Summit Oaks Hospital offers medically monitored detox, medication assisted treatment, inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization programs, intensive outpatient programs, and aftercare for young adults and adults. Specialized services are available for children and teenagers. Telehealth is an option.

Summit Oaks Hospital provides a medically supervised detox program for clients to reduce cravings and ease withdrawal symptoms. Medical professionals monitor vital signs and withdrawal symptoms to ensure the process is as comfortable as possible. Licensed clinicians may also administer FDA approved prescriptions to discourage relapse. The length of detox and the method used varies depending on what is best for each person.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Their Outpatient Treatment Programs Treatment provide comprehensive mental health treatment customized to suit each patient’s recovery needs. They offer group therapy, medication monitoring, psycho-education, family work, as well as coordination of care and referrals upon successful discharge. Services are designed to help you develop the skills to help prevent relapse of symptoms and/or substance abuse.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Clients often enter inpatient rehab following detox, but they may also enroll during early recovery or at an increased risk of relapse. Inpatient rehabs provide housing, meals, and intensive clinical supervision, allowing clients to focus exclusively on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment. Clients typically receive multiple individual, group, and/or family therapy sessions weekly. Many programs also offer extensive addiction education and recovery-focused life skills training. Integrative inpatient rehabs provide holistic therapies as well.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

The adult psychiatric Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is for people who want to maintain their everyday life but also need more intensive therapy. Services include mental health treatment for depression, anxiety, anger, chronic pain, mood disorders, impulsive behavior, and grief and loss. Their partial hospital (PHP) and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) are geared toward meeting your individual needs in a less restrictive environment. Patients frequently participate in our PHP & IOP as a step down from inpatient care.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients in a rehab aftercare program have typically completed detox and intensive inpatient and are medically stable. These programs are designed to address addiction recovery as a life-long process. Outpatient counseling and recovery education are typically categorized as drug rehab aftercare, but many clients continue to receive support after being discharged from formal outpatient treatment. Case managers and recovery teams facilitate clients' access to peer coaching, career counseling, 12 step program induction, and related services.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term, intensive outpatient option designed for those with moderate to severe addictions who don't require 24-hour care. PHP treatment is often fully covered by insurance and provides structured programming (i.e. individual and group therapy). A typical partial hospitalization program can meet 3-5 days a week for a minimum of 20 hours, offering intensive treatment during the day while allowing you to return home after. PHP treatment duration can vary based on your progress but averages 90 days.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

If you feel out of control with your substance use, they can help. They can provide you with a safe detox that will ease your discomfort and assist you towards a healthier lifestyle.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in New Jersey is the process of addressing the complex issues involved with addiction. Challenges are identified and addressed through individual and group counseling. Participants learn how to manage these issues without the use of substances.

check iconDual Diagnosis

If you struggle with both acute psychiatric symptoms and substance use issues, they will provide a safe place to help stabilize both issues in a clinical setting. Their team will assist by helping you understand both issues, and managing your symptoms. The Co-Occurring Disorder program is specially designed to recognize and meet your individualized needs, and provide a place where both issues are understood. They can provide you with the skills so you can make recovery a reality

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

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.

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Patients are involved in journaling, poetry writing, watercolor painting, group murals, and other creative/art activities. Masters-level art therapists in their department, provide art therapy to our adolescents and adults. During the Music Expression/Songwriting Workshops, patients are guided in writing a song about their feelings, pertaining to recovery and wellness.

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.

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

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.

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.

Worst place to have sent my mom. No progress at all in her mental health. Communication was terrible. She ended up having acute renal failure because she wasn t eating or getting hydrated and this place is involuntary unit so they should have been encouraging her to eat and take her Medicine so she had to be transported to a regular hospital. No one told us this and even after calling all day and leaving messages still no one reached out to let us know. Spoke with social worker Carrisa and when I was asking why no one reached out to let us know updates and why we weren t told about her having to go to the hospital she made it seem like the phone was cutting in and out and told me nothing and transferred me to another line that sent me to voicemail. Avoid this place at all costs. It s obvious they do not care.

I stayed in the kids unit TU4. All the staff and nurses were absolutely really helpful,nice,kind, and just really good people. I was there for 2 weeks and it was good experience! It was my first time being in a psych ward and I thought it was going to be like in the movies in an all white room and just a bed, but it wasn't. We were woken up around 8am to eat breakfast and then after that we watched TV or a movie and then it depended on what day it was. Like on the weekends you watched movies all day and if it was nice out we got to go out, or sleep. What me and the other kids learned was they can't make you do anything there. They can tell you to do something but can't force you to do anything. It was very clean there. The showers were clean (the girls side anyway) the bathrooms were clean, and the cafeteria was somewhat clean. The food there was a hit or miss. The breakfast was okay. The food was cold most of the time but you were aloud to ask to heat the food up. I want to acknowledge Mr.Gary, Miss, Angel, Miss Pam, Miss. Sisi, Mr. Sunny, Mrs. Ellen and Ms. Nicole. They have honestly made my stay much better. They are all really helpful and will do anything for us. They all know what they are doing and like I said they will absolutely do anything for us, especially Mr.Gary and Miss. Angel. I hope they get the acknowledgement and 'rewards' they deserve. I've read most of the reviews of this place and honestly I can only speak for myself and say it really helped and got the help I needed and deserve.Love the kid from TU4, J.G

I was recently admitted here voluntarily, the only reason I m giving 2 star is because the nurses are nice specifically Lauren and Adrienne. Doctor S seemed to have put me on the right meds to be stable (for now..) and the food was good. Otherwise, it s a pretty unsafe and triggering environment and they don t do anything about it unless someone physically hurts you. I will also say the place is SEVERELY understaffed.
