I was a resident at the Warwick house in 2007-2009. The staff back then was unprofessional and there was one in particular I ll say R.H that would provoke kids with anger issues for the fun of it . (Not me ) but I ve seen it done . I m in my late 20s now and just look back at all the places I ve been and say this was the least helpful program

Referencing experience based on year 2012. Warwick House was top notch for Reactive Attachment Disorder. Dr Jeff really understood the behaviors of this disorder and the accompanying disorders . The staff was great too. Meals were balanced for each child based on their personal dietary needs. The House was super accommodating for parents. In 10 months we saw nothing that was out of line or unwarranted which was comforting. Without Warwick hard saying where we would be now, I don't want to even think about it. Thank you Warwick.

I was here when I was like 9 or 10 years old(I'm 15 now) and very few staff were nice to me also I would get restrained and they would hold me down but when I told them it hurt they would hold tighter I almost passed out once. Most of the staff are very verbally abusive and sometimes physically . If you actually love your child don't send them here they can get help somewhere else that has a better environment.

Other Forms of Payment

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

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

Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
child-program thumbnail image
Child Program
The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's addiction.

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.

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.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

I cannot thank Warwick House staff enough for the therapy they extended to my daughter while she was there for 5 months! The environment was a tough one (reason for four stars), but when a child and family want help with past traumas, the therapy is top notch! My daughter is back at home and we will always be grateful for the help she was given at a time when she just didn t believe life was worth living.

I am a 15 year old former resident of the Warwick house. I thought it would be a good idea to give the perspective of a patient as you as parents must remember that you are not the ones living here full-time. I spent 15 months at Warwick house. I'll start off by saying that the staff turnover rate is probably double that of the kids. Maybe this doesn't seem to bad until you remember that for your children, close relationships with the staff are inevitable. I saw one of, in my opinion, the best counselors leave due to the treatment from some of the higher ups including Dr. Jeff and the therapists, particularly James and Jess. One of the things he was reprimanded for (By Jeff) was being a bit aggressive. A bit aggressive after being punched in the face. The policy is to use the least amount of force possible to make sure the child is safe but it is absurd to tell the staff that they cannot hold a child who had literally just physically assaulted them, and to do so is hypocritical when you have the administrators screaming at kids who made small mistakes (a pistachio incident. It is as stupid as it sounds.) If your child claims to feel unsafe to go home, they (Warwick staff) will send them home anyway. They will use physical force. If your child still refuses after all of the staff's efforts, your child will be punished. If your child goes home and does exactly what they feared they were going to do and acts unsafely, they will be punished. This happened to me many times. I said I felt unsafe, and they said, "We don't care, you're going home anyway," and I would be punished for their negligence. My therapist was James, by the way. I am not sure of the staffing now. Another topic the staff and I felt strongly about was the food. I promise you that there were children who dropped 10-20 lbs in four months, so roughly 2-5 lbs a month. 2 seems reasonable until you realize that your child is going to sleep hungry every night. There are no seconds on protein. When I say protein I am talking about the microwaved lunch-meat ham that they call a dinner. 3 pierogies, carrots, and a slice of bread is considered a meal at the Warwick house. Kids are allowed one HALF a peanut butter jelly sandwich nightly, no more. If they do take more than one, even if there are extras, they are reprimanded and sent to bed hungry.I spent my entire 8th grade year at Warwick, which I will admit is on me, but for a majority of that time my bedtime was 7:45. For defiant young children, a strict bedtime seems great. But it can be detrimental for older kids who suffer with issues other than anger or defiance.As I said before, my therapist was James. James (and the other therapists as well, I was close with some of the other residents who has the same issues; one of them also a patient of James who is now in foster care) had absolutely no regard for anything I said and would try to assign emotions to me that I did not feel. They test you.example: "You can't go out with your dad (for no reason), are you disappointed?" No, I am angry. "No, you are disappointed."Your child will only see the psychiatrist every other week during family sessions. Dr. Kuh will not explain the medication she puts them on and she oftentimes won't even inform you about new prescriptions, your child will just find a new pill in their cup the next morning. Do not expect your child to be taken off of medications that give negative side effects.Please, for the sake of your child, do not send them here unless absolutely necessary. I would not recommend for anyone over the age of 6. That leaves a window of a year from the youngest age for admission to the age when you just shouldn't admit your child. If you want your child to have a therapist who ignores them, goes behind their (and your) back, punishes your child for feeling or acting unsafely (primarily towards themselves), then I invite you to admit your child here. If you care about your child at all, I suggest you keep looking. Maybe look somewhere where they will be fed more than 1000 calories per day.contact me w questions
