The nurses were amazing. Dr Costa...not so much. I had come out of the hospital after 8 days following some physical & mental health issues. He asked me for a list of my current medications that I wasn't able to provide at the time, so he filled everything Is presented to the ER upon admission. While I was there (because I have back issues & am disabled) they administered pain medication that they thought was necessary & I agreed. 5 days later he approached me in front of the staff and all of the other patients telling me that I had scammed him into providing it & brought me to tears in front of them all. I tried to explain that it was likely because he got the list from the hospital, but he insisted that Id lied and told him it was something I was already taking. It had been, but only when working & purposely not otherwise. He was adamant that I was some kind of drug fiend, cut me off and kicked me out although I was not yet in any shape to leave. His actions had very real consequences in my life, and yet he goes on doing what he does. It was explained to me by my PCP that it was likely because of the newish law saying that if you first prescribeOpioids, then you are responsible for anything related after that. Strange, because when I was able to get back to work; my PCP had no problem. I hope I don't ever have to go back, not only, but because Dr Kopta is still there. And I hope it won't be a matter of life & death like it was last time. Ask for another Doctor.

Recently admitted on own accord. The weekend staff was pleasant but not helpful. The week day staff was rude and uncaring. This place is literally disgusting. They don't wipe tables or chairs after meals. None of the furniture is ever wiped down. You can literally see the dirt, grease, and crumbs in the creases of furniture. Was covid tested before admitted, yet my second day there I was woken by nurse at 6 am saying they had to retest everyone due to outbreak on connecting ward, again they don't wipe or clean anything including dining area floors and tables. This is suppose to be a place of healing and help, yet they ignore patients literally begging to see the doctor and talk. This patient was carted off by several security guards when doctors was only feet away in his office doing nothing. The doctor spends 5 minutes checking in with you and calls it therapy. I would recommend if you need psychiatric care you look elsewhere for it, cause this place isn't giving it. Thankfully I was able to check out and leave since I was self admit. Feel extremely bad for the people stuck there due to holds. All around not a therapeutic place of healing.

Accepted Insurance

Salem Health Psychiatric Medicine Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Salem Hospital PMC is incompetent, unprofessional and discriminatory. What a joke!! I went there because I needed serious psychiatric intervention after a near lethal suicide attempt in October 2022. I arrived at PMC in a wheelchair and I was warned by the main Salem Hospital not to let it out of my sight. Strange?? After one day, a PMC nurse asked if she could "borrow" it for a moment and I never saw it again. Due to my disabled status it was near impossible to get my meals without the wheelchair or staff assistance. The staff refused to assist me, so I had to impose on other patients to help me. Clearly discriminatory. On my third day there, I was very nauseous and vomiting due to strong antibiotics. I asked my nurse if she could bring me a small salad, as I am hypoglycemic, and did not want to vomit in the eating area. She refused and called my treating shrink, Dr. Wilson. Without any input from me, he sent back word that if I couldn't get my own food I could do without or leave the hospital immediately. He was kicking me out three days after a near lethal suicide attempt over a salad! Such poor judgment by a psychiatrist. I was shocked. I left within one day thereafter, clearly too premature from a mental healthwise point of view. When I brought up reasonable accommodation regarding the staff's refusal to assist me, I was scolded by Dr. Costa, the head of the unit, that I had to leave and was not welcomed to return ever. I reached out to the authorities in the main Salem Hospital, who apologized profusely and confirmed that Dr. Costa was wrong to not provided a reasonable accommodation. I would never go back there again. BUYER BEWARE!
