Best Oakland, CA Drug Rehab Centers

This place is so amazing. This was my very first time on a 72 hour hold in a psychiatric facility so of course I was really nervous. The floor staff is amazing and very comforting. There was times where I was emotional and they would give me a hug and give me words of encouragement. The nurses are so sweet and really listened to what I needed. I felt very seen and heard by my social worker and psychiatrist. They really worked with me on a great treatment plan. I felt very happy here. The food was really good and I was very well fed. All the staff here is amazing. I loved the activities they had for us. I got to do drawing, outdoor time, coloring, yoga, etc. I enjoyed my time here very much and if any of the staff are seeing this review I just want to say THANK YOU. You all truly saved my life.

This place receives people in their worst moments and provides resources to help people return to a higher level of function.

I was hospitalized here after going through Hell at two Kaiser EDs. The staff was wonderful and supportive. The staff helped me to feel comfortable and well cared for. My needs were met and I felt it was a safe place for those who needed a greater amount of care and supervision. The groups were very generalized for the wide range of patients whom were housed there. This is a facility that is meant for people who are at risk of hurting themselves or others and/or need to get regulated on their medications. It is meant to be a stepping stone to get more help after you are no longer a risk. I feel the perception of most of the poor reviews are from people who are fighting against what they need rather those who are seeking help.

When I came to California in October 2022, I had no clue as to what I was going to do. I had been homeless since 2017. My wife convinced me to come out this way. I came from southern Alabama. All of this assistance that I have been apart of is new to me. I wasn't looking for help, and I wasn't asking for help. I was placed with B.A.C.S. thru a homeless program in Berkeley. As of today I cab honestly say I am humbled. This place has been there when I came looking for help. They ask me how I'm doing on a regular basis. They are non judgemental about whom you might have been. They only see you as you are today. And that alone is the most blessed felling I have come to know. Thank you B.A.C.S. staff for doing all that you do.

BACS Townhouse is truly a Godsend. My wife and I were homeless as of August 2022. The Staff was nothing short of sweet and pleasant. The only drawback, is occasionally we would get some nut jobs in there that would get a little violent because they’re having a mental episode. As a matter of fact, I almost got into a fight with a couple of them. If you’re really serious about your business, and getting out of homelessness, this is the place for you. And my wife and I had a laser focus. Another advantage we had was the fact that we own a vehicle that we slept in while we were homeless. BACS hooked us up with a special kind of homeless shelter, that allowed us to park our car in the special kind of parking lot on 8th Street in West Oakland. There they would provide a table full of plastic bags full of survival food. Like potted meat, Vienna, sausage, and all sorts of assortment of chips. It was really a great set up. During the night they provided a porta potty at a place to wash your hands after you use it. Once a week, a truck would come in to the lot and provide both free showers and laundry world is a homeless people in the lot. They even provided service for your car in some cases. By September 2022, we were blessed to be hooked up with Holland house on W. Grand Ave. in West Oakland. And that magical day finally came in January 1, 2023 when we would move into our new apartment. And we’ve been here ever since. I think got a boat for Bay Area community services, where I write this review from our beautiful little apartment here in Oakland.😃

Needed services directed by understanding people. Keep up the good work
