About The Horsham Clinic

The Horsham Clinic is a behavioral health facility located in Ambler, Pennsylvania. They offer treatment to people with many different mental health conditions. They treat adults who suffer with substance use disorder. They specialize in treating people who are experiencing mental health issues and substance use disorders at the same time. They provide inpatient and outpatient services. They take private insurance and self pay.

When you come in for your assessment, you should bring all the clothes you will need for a five day stay including pajamas. You will not be allowed to bring electronics to treatment.

The intake specialist that you meet with will need to know your medical history, and they will need a list of all the medications you currently take. You will be given a drug test to determine if you qualify for inpatient treatment or if you should attend a partial hospitalization program (PHP). The PHP lets you go in for treatment during the day and go home at night.

If you need to detox, they have an around the clock medical staff that will monitor you constantly. They can prescribe medication if you need it to detox safely and comfortably.

People with dual diagnosis are often treated with dialectical behavior therapy which trains people to accept their reality and to change their attitude towards it. They also use experimental and recreational therapy. You may also engage in art or dance therapy while you are there. They also offer family therapy for people whose loved ones have been affected by their addiction. They even host some 12 Step meetings.

Stayed here for week. The beds and rooms were comfortable and quiet. The food was pretty good and I liked the beverage machine with orange juice and apple juice. The doctors and nurses were very friendly. They also gave you sleeping pills at night which I enjoyed.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
inpatient iconInpatient
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.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
Because the severity of withdrawal symptoms can fluctuate, constant monitoring under 24-hour clinical care in Pennsylvania is recommended for early recovery. As you undergo detox, medical staff will supervise your health and ensure severe symptoms do not develop or threaten your life. Professional counselors will also be available to treat mental and emotional health needs.

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 Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term 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-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.
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

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

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. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

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.

There are a lot of great things about this place but the staff make it a terrible experience. Horsham clinic sits on Acres of land with beautiful nature surrounding the entire place, but they never use the land for therapeutic purposes. Do you know how ass backwards that is? None of the staff have any clue whats going on, the majority of these people are just there to collect a paycheck. They don’t actually care about the well being of someone experiencing a mental health crisis. Everything was done wrong for me the second I came in, they had me in the wrong unit, because I was misdiagnosed at first. There were things that they had on my chart that were horribly incorrect and when it came time for them to set up aftercare for me the social worker that I had gave the place she set up aftercare for me the wrong insurance information, so after getting discharged I went to the appointment she had scheduled for me and they told me that they don’t take my insurance at all and the person who set up the appointment for me gave them a completely different policy. The only thing that’s good about Horsham Clinic is the food. They feed you half to death with all kinds of stuff so you’ll never go hungry. But they do not give you any sort of individualized therapy while you’re inpatient, it’s all nonstop group therapy back to back, the shove so much group therapy down your throat that by the end of it, you don’t wanna talk about your problems anymore or listen to other people repeat the same story a million times, it’s enough to drive you even crazier than what you probably were, when you thought it was a good idea to admit yourself. Horsham clinic is not worth the insurance money, for me it was a giant waste of time.

This place is an absolute joke! My mom has signed herself in here like 3 times already. She is going through bad mental health and is suicidal. All they do is keep her a week and send her home. Me and my sister keep recommending a group home for her or somewhere she can go. The doctor says I can take your recommendation but it's my decision. He's a complete piece of crap and doesn't know his butt from the hole in the ground.If you have someone who is dealing with bad mental health issues please don't send them here because they are not going to do anything to help them.

I highly recommend Horsham clinic. The Doctors, the Social Worker, the Nursing staff, the technicians, the therapy group leaders and even the housekeeping staff were all an integral part of my Mental Health recovery. All employees displayed kindness and respect and went above and beyond the call of duty. It takes a special group of people to do all that the Horsham clinic does with the utmost patience and understanding. ALL of these folks were a blessing and I am eternally grateful. I received the necessary treatment leading to a healthy recovery. It just wasn’t what they said or did, it was how they made me feel. Thank you, thank you, thank you Horsham clinic. I will never forget your compassion and understanding as I left feeling whole again.

My daughter was self-admitted to Horsham Clinic due to suicidal ideation. She had previously been inpatient at another facility due to a suicide attempt so this was not her first experience being inpatient at this type of facility. Within 12 hours of her admission to Horsham, she signed herself out due to rude, unprofessional and distasteful staff members. The night before she was to be released, she was physically assaulted by another patient and the staff member in the room did nothing to stop the girl from attacking my child. Another staff member came in from another room to stop the attack. They also messed up my daughter’s medications within those first 12 hours she was there and essentially drugged her to the point of feeling like a zombie. The next day when my daughter was to be released after the 72 hour hold, the psychiatrist refused the release despite the horrors my daughter experienced in her short time there. A plan of care was already in place for her release and I was not given any good reason why she couldn’t exercise her rights to be released. After fighting with them for about 7 hours, they finally got a 2nd opinion from another psychiatrist and that one agreed to release her. Ten days later I got a call from CYS saying I was reported for having my daughter living in a chaotic environment. Based on what she read to me from the report, I knew it came from the original psychiatrist at Horsham. I had to laugh as she was reading it considering my daughter’s entire experience at Horsham was nothing short of chaotic. After we discussed our living situation and her plan of care, CYS closed out the case as being unfounded. Do yourself and your loved ones a favor and absolutely never seek treatment from Horsham Clinic. The place should be shut down for how unprofessional and uncaring they are. They are definitely in it for a money grab based on other experiences I had from their business office.
