About Hackettstown Medical Center

Medication management and psychotherapy are included in their intensive outpatient program. They can also provide referrals for medical detox. They place a special emphasis on ensuring that a patient makes a lasting recovery while allowing them the ability to go to school or work.

If you need medication to ease withdrawal symptoms or support your long term sobriety, it may be provided in conjunction with counseling and recovery education. If you’re above the age of 14 and you’re at risk of opioid overdose, you might be able to access naloxone free of charge.

I like that aftercare is such a significant part of the program. They want to make sure that no one feels like they don’t have the support they need to make it through difficult moments without relapsing. Prevention and early intervention are the hallmarks of their care philosophy, so they also have options for inpatient treatment and supportive living programs.

US veterans can get special psychological help and counseling services for transitioning to civilian life without falling into substance misuse. They teach effective strategies for coping with PTSD.

I understand Hackettstown Hospital gets a bad reputation, but something that people have to understand is, it depends of the time and day and basically your luck. Not all hospitals holds up a 100% 5 star rating. Also not everyone who's had a good experience would think to add a good review on Google for a hospital, it's usually the bad that motivates someone to leave a review. In the past 15 years I've lived in hackettstown I've had a decent to great experience at hackettstown hospital, probably been there a handful of times for myself, my spouse, my kids and even when I had to accompany friends. The staff and doctors are usually nice and professional, the only annoying thing would be wait times but that's normal in hospitals. Sometimes it was fast. Anyway my point is I'd like to thank doctor Scott and the hospital staff who helped taking good care of my 7 year old autistic non verbal daughter, thank you for your patience, and care to make sure she was comfortable and that I was alright. You guys were awesome! (Date seen was 07/18/2025 in the am)

Accepted Insurance

Hackettstown Medical Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Group-based psycho-education and therapy is provided during a three-hour period, three to five days a week. Because patients in our program return home after treatment sessions, they can more quickly begin the transition to everyday living situations and challenges. Hackettstown Medical Center offers an intensive outpatient program specifically for those with drug and alcohol issues.

outpatient iconOutpatient

Overcoming a drug or alcohol addiction is a difficult process, but through careful evaluation and individual determination, it can be accomplished. At Atlantic Behavioral Health, their outpatient chemical dependency programs help adults and adolescents overcome substance abuse issues, while remaining at home, at school or on the job.

inpatient iconInpatient

Inpatient mental health programs are designed to help stabilize those with mental illnesses. At Atlantic Behavioral Health, they encourage personal empowerment among their hospitalized patients through self-awareness and education. After a successful treatment, patients can return to the care of their psychiatrist or clinician and when necessary, may be referred to an intensive outpatient program.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

In the event of a psychiatric emergency, Atlantic Behavioral Health offers crisis intervention services, including a 24-hour hotline, risk assessments and screenings, and community trauma assistance. Newton Medical Center is a state-designated Psychiatric Emergency Services and Screening Center, providing 24-hour emergency mental health care to patients of any age, both over the phone and in person.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Accommodations include two supervised group homes and several semi-supervised apartments. Priority is given to patients recently discharged from state psychiatric facilities that need a supervised living arrangement. A reasonable rent is required for participation.

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.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image

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.
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

Pet therapy can have many physical and emotional benefits for hospital patients, including reduced blood pressure and stress. Atlantic Health System's pet therapy program, Soothing Paws®, has approximately 80 pet therapy teams, each made up of a hospital volunteer and his or her trained dog, that visit patients and their loved ones in their hospitals.

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.

Eating disorders, like anorexia and bulimia, are serious illnesses that can result in both medical and psychological complications. Prompt treatment is essential, but parents are often uncertain if their child has an eating disorder and don’t know where to turn for help. The good news is that with the proper care, full recovery from these conditions is possible and the Pediatric Eating Disorders Center at Atlantic Health System can help. Their program is the only one in New Jersey that is exclusive to children ages 8 to 12 and adolescents ages 13 to 21 and includes parents in all aspects of care from the earliest stages of diagnosis through treatment.

Counseling that includes parental and family involvement is central to their program and highly encouraged. 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.

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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Diet can directly affect a person’s physical health, mental well-being and overall quality of life. Eating healthfully – ensuring that you get the nutrients you need to stay well and manage any health problems – can significantly decrease the amount of medication needed to treat a disease. Overlook Medical Center’s outpatient dietitians are experts in medical nutrition therapy, preventative medicine, current research findings, behavioral change strategies and mindfulness training.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. When a traumatic or catastrophic event occurs – whether at school, work, the neighborhood or larger community – Atlantic Behavioral Health is there to help survivors, witnesses and their families begin the healing process.

The doctors were knowledgeable and receptive with the exception of a few who didn’t read my chart and the ENT who was a total disappointment. My neck looked like I had mumps and he asked why he was there. The nurses went above and beyond again with the exception of one who had no empathy for elders, made me wait 45 mins-1 hour for simple requests. Another, who was otherwise good totally butchered my arm inserting an IV. I was given misinformation in the ER. I have a port and was told they couldn’t use it to access bloodwork. After my arm swelled and was raw from jabbing over and over, the nurse in inpatient noticed my port. To the contrary, they used it from then on without incident. This nurse never got the needle into the vein. The medication didn’t go into my blood, it shot out under my skin. Burning was unbearable and painful. The nurse lacking in patient care that I mentioned earlier, clearly was in some sort of power struggle to exert she was the boss. I found her controlling and smug behaviors bordering on abusive. The receptionists were good except on my last day. This person did not answer calls so I went out to the desk and he/she was no where to be found. God forbid you questioned them, your medicine would be withheld for an hour. They need to retrain nurses on how to insert an IV. I got tired of excuses about collapsing veins. If they know what they are doing, the IV process goes smoothly, collapsing veins or not. They also need to do something about the insulting and smug attitudes of senior nurses and how they treat patients. Overall, my stay of 5 days was good. There are always a few bad apples in every basket. I had one additional concern of which I’ve not experienced in Morristown, Hackensack or St. Clares medical centers. The additional service providers were locked into strict time management schedules with total disregard for patients. I was receiving a nebulizer treatment. The patient transition person insisted on asking me questions and interrupting my treatment. When I told her to stop interfering with treatment she got all nervy and said in an irritated voice that she was trying to help. I beg to differ. The only person she was helping was herself to meet her deadlines. She was however, ultimately the only one providing additional services, e.g. PT, OT, speech, who came back at a later time to complete transition services. The other therapists removed me from their schedules never bothering to perform services, but I would guess they received payment for stepping in and out of my room. The second speech therapist being the worst. The first, who was as on rotation from another hospital, was excellent. The second wanted to watch me eat a meal and when I said I’d prefer eating in private could she come back and watch me eat with applesauce, she removed me from her roster without any regard for the patient’s well being. If I hadn’t been hospitalized a number of of times in other hospitals, I wouldn’t have known any different. However, in no other hospital did staff disrupt meals due to inflexibility in meeting their own needs. These service providers were selfish and had no respect for patients’ privacy especially when the only highlight of laying in a hospital bed is unfortunately mealtime.

The care I received at HMC this weekend was excellent. Caring & compassionate nurses, highly qualified drs & exceptional housekeeping staff. I am very grateful for their professionalism & while I hope I never have a recurrence of kidney stones, I would not hesitate to go to HMC.

I was on travel and staying at my son's home in Hackettstown. A family member developed a medical condition in the early morning hours and we rushed to the hospital emergency room for treatment. The staff was wonderful! They were medically proficient, friendly, and rapidly addressed the problem. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone.

Went in for cellulitis around my eye I couldn’t even open my eye anymore as it got worse. Talk about painful, it was excruciating . It got worse so my urgent care dr recommended I come to the emergency room. They wouldn’t even give me tylonol for the pain. There’s no compassion here and they are not thorough. I felt dismissed as they pushed me away telling me to go to a primary doctor. The dr accused me of wanting narcotics like I was scum. If you see dr Tanisha Arora, run heck they will push you out.
