About CADAS – Adult Treatment

Home to the nation’s first and largest military park, Chattanooga, Tennessee, also features CADAS Adult Treatment. This organization provides comprehensive care for adults battling addiction. You can access withdrawal management, a 28 day residential program, or intensive outpatient care to meet you where you are in recovery.

They work with most insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, Aetna and Ambetter. Even if you don’t have insurance, you can still get the support you need.

They accept all Texas residents, regardless of their financial situation. You may be eligible for various state grants to cover treatment fees.

Matrix Intensive Outpatient Group

What stands out most to me is their specialized intensive outpatient group. If you’re battling stimulant addiction or have experienced multiple relapses, you can participate in this comprehensive program to gain the tools for lasting recovery. Utilizing the Matrix Model, it focuses on six vital areas, including family education, relapse prevention, group and individual therapy and social support.

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) to Manage Withdrawal

Another great feature I noticed was their MAT program for alcohol and opioid use disorder. This 12 month targeted outpatient program combines medication management and therapy groups to help you reach recovery. They prescribe FDA approved medications, including buprenorphine and naltrexone, to manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings that can hinder recovery.

DUI School

I also think they’re DUI services seem beneficial. They offer a 12 hour Prime for Life Course for driving under the influence, underage possession of alcohol and driving while intoxicated charges. You’ll also complete an evaluation to receive referrals for addiction treatment, social services and mental health care. One reviewer credited the facility for helping to save their life.

Would give a zero. My son was there and they seemed to pick on him and looked for any reason to kick him out. He wanted to go to a half way house and was threatened that they would put Ama on paperwork. Really sad they do this. They should probably hire complete new stuff from management down

To the people talking bad about cadus, I assure you your being lied to by your loved ones, if your there wanting to find sobriety and achieve a life of recovery, these people will bend over backwards to help you get there, I just completed the residential 28 day program, yes there was rules, yes it's a very structured schedule, something most drug addicts and alcoholics are not used to, (including myself) Cadus helped save my life, I'm living a clean and sober life of recovery now, something I've dreamed of for over 20 years!!

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Inpatient

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

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.

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.

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.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Response from the owner

Kaitlyn, please call our Admissions team at ext. 108 or 131. They can assist you or connect you with a counselor. We cannot force someone to call another individual, but I hope you have connected and all is well. Being away from our loved ones while they begin a journey to recovery can be extremely difficult. You are welcome to contact me at ext 194 for further assistance.

My daughter was mistreated by this place. She was not given her medication and not called for meals. She was allowed to stay in bed all day and not checked on.. They signed her up for food stamps, which she never received. Her roommate disappeared from her room,, leaving all belongings behind and they did not attempt to find her. The only consistent thing they did were smoke breaks. These patients are not monitored at all. The staff was hateful to all the patients. My daughter signed herself out and came home. Please do not trust your loved one to this place. Its basically a homeless shelter and not a treatment center.

Over the past 60yrs, we have helped those who want help find help. We are always here to provide a path to recovery. Your comments appear to be filtered by your daughter, who was possibly not ready to begin her journey or do the necessary work. We take pride in the medical and clinical treatment given to our clients as they begin the process of changing their life. We will always be here when she is ready to begin again. If one does the work, then it works, but if they don't it won't.

I was excited to check into treatment! Was told if I wanted to check out give an 24 hour notice! Filled all appropriate paperwork out, was processed I’m assuming like regular! Everyone one was nice! As soon as I got on the unit my anxiety started I felt an overwhelming sense of unsafe energy I asked to go to my room! after some time I got my belongings then a roommate. My anxiety so bad I couldn’t control my body movements almost seizures! I could hear the techs screaming multiple times for cigarette breaks! Never heard them call for meals or meds! The two nights I stayed there I only ate one meal, the shower had no hot water , still couldn’t shake the unsafe feelings! So I went to a tech to give her a 24 hour notice! They told me to go get my bedding and pack my belongings and I made a phone call! they opened the door, basically kicking me out waiting two hours in the cold! That definitely added to my stress of not feeling safe in a busy city with no phone no money!

Stephanie, you are welcome to give me a call at ext 194 to discuss this further. I am truly sorry for your experience while at CADAS, but I am not fully convinced by some of your allegations. Over the past 60 yrs we have helped those who want help change their life and begin a life worth living. I am well aware that early recovery requires hard work. Our medical staff provides excellent care to all of our clients as do our many clinicians. We are here for you when you're ready to change your stars.

I called the drug abuse hotline. They sent me to CADAS. I showed up at my appointment time. And this black lady took me back. She was frustrated that I even showed up. Saying I didn’t have an appointment. When I explained I needed help now because my liver was shutting down from my drug abuse. She said that she had to keep open beds for clients that had insurance. So I would have to wait 30 days. I told her I did not have 30 days. She was extremely rude & said that there was nothing she could do. She made me feel useless. I was on the brink of suicide. This lady was in admitting & was horrible at her job. I ended up finding a detox clinic. They let me pay day by day. Until I got insurance. And I got my life back. No thanks to CADAS & that horrible black lady in admitting. They only help if you have insurance. Or lots of money. Which I would have had if I was clean. This happened back in 2014. My cousin has a family member that works here. They got him in immediately. He doesn’t have a job nor insurance. But he knew someone. Yes, I will call you. Because the way she treated me really upset me. So bad that I was suicidal. I’m so thankful I found a detox center. Not the route I wanted. But only option available besides just signing out of life. I even went to the er’s for help. They had no clue what to do. Except send me to CADAS. But that lady would not admit me. She told me to come back in 30 days. I was not going to make it. She basically had no empathy whatsoever. She said I put myself in this situation. She was beyond cruel…..

Dena, You are welcome to give me a call at ext 194, as I do have some questions. Our facility is approximately 80-90% indigent or provides services to clients without insurance, so we provide state grant funding for those clients. More importantly, I would like to discuss the way you were treated by the comments you provided. Having been in Chattanooga for the past 60 years could not be possible with employees being rude to patients. I look forward to your phone call. You also mention this took place in 2014?

As I scroll through the reviews as I sit on hold w/ cadas after staff being rude to me and giving me the run around(I have it all recorded)..I see im NOT the only 1 that's been disrespected by staff of cadas just to call in checking on a loved 1! I have my recordings of how unprofessional & will report this place everyday I'm disrespected. Staff was rude except 1 guy..even when I brought my loved 1 there. Doesn't make ppl feel welcomed or IMPORTANT! Worse rehab by far.

Crystal, I am very sorry you have been made to feel disrespected and, as you mentioned, treated rudely. I want to discuss this further when you have time and see if I can listen to your points and hopefully find some resolution. Please feel free to contact me at 423-756-7644 ext 194. I hope that you will share the recordings with me so that we may address these matters as a training and teachable application.
