About UH Geauga Medical Center, a campus of UH Regional Hospitals

University Hospitals Geauga Medical Center - Behavioral Health is based in Chardon, Ohio. They offer detox, inpatient, outpatient, and dual diagnosis treatment for adults and adolescents.

Their inpatient program is best suited if you need a high level of structure and supervision. Here, you’ll receive psychiatric care and medication management to help control cravings and to help with withdrawal pains. The main method of treatment is through individual and group therapy. You’ll explore your own strengths and weaknesses while helping others recover.

One strength of the program is dual diagnosis treatment, in which you’ll receive treatment for underlying conditions that can fuel addiction. Typically, these can involve anger, trauma, or anxieties. You can learn ways to cope without resorting to alcohol or drugs. The medical center has other departments that can assist with diagnosing underlying conditions, and you can be referred for mental and physical therapy.

When you complete your inpatient program, you can move to an outpatient program. You’ll have more flexibility when it comes to your sessions. You can also sign in via Telehealth to continue treatment from home.

I came into the ER in severe pain and Debbie made me feel so safe. She was kind, patient, empathetic and gentle. Because of her, I was able to push through and remain calm. I understand why she earned the Daisy Award! Thank you Debbie!

Apparently bringing your child in at 11:30 at night is not a good thing here. Yes they were fast to get things started BUT the lady checking us in to the lady doing my daughters vitals to the nurse that came in and Dissmed my daughters pain with her IV this place should be ashamed of how they treat little ones when their not feeling well. The only person who had any compassion and was nice to make my daughter calm was the ultrasound tech. I d give her 10 stars. Fair warning if you can wait until the night screw on Thursday nights are gone I d suggest you do if you want to be treated fairly and have some type of compassion. I d say this was the worst trip out of years my family has gone here. Shame on UH for keeping rude not compassionate people like this!

From the second I stepped foot in the hospital to my discharge, I received nothing but the best care. The area I am from lacks in the healthcare area, and the hour drive to UH was worth it. To all the nurses, aides, doctors, all staff- you saved my life. I highly recommend this hospital to everyone who has mental health needs, as well as any other needs. 10/10, chefs kiss

Location

Accepted Insurance

UH Geauga Medical Center, a campus of UH Regional Hospitals works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Buckeye Health Plan
HealthAmerica

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.

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

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

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 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.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
hearing-impaired-program thumbnail image
Hearing Impaired Program
A sensory disability, such as hearing impairment, can compound the challenges of addiction recovery. Drug rehabs that are specially designed to accommodate the needs of persons with hearing impairments will include special accessibility features and accommodations to make treatment as comfortable and effective as possible. This may include access to American Sign Language interpreters.
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

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.

My dad came into this hospital after a recent fall. They refused to do cat scan to check for a break. Weeks later he finally gets into orthopedics and find 4 fractures in his pelvis. Doctor was incredibly rude and unhelpful.

I had a wonderful experience with the lactation team at UH Geauga. I am so grateful this resource was available at this location. After delivering my baby at UH Geauga, I was promptly greeted by lactation team members who were passionate about my breastfeeding intentions, and helped me through some latching challenges. I am certain without this support, I would have given up on breastfeeding. Thank you so much!

There are some very good nurses and staff , However the illegal activities is absolutely astounding.*Absolute carelessness with anysort of Medical , Durable or MH power of Attorney- they will not follow any protocol, Medical wishes or even bother scanning them into the system.* The unjustified use of chemical restraints- Under Ohio Law, Medical baord guidelines: "No chemical restraint shall be given as a means of convience " unfortunately had a nurse and a doctor when presented with refusal of care - rather then accepting my wish for non treatment and was told i would just be waiting several hours i responded with " i would rather wait " i was then meet with a chemical restraint and threatened with full physical restraints over vitals and bloodwork.This truly is a sad situation in a already fractured Medical system

Thanks for stapling my head back together after looking for the staple gun for 4 hours. Thanks to the floor Dr for canceling half of my prescriptions without consulting the patient or explanation for doing so. Thanks for perscribing antibiotics for high white blood cell for 3 days only nothing to take home. I pray to God I never need this facility again.

I think UH Geauga ER is a fast way to see a doctor/PA. Their waiting room isn t usually too full and triage is smooth. It s a 50/50 on whether or not you get nice staff. Some I ve seen are super nice and helpful and others are more short and just wanting to get people out quickly. Make sure you get all your concerns out and feel helped before leaving, advocacy is very important. Overall I ve had good experiences!
