Unfortunately Valley Hope of Atchison Kansas is poorly staffed. They do not have a licensed medical doctor on staff. They are over crowded and under staffed. I have been here for 12 days and have seen a councler for individual counseling twice. I have received no more information than I would get in an AA meeting. Sadly disappointed.Donna C

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Clients receiving treatment at an outpatient facility are often further along in their recovery journey than those in inpatient care, meaning they may require less intensive supervision and support. Outpatient services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and community reintegration support. Most outpatient rehabs offer evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients' needs. Clients who are in early recovery or are at an increased relapse risk may enroll in partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) programs.
inpatient iconInpatient
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.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Clients exiting detox, stepping down from inpatient rehab, or at an increased risk of relapse often enroll in intensive outpatient programs (IOP). These programs offer high-level support, including multiple therapeutic sessions per week. Clients typically receive between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly. Intensive outpatient rehabs generally offer an array of services, including individual, group, and family counseling and recovery education. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is widely available for those in alcohol and/or opioid recovery.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Clients in a rehab aftercare program typically have completed intensive inpatient treatment but may be receiving outpatient care. Many have concluded outpatient treatment as well and are in the maintenance phase of their recovery. Rehab aftercare services are designed to provide a full continuum of care as clients apply their recovery skills at home, in the workplace, and in the community. Clients typically receive peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step recovery program induction, among other 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) 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.
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
For patients dependent on alcohol or other drugs, medically monitored detoxification eases withdrawal in a safe, supportive environment. Detoxification usually lasts just a few days and is done under the supervision of doctors and nurses at their residential treatment centers. Each patient is given a complete physical including a lab profile and monitored 24/7 throughout the withdrawal period. When necessary, medications are used to reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms. When detoxification is complete, patients can move on to the next phase in our continuum of care as a resident or outpatient.

Treatments

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.

The length, intensity, setting, and treatment methods vary for each drug rehab in Kansas. Plans of care can be tailored to meet each person's own unique situation and needs. With the right program, individuals can successfully achieve long-term sobriety.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

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.
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
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.
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.
military-program thumbnail image
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

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.

During dialectical behavior therapy, you'll work with your therapist to learn new skills that allow you to better regulate your emotions. This treatment involves a pre assessment, individual therapy, skills training in groups, and telephone crisis coaching.

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.

When applying motivational interviewing, your therapist will ask open ended questions that encourage you to think differently about your challenges. They will also affirm your strengths and abilities. They will then offer empathy and reflect your thoughts back to you so you can identify any discrepancies in your current behaviors and your future goals.

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.

Couples therapy can help with problem solving, communication, forgiveness, and relationship satisfaction. This type of therapy is typically short term, and couples may meet with the therapist together as well as in separate sessions.

Substance use disorder (SUD) affects more than just the person struggling with the disease. It impacts every member of the family. At Valley Hope, they understand the problems families face and offer a range of programs designed to alleviate feelings of fear, guilt, frustration and resentment. Through compassion and understanding, they help families heal and recover together. They offer a variety of services for individuals, couples and families at our residential and outpatient treatment facilities. Individual, family and small group sessions explore emotional responses to addiction and consider positive ways of managing emotions. Interactive lectures help families understand the disease of addiction and learn behaviors that will support their loved one’s recovery. Designed to help families begin the healing process, Family Intensive Treatment (FIT) offers daily online group discussions facilitated by a family counselor, plus individual therapy online once a week. Online video conferences are held weekly in a live group session. FIT is offered to any person affected by a loved one’s substance use disorder. You do not have to have a family member at one of our centers in order to participate.

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.

Long term substance use causes chemical imbalances in the body that cause cravings, depression, and other conditions that perpetuate the cycle of addiction. Nutrition therapy addresses these imbalances by providing the foods your body needs for optimal function.

I think treatment centers are burnt out and run out of empathy. My 18 year old daughter was just kicked to the curb for being argumentative. You are dealing with people who abuse drugs and alcohol, you know they won t be feeling well, specially teenagers . They will have attitudes , be patient and compassionate. A refresher on a trauma informed care may not be a bad idea.

Response from the owner2 months ago
Your feedback is invaluable, and we take it to heart. We will be reviewing our practices and providing additional training to our staff, particularly in trauma-informed care, to ensure we handle such situations with the utmost empathy and patience.

Every time I call with questions regarding my loved one's treatment the reception staff are very tight lipped. It seems as if they are trying not to spill some sort of secret information. Even though he has signed a release that information from the staff can be shared with me. Just the weirdest vibes from the staff. Very tight-lipped. Also, I've only called twice. Once to ask about the electronics policy and voice my concerns with him specifically and the other time to ask for his counselors name as I got a call late at night from someone claiming to be his counselor and wanted to see if that was normal. "Counselor" called me at 9:35 PM.

Response from the owner4 months ago
Thank you for sharing your concerns. We apologize for any frustration you've experienced. We take privacy and confidentiality very seriously, which may sometimes come across as being overly cautious. Your loved one's well-being is our top priority, and we strive to provide clear and helpful communication within the bounds of privacy regulations. I will pass this information onto the Executive Director about your concerns and the late call. Thank you for letting us know your issues so that we can better our treatment process.

Valley Hope of Atchison is a God send! I was at my worst and Valley Hope was there when I needed them the most! That was 2 1/2 years ago and I am still sober and enjoying an incredible sober life! I have had many opportunities to go back and speak to the patient group and give back the love that Valley Hope and their amazing staff had given to me! A special shout out to our alumni coordinator Allison, she is our guardian angel! She is the glue that keeps this incredible recovery family together! Friends for life!

If you or a friend/family member are struggling and searching for the answer to help turn thing around. Stop searching this is the place to go. From the PCAs to the councilors they all care so much not just about the numbers but you as an individual. Your success is what makes their day. The staff cares, knows you buy name and will do whatever they can to make your program successful. It doesn t stop there once you leave atchison their Alumni coordinator is absolutely fantastic, she makes sure to stay in touch with each and everyone of the past patients to check on how they are doing. Alison is one of the best social coordinators I have ever met and she could be doing whatever she wants in life she s that great. However she chooses to help those of us who are struggling bc it means so much to her and seeing her you can tell how much people in the program succeeding means to her. This place is special I couldnt recommend it more

Response from the owner8 months ago
Austin, we are so grateful for you and the kind words that you share in this review. We agree with you on Allison and are blessed to have her. We also agree with our patients success making our staffs days. We are so grateful to be able to help so many find recovery.
