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

Intensive Outpatient programs 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. The Intensive Outpatient Program gives patients the chance to participate in a structured treatment plan part-time while they transition back to home and work or other responsibilities.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

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.

This week I tried getting help at this place but was denied by the medical team without even boder doing an assessment first.

Matt Mirr

I would give this place 5 stars it's very nice but there is a nurse that doesn't belong there she is very spiteful and she didn't give me my medications for my pneumonia bc I only did detox. She is the tall skinny female, with short black hair, and with the plastic surgery in her chest. She did this to me when I went there for detox before, taking my gabapentin for neuropathy due to me breaking my neck, my muscle relaxers for the same reason, andy antidepressants. She is terrible, and spiteful for some reason. Beware of this nurse she is in residential. She isn't like the rest of the employees that are great. Especially Anthony the detox nurse hands down the best nurse I've ever had. I called and hope you can look into this. Thanks.

These people are not interested in your well-being. They are interested in the money. The first thing on their agenda is, "do you have insurance? We don't take Humana". You don't qualify".

Riverside Recovery saved my life and continues to every single day. As I leave this review, I am still participating in their aftercare programs & look forward to being an alumi. It's clean, it's safe, it has staff that can tackle truly any medical situation. They can help you detox safely and transition you to a wonderful residential atmosphere. The staff is made up of mostly fellow addicts and those who aren't one of us are still incredibly knowledgable and passionate about this community. I encountered some rough situations as a result of other clients who didn't have the right mindset, and the staff here did NOT miss a beat. They care so much about the healthy environment they create. The groups are phenomenal, the therapists are hands on and caring. The facility itself has ample food options, and a nutritionist on deck if you need specialized meals. Nursing staff is available 24/7. Landlines to make calls to your family. Family therapists who can genuinely help. Housekeeping staff that makes the place look immaculate. This facility is incredible, it really is. If you or a loved one needs a place to go to get help, this is the place. I cannot recommend Riverside enough, and I will be eternally grateful for the gift of recovery - thanks to Riverside!

This place worked for me. I am rounding the corner to 2 years sober. This is the longest I have gone with out drinking since I started as a teen. If it worked so far why only 3 stars.Well I don't agree with some of their methods and policies. Many of the classes and group therapies are little more than basic. Lots of silly dealing with basic emotions, things you might teach a child, though to be honest, I'm sure many did benefit from them. I will say that some of classes that explainedthe technical science of addiction and how different substances affect you were extremely enlightening and very interesting and helped alot. My biggest gripe would really have to be with the forced isolation from the outside worlds and aspects of your life that they almost purposely cut you off from. Many people including my self had business issues that needed our attention and they made it almost intentionally difficult to handle even the most simple things. Though the primary goal is recovery, your outside life does not pause and wait for you to get better. I had a lease to renew for my office location, another person needed to submit a renewal for their professional license, others had to handle some things for their continued employment. We all had to wait for clearance and then were given mire minutes to handle extremely important tasks. And all countless and staff acted like it's OK for your life out there to fall apart or none of it was important and you were just engaging in some sort of addict behavior.One could say you should have all your ducks in a row before you enter but for a lot of us a month to 40 days in rehab was not something we planned like a vacation it was something that needed to happen right then and there and the outside world doesn't wait for that.I will say the facility was very nice it was a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for the most part, though the staff did cause problems with handling things on the outside they were all extremely professional and for the most part extremely helpful they just don't give a crap about what's going on in the outside and unfortunately sometimes that stuff does not wait.

This place is disgusting . Yes it s nice inside , however I was physically sick and nursing staff refused to allow me to go the ED . Then finally she said I was allowed to go but only to ST . Joes hospital since they are contracted with them , I refused to go ST . Joes and chose my hospital TGH which is my patient rights . Staff told me they would sign me out AMA if I choose to go TGH. I proceeded to go to TGH my bp by EMS was 183/130 on arrival and I was escorted out literally told to leave staff brought my belongings to the door . Thank GOD I listened to my medical knowledge as upon arrival at TGH I was severely sick in which IV antibiotics had to infused followed by oral tablets. I was left sick upset and scared . All while RR kept claiming my symptoms were withdrawal but not medical . I had PID , since then they refuse to accept me back . The audacity of this place is disgusting. Money driven , the CEO cares nothing about the people, word in town people have told me of similar situations of discharging patients over minor issues.

I have no clue what you idiots are talking about who give this place a bad review. What do you think you're signing up for? It's an effing detox facility, and as most go it's one of the better ones, food's good and the help is amazing. If you think it's that bad just do it on your own. I know it's not the best advice but just stop being so critical!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Marney! We take great pride in our hospitality department and their ability to provide nutritious meals while also maintaining a spotless facility. - Jotham Fady, Director of Admissions
