About St. Luke’s University Hospital – Bethlehem Campus

St. Luke's Psychiatric Associates is a nonprofit health facility. They work with adults who are seeking help for addiction and behavioral health concerns. When you sign up, you'll have partial hospitalization and intensive and traditional outpatient options. You'll find 'em located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) exists between inpatient and residential treatment and traditional outpatient care. Clients spend most of the day in treatment at the facility and return home at night. This highly structured and intensive program is ideal for those with severe symptoms. It may include individual, group, and family counseling, relapse prevention, education groups, and relapse prevention training.

Intensive outpatient program (IOP), a step down from PHP, requires clients to meet at the facility on a regular schedule to participate in treatment. IOP typically meets less often and for shorter sessions. Clients can transition into IOP from a higher level of care, but that isn’t a requirement.

The standard outpatient program is the lowest level of outpatient care with the most flexible schedule. It typically meets less often and for shorter sessions than IOP. You’ll have more independence and opportunities to reconnect with your loved ones and community.

In all tracks, you can partake in counseling and medication management. They’ll help you find the right balance between taking prescriptions to control pain and cravings without becoming too dependent on them. That way, there’s less of a chance for a relapse.

The St. Luke University Health Network works with private insurance, but doesn’t list any accepted carriers like Anthem, Beacon, BlueCross BlueShield, and Cigna. Clients are urged to confirm coverage before enrolling, as out of network benefits may vary.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient rehabs specialize in providing comprehensive care for clients who choose to remain in their homes and communities during treatment. Their services may include transitional support for clients stepping down from intensive inpatient programming. Ambulatory medical detox may be provided for clients at low risk for withdrawal complications. Many programs include evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients who are working professionals or caregivers. Addiction counseling and life skills training are common treatment modalities.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services bring extensive experience to the planning and conducting of drug interventions in Pennsylvania. These experts can facilitate interventions in a sensitive manner that encourages positive outcomes. The goal of the intervention is to educate the individual about addiction and the consequences of their substance use and encourage them to get the treatment they need. Interventions can be effective with all types of drugs and alcohol addiction.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

Because the severity of withdrawal symptoms can fluctuate, constant monitoring under 24-hour clinical care in Pennsylvania is recommended for early recovery. As you undergo detox, medical staff will supervise your health and ensure severe symptoms do not develop or threaten your life. Professional counselors will also be available to treat mental and emotional health needs.

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 iconMental Health

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.

inpatient-file iconCognitive 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.

intervention iconGroup 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.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

family iconFamily Therapy

Family therapy teaches individual family members in Pennsylvania the benefits of collectively combating addiction. Therapists help individual members establish healthy boundaries between themselves and their loved one who is struggling with addiction. This helps improve emotional support systems and creates a bond so families work together to sustain long term recovery.

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.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

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.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

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.

Dr. H. had two interns with him during visits, while I was a patient in St Luke's, ED.I was extremely uncomfortable with the female intern, whom I found immature, unsettling and a very poor listener. We butted heads several times. At one point, I yelled at her to stop REPEATEDLY asking if I was "sure" I had no one at home to help.When it was time for the Thoracentesis, I asked who was performing the procedure and the female intern stated, "I am." I clearly stated, "NO, YOU ARE NOT!" I told her directly to her face, I was not comfortable with her and would NOT allow her to do procedure. I did not feel safe with her. Male intern backed me up by stating it is my right to refuse service from an intern.Dr. H. then proceeded with the Thoracentesis. Toward the end of the procedure, he turned the drainage over to the female intern, whom I CLEARLY MADE KNOWN to all present, I did NOT want the female intern working on me.He REPEATEDLY cautioned the female intern to, "Slow down, let gravity do the work," since she was draining too fast.It was at this point; I could not inhale or exhale, became lightheaded and felt like I would pass out. I started banging hard on the table I was leaning over to get their attention to stop. I could not speak and was in great distress. All I heard was, "Breathe deeply". No one moved toward me and I had no idea what was going on behind me.Dr. H. blatantly ignored my right to refuse to have the female intern work on me and in the process put me in a compromised situation that could have deteriorated quickly.There is absolutely nothing in Dr. H's "Results" statement documenting the above stated distress. It was ignored by all parties concerned.After posting this review, Eric R. Eustice, DO, Chief of Emergency Medicine, (whom I was told to report the incident to, since my patient rights were violated by allowing an Intern to work on me whom I vehemently opposed and made no secret of it to all in the room), called to not only apologize, but to let me know, Dr. H, who the complaint concerned, is not under Dr. Eustice.s department, but in Pulmonology. Dr. Eustice referred the problem to Pulmonology for follow up. Sincerely appreciated the call and correction provided.

Run!!!! Don't walk away from here. Dangerously under staffed hospital. They rotate doctors from their owned medical offices. They say it's a seemless process bevery Monday you the day explaining your problem over and over and over againAnything your last doc of the week told you os ignored and new doctor start changing stuffOne idiot kept limiting my diet but never.bpother to tell me. I would find out when I tried to order. The first time this happened dietary took everything I wasn't allowed to have off my order and brought me a tray with a 2 ounce chicken breast and nothing else. After 2 months in this system they tried to convince me to stayOne doctor threatened me with future health problems. If I left I signed myself out and will never go back. This used to be a good hospital but not anymoreMost of the staffed is unpaid poorly trained students.. one guy was so nervous he had to run to the bathroom to throw up 3 times during his evaluation.One of the main reasons the want to lKeep me was.i was dehydrated. It could'nt be because the restricted.fluid diet they put me on.Update stuck here again hard to believe this place is even worse. It's smer time and they are skimping on the air conditioning. How are you going to heal when you you are hot and sweaty,? This place is a menace to the community. Doctor don't ask for your opinions on anything the change things and don't tell you. The motto here is I'm sorry the entire staff uses it all the time.Update 2: a couple of days ago I was scheduled for a procedure. No food or drink after midnight. Then around noon they tell me it was canceledOnce was bad enough but they just did it again. No body in this place has a clue looks like going to have to head to Philly

How is this hospital still even open after the Charlie Cullens Killer Nurse case that happened in the ICU here? Reviews are horrible for this place anyway. Had a family member come here and it was scary! Didn t know about the cases until after my family member was discharged.

Avoid this hospital if possible. The doctors had zero communication with my brother who was in a motorcycle accident. He came in the trauma center as an emergency patient and they pushed off his surgery for 36 hours and left him at a higher risk of infection and losing a limb. When we asked his surgeons if his tissue was dying they said not really several times. On top of that the team came up and got him ready to bring him down not once but twice and then said they had more important things and that they d be back in an hour. They told him he couldn t eat or even drink water for over 24 hours. Then they pushed it until the next morning at 10pm and told him by someone bringing him a tray of food. No communication from anyone. This left him in severe pain and the feeling that he was the very last priority in the hospital. All of the doctors were extremely apathetic towards him and our family. If this happened to their brother they would expect a much higher quality of care as well. There was one nurse there that is the only reason for the one star. I would give her 5 on its own if I could. I wish I could remember her name but she treated him with dignity and was the only one who communicated and made him feel like a priority. You could tell she was in awe of how his situation was being treated. All of this has made him have to stay an unnecessary extra few days. My family is very patient but this was by far the worst experience I ve ever seen in a hospital.

I had to go to the emergency room twice after a surgery I had due to the immense pain. The doctors and nurses here are so special. I have never experienced this level of care before. I had to go into an emergency surgery and the doctor who broke the news to me held my hand and made sure I wasn t scared or upset. I greatly appreciate the kindness of the staff here.

Response from the owner2 months ago
Annie: Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are glad to hear you received the best possible care from our doctors and nurses. We know how difficult and stressful it can be to undergo surgery and deal with pain. We are proud of our staff for showing compassion and dedication to their patients. We hope that you are feeling better and recovering well. St. Luke s Reputation Management Team
