Hi, I’ve been on method on most of my adult life on and off. I’ve raised two children back-and-forth with method. I’ve never been in a program like this everyone there has treated me with empathy and kindness. Last week. I walked in, obviously an agony with two broken ribs, no paperwork no hospital records within minutes I walked out. I was treated with such respect and grace that I cried for two days as an addict we always get treated poorly always so it’s a given so when we are heard and it’s obvious and they feel us it’s paramount it puts you in a different space and time in your life and you realize You deserved this treatment all along I thank you kind of for Park. You are now my catalyst to begin a new journey, Cecile. I have 7 broken ribs and 3 of them were broken in 2 different places the Drs were amazed because I still went to work!

Family member was just released from Conifer Park. He did receive detox but no counseling on how to deal with living alcohol free. His caseworker never met with him. He got out and started drinking 12 hours after being released

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

24-Hour Clinical Care

For many different stages and therapies offered during addiction treatment, it's essential to offer 24-hour clinical care in New York. often involves medication treatment for drug or alcohol detox. The withdrawal symptoms experienced during detox can be dangerous, but having medical experts on-site around the clock means someone is always there to step in and provide emergency medical care when and if it is ever needed.

Medically Assisted Detox

Medical detox involves weaning your body off of addictive substances in a medically supervised environment. If you've become dependent on alcohol and/or drugs, quitting on your own can be uncomfortable and even dangerous. In medically assisted detox, a team of licensed medical professionals will help manage potential withdrawal symptoms, ensuring that you're as safe and comfortable as possible. This process typically takes about 5-7 days, although the length will depend on your individual needs.

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs offer an intermediate level of care for clients who do not require the kind of intensive supervision and support an inpatient program typically provides. Many clients transition into outpatient care immediately after exiting inpatient treatment. Others enter outpatient programs upon completing detox. Some facilities offer ambulatory medical detox for clients who do not require hospitalization. Most outpatient rehabs offer a combination of services, including addiction counseling, life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Conifer Park is a blessing for my community. There is a lot of negativity placed on these types of health centers. People should stop and reflect on the positive Conifer Park of Plattsburgh has shared with us. Think of the saved lives for example. When we speak of the good these clinics bring, the list is long.

Thank you so much for sharing this. It’s incredibly encouraging to hear from someone who sees the heart behind the work we do. You’re right — there’s often a lot of stigma around treatment centers, but we see the strength, resilience, and transformation that happen here every day. We’re grateful to be a part of this community and to serve people who are working hard to build better futures.

They gave me a medical discharge a week before I was able to get my certificate saying they didn't know how to help my mental health a week before I complete My ultimate goal I was sent home not for bad reasons because they don't know how to treat mental health patience that's a way to have somebody fall back into their addiction by playing games with them we're mental ill were not special ed this rehab should be ashamed of themselves and need to and should know how to handle mental health patients instead of giving people cigarettes then getting to understand them first... Ps some of the staff were great very helpful some of the staff look out for that's helpful is Brandon he works morning and night but more at night shift Matt is the top supervisor in the afternoon he is very great to work with very understanding and have a lot of patience for his patients I would say Miss Jones me and her had problems but she is thorough and she is 100% with the program and it will help you with yours go to C2 or A2

After 11 years of addition and attempts to recover on my own, I finally took the leap of faith to go into a rehabilitation institution. To be fully transparent; all things in life is going to be a result of “Your” efforts and work you put into, conifer park for me was the piece of the puzzle I felt I was missing to truly impact my recovery from the schedule, groups topics, the wide variety of leisure activities ( swimming pool, basketball, gym , piano , guitar, art etc) to the food menu and staff who were people that truly care. I am thankful for those I had the honor of crossing paths with that played a huge part towards my recovery thank you Joan, Tia, Dyrone, Wayne, Marquis, Maggie ( case manager) and Maggie ( horticulture therapist), Kerirah , Joe Jordan, Abby , Tracy, Chris, kitchen staff Chef Grant, Z, Ezra ( and the older dishwasher gentleman I can’t remember his name ),security team Mel and full team you all made a difference in my life I can’t put into words without tears of gratitude starting to pour. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO! - Rian Marcus Ramnarine

We’re honored to have been a part of your recovery, and we’ll be sure to share your gratitude with the team. Wishing you continued strength and success ahead — you’ve got this!
