My almost 14 year old son was there just shy of a week ago. My son suffers with anxiety and depression, a lot coming from how he is being treated at his father’s house. My son was diagnosed as high functioning autistic at age 3. My son who was on the kid side due to him not being of the age of 14, which I was happy with him on the kids side, but the doctor tried to blame his autistic diagnosis as reason he was having a meltdown which he was not instead of listening to the real reason and what was going on with my son. The day they discharge my son he was going back to his dad’s. They had to medicate him, and he kept banging his head against the wall and screaming, and I felt no one listened to him. How can you medicate someone and then discharge them an hour later. My son has been suicidal in the past and although he is not suicidal, but because of how he’s feeling, and no one is listening to him, he is vulnerable to having harm caused to him. I am really disappointed in this hospital. I really believe someone would listen to my son Instead of discharging him and blaming it on his autism diagnosis. My son clearly stated he did not want to be there, but he did not want to go to his dad‘s either my son was in a really hard place and for them not to listen to my son and try to find out the real reason to what was going on with him makes it hard for a kid to trust anyone, especially adults who are supposed to be there for them, I gave this two stars because there were a few staff that were nice when I was visiting my son and did seem to care about my son. There was one lady my last visit with my son. She kinda had a hard demeanor, and I know there have to be a balance, but I felt some compassion, especially to a child that was in the state that he was of not being able to be with his mother and had to go to a place that he’s so bad did not want to go with his father. I traveled every day for almost 5 days from Fort Walton Beach to Pensacola to see my son, not being listened to, heard or cared about as he should’ve been. I wanted to get the care he needed and now I’m trying to have to seek justice for him by other means this is not the place I would ever again with my son to go. No child should ever deal with abuse, especially by the hands of a parent.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Baptist Behavioral Medicine Center works with several private insurance providers, 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.

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.

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

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.

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).

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.

Drug rehab in Florida provides quality treatment to help individuals overcome dependency related to a wide range of addictive substances. Programs address both the physical and mental aspects of addiction in order to help you make a full recovery.

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.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

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.

Programs

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.

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

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.

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.

This place is shocking to me. Diminished my son's need for full mental health evaluation, inaccurate charting- claimed child needed discharge (diagnosed with flu while there) because he was "so sick" yet had not checked fever for 10+ hours - it was 104! Of course, now that is omitted from the chart record. Charted he actively participated in therapies with enthusiasm on days when he was actually quarantined and bedridden. Promised options for outpatient network to get us out the door - resources are not an option. Health care facilities that have this much inaccuracy and omission of details mislead families and are not helping our kids who are in mental health crisis. Dreadful place. Update…. Tried to meet with administration and facility leaders to discuss our experience in hopes that awareness is promoted. Baptist was not willing to meet.

I’ve been here three times, and this place has definitely gotten better with each stay. The most recent time I was here, they gave me a stuffed bear when I couldn’t have my own stuffed animal yet. When I couldn’t sleep, the night nurse even warmed up my blanket — that was really sweet of her. They don’t give you medication on the first day, which I don’t like, and you have to come in without wearing anything under the gown, including underwear. The food wasn’t the best, but the grilled cheese was really good. I was in the teens area, and I have to say, Luke was the best tech there. He gave the best hugs, was really nice, and helped me a lot during my stay. I also liked both of the Emmas — they were great techs too and really kind. The groups were good, and my favorite ones were the art groups. This place doesn’t deserve only 2 out of 5 stars — it actually helped me, and it didn’t traumatize me. My mom also likes that she can call and visit me every day. Overall, this is a good place if you need to to get stable.

A kid attempted suicide. They admitted the kid (as voluntary against DCF advice) and let them go a few days later. Kid attempted suicide again. They admitted the kid (as voluntary against DCF advice) and let them go a few days later. Kid attempted suicide again and is on the way back...the family locked down the entire house, spent all rent money on security measures, locked all medication in a safe. Somehow, no matter what DCF and family does, this kid keeps finding ways to hurt themself. This facility is not taking anything seriously and keeps pushing the kid out as fast as possible without any real help and without seeking long term placement for a child who is obviously suffering and begging for help.
