This hospital I m rating it two stars because if you have an elderly parent that cannot speak for themselves like in my case, you need to get them out as soon as possible. If it is surgery that they need like my Mom, have it done and get them out as soon as possible. We had to be there everyday to make sure she was fed. You HAVE to be there and make sure they are being fed or better yet you (family member) there to feed them. This has nothing to do with her surgeon, he was EXCELLENT!! Please do not leave your elderly love one there longer than necessary. My heart breaks for those who can t speak for themselves and God bless the Very few in between who make it their business to make sure the vulnerable are being taking care of (something as simple as being fed, an essential to being nurtured back to health).

I can t stress this enough as someone who worked in the lab they tamper with the blood specifically the lead lab aide Veronica nicholas. As someone who had notice what this lady was doing i went to hr and the hire-ups as far as Michael dowling. The doctors are great but sad to say not all the employees and managers are. I have reached out to the main director of the lab Susanne nonnemacher and she ignored me. I CANT STRESS THIS ENOUGH PPEASE BE MINDFUL WHEN BRINGING A LOVED ON INTO THIS HOSPITAL SPECIFICALLY THE NORTH SITE! I would hate to see a patient getting wrongly treated due to the tampering that the lead Veronica does to patients blood.

Accepted Insurance

Staten Island University Hospital 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

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.

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.

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 iconOutpatient
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.

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 thumbnail image
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.

Clinical Services

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.

Introduced in 1983, motivational interviewing is a method to help clients commit to change. It's based on the philosophy that change is hard, and clients must explore their own options and come to their own conclusions rather than receive warnings or advice from the therapist.

I recently had the *unfortunate* pleasure of visiting this hospital, and let me tell you, it's a *masterclass* in patient neglect. If there were a competition for the worst medical facility on Earth, this place would take home the gold, silver, and bronze.First off, the staff seems to have a PhD in avoiding their jobs. Nurses? I m pretty sure I saw one of them casually scrolling through Instagram while I was gasping for breath. Doctors? I had to wait so long for mine, I m pretty sure they were in a heated debate with their couch about whether or not they should leave their house.The food? Well, calling it "food" is an insult to every vegetable and animal that ever existed. If they served you a plate of cardboard, it would be an *upgrade*. At least you wouldn t risk food poisoning from it.And the wait times? You ll have a better chance of meeting a unicorn than being seen in under three hours. I could ve knitted a sweater, learned a new language, and written a novel before anyone even acknowledged my existence.On the plus side, the hospital s Wi-Fi is strong enough to watch a two-hour movie, though it s probably a better use of your time than waiting for care.All in all, I wouldn t trust this place to treat a hangnail, let alone anything serious. If you're looking to experience what it feels like to be completely ignored while paying top dollar for it, congratulations, you ve found your paradise. If not, do yourself a favor and go anywhere else. A convenience store has better healthcare. Mind you this is within a two month span. Third floor may you all find God.

My father came here with a heart attack, left here with a stage four ucler and several skin tears. He was constanly in pain and remained soiled for hours. You would have to chase them to provide his medication and feeding. If you would you like to die a slow and painful death this is the hospital for you. I would rather die a fast death at home than to die slowly by their hands.

Had to take a trip to the emergency room because I had appendicitis and needed my appendix removed. The waiting on the drs and results took forever but I (guess) that s to be expected. Other than that everyone was SO nice. My nurses were the most amazing people I ve ever met and made being there such a safe space. Shout out to nurse Anna, Nurse Nicole, Nurse David, Nurse Jem, and Nurse Haifa you guys are truly the best. And Dr. Himi who did my surgery you were amazing as well.
