with flaws all unique to their ages, conditions, and prior experience.The inpatient hospitalization teaches acclimating to a group of people that all had episodes unique to the timeline of others in the unit assigned.Outpatient program teaches committing to goals and further recovery, while allowing space to work on personal matters. They offer references to all walks of life, and the business office is quite willing to help those who wish to help themselves.The biggest thing to consider when working with the staff "why would any person think to go in to that field if; they didn't have prior experience with mental health of their own, a close relative, or another relation?"I have seen first hand the impact (positive and negative) those spaces can have on people. Currently, they are highly understaffed and overworked. Maybe giving them some grace is enough, or maybe it's not the fit for you. I will once again reiterate THIS HOSPITAL SAVED MY LIFE.If you or a loved one is suffering from a mental health condition, relapse, or other issue; it might be the best place to go. If finances are an issue, 988 offers peer support in times of crisis.Many thanks, Much love, Mindfulness,;;;;;;;

This place is not a place of healing. They strip you up almost all of your belongings you cannot even have a comfort blanket. On top of that even if you cut the strings out of your hoodie you can t keep that either because God forbid I m gonna hang myself with a hoodie. They treat you like you re a criminal it s humiliating and degrading. After they take all of your personal stuff you re then forced wait in the waiting room for hours. Finally, when they get you a bed which is a generous term because it was harder than a rock you walk into a room that is devoid of any life or color where they provide you with a stinky blue knit blanket and stained sheets. I went in for detox and quickly realized I made a mistake. I had to ask multiple times to leave and most of those times I was brushed off until I stood my ground. If you need to detox off of alcohol or substances do not do it at RBH. You are better off going to an emergency room or doing it at home where at least you can have some comfort and dignity.

the quality of stay really depends on if you get lucky with the unit and staff. some of the techs are amazing people others arent but my main gripe is the system as a whole. it isnt therapy. its just to monitor you so you dont off yourself and maybe send you back if you re obedient enough or beg enough. and the admission process is horrible. after the questioning is done (which that alone can take an hour or more) ive been made to sit there for hours with nothing. i didnt have trauma responses before going there but i do now. its just cold. rememebering it feels so cold. my last admission was November 2022 and ive been admitted id say around 7 times. if its your last option for either yourself or loved ones, this place can help. i know people who were truly helped here and this is just my experience out of many.
