just got out yesterday yes i 100% can see how some of these reviews can be true, (but it’s REALLY not that bad.) most of the 1-3 stars are just people who love to complain. if your nice and don’t have any aggressive reports you’ll most likely go upstairs (you’d go there for self harm, suicide attempts, thoughts of suicide or eating disorders.) downstairs is for more aggressive people who in their report have homicidal thoughts, or actually going through with them (or just being actually INSANE.) while i was there, there was this one nurse who was absolutely amazing, she made my visit (5 days) so much better. helped me get a restraining order on my father, good mood, just amazing. the staff upstairs are nice, funny, and helpful, there was only a couple of complaints i had there, which was going to bed at 8:30pm and waking up at 7:00am, there was this one kid who made EVERY girl at our group uncomfortable, but we reported him and got him removed. the food there was somewhat good (it’s a hospital what can you expect), and if you didn’t like it you could request a box lunch (school field trip type food) and i’d say the whole time i was there i had a lot of people supporting me to actually work on my mental health, and i really feel like it helped lmao. don’t let these reviews scare you.

stayed here ONCE. Staff do not care about the patients, and do not even TRY to connect. 90% of the time we have to do some shitty mental health workbook that is literally helping NOBODY. It’s painfully obvious the therapists are only here for a check. They pretty much ALL talk like robots, and the way they speak gives “ive heard this a million times before, let’s get this over with🙄”. I was hospitalized primarily for an eating disorder. After not eating for most of the day, at the cafeteria a nurse began to walk up to where I was sitting. She approached me smiling wide, squatted next to me, and then said, “if you don’t eat, we’re going to send you to a real hospital and they’re going to shove a tube up your nose to MAKE you eat.” Tell me this… how are you going to say that to a teenage girl who is struggling… with a GRIN ON YOUR FACE? 😒 Anyways, the best thing about this place was probably the food… so props to the kitchen staff for getting that right. Anyways, dont send your child here. Also, if you’re thinking of sending your child to KVC/Camber. CHECK THE REVIEWS AS WELL. Marillac is nice, but the staff do not care about patients VERY obviously. KVC/Camber have *some* genuinely good staff/therapists, but it is EXTREMELY ghetto there… your child most likely WILL witness a physical altercation.

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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

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

Inpatient rehab offers intensive treatment and typically include round-the-clock clinical care. Inpatient treatment is designed primarily for clients exiting detox, those in early recovery, and those at an increased risk of relapse. Inpatient programs generally involve multiple addiction counseling sessions per week, which may include individual, group, and family counseling. Many inpatient rehabs also offer recovery-focused life skills training and evidence-based holistic therapies, such as meditation, massage, yoga, equine therapy, and experiential therapy.

Sober Living Homes

Sober living homes in Kansas offers a balance of freedom, structure, and accountability to provide a safe environment where individuals in recovery can practice maintaining a sober lifestyle. Recovery homes, also called halfway houses, typically include daily chores, set meal times, curfews, and required 12-step meeting attendance. This setting can be beneficial for those who need additional support after treatment before returning home.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers short-term intensive rehab for those who don't require 24-hour care. Often known as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program allows individuals to receive treatment during the day and return home in the evening. The duration of PHP treatment is flexible, allowing you to actively engage in daily 4-6 hour sessions, at least 5 days a week, for an average of 90 days. PHP treatment encompasses a range of evidence-based therapies and other behavioral therapy interventions.

Medically Assisted Detox

Physical withdrawal can be uncomfortable, and in severe cases, it can even be dangerous. In an inpatient environment, a medically assisted detox is performed by a team of licensed medical professionals who monitor your vitals, provide medications when necessary, and ensure your safety, health, and comfort during this process. Medical detox is usually the very first step in the recovery process.

Programs

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.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Military Program

Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Clinical Services

If your therapist applies methods of cognitive behavioral therapy in Kansas, you can expect to gain a better understanding of your thoughts and behaviors and learn how to cope with difficult situations without using substances. This method is a proven technique for treating substance use and mental health disorders.

The goal of trauma therapy is to address the lingering emotional and physical responses from witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event. Your therapist helps you develop strategies that manage your symptoms while processing the traumatic memories. This improves your overall well being and reduces your physical and emotional responses to triggers.

By learning life skills during rehab in Kansas, you can learn how to manage daily life in recovery. These skills will help you establish a new and independent life. They'll help you develop a healthy daily routine, practice self care, and cultivate healthy relationships.

Creative arts therapy may be provided by qualified teachers, counselors, and psychotherapists. These professionals guide participants in self expression and emotional processing through activities such as dance, drama, poetry, painting, or sculpting.

i went here a lot of months ago and i just wanna say never.ever. go. it absolutely SUCKS. the staff is childish, they argue and yell, and act like little 14 year olds. when i came out, my clothes were ripped from them washing them so much. A guy tried fighting me while there was no staff there and I had to change my unit 2-3 times. my last unit though, it was amazing. i forgot the staff lady’s name but , she has a blonde bob. she’s absolutely the most sweetest lady i’ve met in a hospital like that. and the people there in that unit were also kind, and understanding. but never go here the food is horrible and nasty it’s like a prison.

You see a lot of parents writing good reviews, but you never see the child's perspective. I was 14 when I was admitted at 2 am, start of the summer last year. I was in there for extreme self harm, depression, and for being suicidal. Only few nurses respected, and we're kind to me. Though all of them ask u the repetive questions 4x a day, making you wanna cut off ur ears. The nurses also wouldn't listen to me, I was woken uo at 6 am a hour befor our initial time to wake up because of blood work. I begged the nurses not to take my blood knowing I'm deadly scared of needles and would pass out. I did end up passing out after I was forced to get my blood taken. In conclusion on the nurses, it determined who you had some may not listed to you or sum will help. The therapist and physician confused me as a patient i met so many people making me confused on who's who, I just went were they told me and answered questions so I wouldn't get in trouble. That's one of the only major thing that confused and made me worried when it came to therapist, and physicians. A huge major thing about this hospital is trying to figure out on when you will be released they had days saying I was being released, they would say that everyday but it would never be official. My parents were were confused on when I would be let out. It git to the point I lied on how I felt just so I could get out. Many mental hospitals are even worse than this one, so I did get luxky for getting a better than others one. But if a patent is worried for them , if your child isn't in therapy I recommened getting in therapy and after few sessions then discuss with therapist on there thoughts and if it would benefit the kid. Instead traumatize them and make them feel more scared/ and or depressed than they already are. Please choose wisely, this is a huge decision that will effect ur child's life

I was 15 when I went there right after my assault. I am now 18, and here is my experience. To preface, I have celiac disease, which means my intestines can’t process wheat. While there, I had to eat nothing besides mandarin oranges and yogurt, and they glutened me while I was there, causing me intestinal damage by telling me things were gluten-free when they weren’t. While at Marillac, on my last day, I walked over to the nurses, holding my spork up in the air so they could see it, because we were not allowed to have them except at lunch, so we would not harm ourselves with them. I did this so the nurses wouldn’t think I was doing anything wrong with it. I got to the nurses holding it and handed it to her, and she said that I pretended to stab someone, even though I did not i told her that i did not do that and explained it and she yelled at me and threatened to make me stay longer when that day was my day to leave. I was here because I had thoughts of committing or hurting myself. I was NOT here because of thoughts of hurting others. I have never thought of hurting anyone or anything else, which should have been in my records. She told every doctor, nurse, and other person there, and I told them they should check the cameras if they didn’t believe me. They would not do that even though they threatened my stay because of this “situation.” For some reason, I believe that the nurse did not like me. I don’t think she knew this, but I wrote a complaint, and they did nothing about it besides send me an automated letter saying thanks for my feedback, but they would not be doing anything about her lying about patients. Besides that, they were genuinely weird and wouldn’t let me talk to my parents even though I did nothing wrong. They had an aggravated female on the same level as me, and they moved her to the behavioral ward, but she threatened to hurt me while I was talking to another person because her reason was “my voice was annoying,” she said. THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE PEOPLE ON THE SAME LEVEL. The therapist there would essentially punish/threaten me for not wanting to talk to him because. I did not because he is a man, and I had been here right after my assault, but he also refused my ptsd diagnosis from my therapist, who has her bachelor's, so she legally can diagnose me. They also strip-searched me when I got there. They made me spin around naked and just stared at me, wouldn't let me cover my privates either. Everyone hated the food, but I didn't have to eat it because of my celiac disease. They did not allow us anything personal, and it genuinely just made my mental health worse. They gave my parents advice that was the TOTAL OPPOSITE of what my therapist and psychologist recommended. It genuinely was a prison where I was not allowed to talk to my parents when I wanted, even though I behaved. This place made my life so much worse. And when i returned home my well being was worse than before. Luckly I am now happy with life. But it has been around 3 years since this and it still aggravates me the way that nurse treated me for no sensible reason.

Recently had to have my daughter admitted to the hospital recently and when it was time for her to be released even though i verified my self and assigned my boyfriend to pick her up because i had an emergency and he was already near the hospital they was refusing to release her to him. Even though before he got there i was told they would release her to him because he was on the list of people she could be released to. Absolutely annoying. Right hand dont talk to the left hand there.

Perhaps you are like me, desperately reading reviews at 2am in the emergency room. And everything feels awful, and nothing feels right, and you’re looking for that shred of hope that you’re making the right choice, and that your child is going to be safe. Our experience with Marillac was overall positive. All of the staff were friendly to our daughter, the kids as well. Did she love being there? No. But was she safe, respected, and treated humanely? 100% yes. We were able to call anytime between 8a-8p, and if we couldn’t talk to her right then, she was able to call back as soon as she was available. Visiting hours were limited, but good. The staff communicated with us daily about her progress. The therapist she met with was friendly, insightful, and very good at her job. We were able to have family sessions, which was a huge benefit. The campus was clean and up to date. There were lots of windows and natural light. During her stay my daughter didn’t have a room mate, which she was grateful for, but I say that because other hospitals we reviewed were overcrowded and had kids sleeping on the floor. This was not at all the case here. The food was compared to school lunch. But she was never left to go hungry. And you are able to bring food/drink to your visitation. Keep in mind, this isn’t meant to have resort levels of comfort. But the kids needs are met in terms of physical and mental. While I hope we never have to return, I am grateful for the time she was there was positive overall.

I've been admitted to Marillac a couple of times now (4, 4 times). To be honest, this place is one of the better hospitals I've spent time at. My only two complaints is that they sent me home (even when I wasnt ready) so I had to be back the same day and that they don't have residential. But still, this is a really good hospital full of staff that just want to help. So glad I found the care I needed there. Thank you to Therapist Patrick, Staff Yaya, Nurse... (I FORGOT HER NAME, BUT SHE'S AWESOME!) and Doctor Douglass Thank you all!

Asim Ansari, MD Is one of the worst Mental Health med doctors I’ve ever dealt with. Can’t ever get medication‘s right so insurance will approve them.

Michelle Nesbitt

This is a great place. My oldest had to go there in the past while he was in foster care. But each time we been treated very well & they are so understanding

Lexi

I was already very nervous when I arrived. Miss Yaya was extremely rude to everyone in the unit, when working in medical health I feel like you should have to be an actual decent person but no She would yell at all of us none stuff for little things like sitting to close to each other… I didn’t have a problem with any of the other workers. They were very nice, unlike Yaya. And I’m not being dramatic when I say she’s the rudest person I’ve ever met.
