My doctor was incompetent, instead of getting better I began with some withdrawal symptoms. When I talked about that with him, he took it personal and dismissed without a prior written intervention. They suck
About Hudson Behavioral Health
They’re accredited by the Joint Commission, which emphasizes their commitment to providing quality health services. The different services that Hudson Behavioral Health offers to clients include withdrawal management, residential treatment, and peer support services. They also provide recovery support groups and Narcan training.
Every client will meet with a nursing staff and physician to determine if withdrawal management will be necessary. If it’s determined to be necessary, clients will start taking medication to help manage their symptoms. You’ll also be participating in counseling within the first few days of detox. In residential treatment, patients will either participate in medium or high-intensity treatment for addiction. The home you’ll be staying in is located on a secluded campus that will provide you the peace to focus on your recovery.
The treatments you’ll receive include daily group therapy sessions, alternative therapy groups, and peer support. Clients will also participate in individual counseling once a week and have the option to have family sessions when appropriate.
Hudson Behavioral Health also has a lower-intensity residential facility that will continue to prepare you to live a sober and independent lifestyle. Some holistic treatments available to clients include yoga and the Drumming Off Drugs program. This program involves relating recovery analogies to what clients learn during drumming sessions to help boost self-esteem and reduce anxiety.

I was at hudson but one thing I can say is Ranada p is the best counselor ever she deserves 5stars..Lakevis T.
I spent two weeks at Hudson for alcoholism before deciding to leave against medical advice to find a better managed facility more structured to address my mental health (the cause of my drinking).
For the most part, the staff was amazing, from the kitchen to the counselors and the amazing Dr. B.
Unfortunately, they do not monitor what goes on in the house very well, especially after working hours (2nd shift techs are early 20’s college students and not very well respected by clients sadly) so if you receive harassment, unless they see it, they must remain “objective”.
My first week was great, but by my second week a few of the other female clients were doing everything they could to get me to leave or kicked out.. It became counterproductive to my recovery. I was screamed at (no exaggeration lol) called names and threatened on more than one occasion by a client for reasons I still don’t know.
The daytime, female tech Candy (who is BEYOND wonderful!!!) is the only person with any control over these women. When she’s not there, they run wild.
I took all of the proper steps and precautions to avoid the trouble but was repeatedly told to ignore it and not respond. My patience eventually wore out and I chose to leave to avoid a potential physical altercation As I realized the “powers that be” were not going to do so. I requested a transfer and was told they did not do that there. After making my own arrangements to leave suddenly they COULD transfer me to another facility, but I would have to wait two days. At that point, my mind was already made up and I left that morning.
When I spoke with my counselor the evening prior he attempted to ease my mind by saying “everyone has been dealt with” but that clearly did not discourage them. He then attempted to gaslight me by claiming other staff had complained about me. I knew exactly who he was speaking of which is Daphne. Daphne‘s a counselor that I watched multiple times bait clients into arguments and even bully one in particular in my opinion. I worked with her previously at Cove Recovery and while I am not one to look for racism I felt like she was biased against me due to my color being different than hers. While I don’t think she’s a bad person I do not think she is a good counselor, especially when people are in such sensitive states coming off of substances. I knew immediately he was referring to an instance earlier that day in which Daphne yelled at the class to sit down and when everyone started getting up, I asked if we were allowed to get up. She basically yelled and said that I was being disrespectful and smart mouth when in reality, I was just trying to make sure we were doing what we were supposed to do.
The moral of the story is to make sure you thoroughly research the facility you choose to go to because not all are the best for your recovery, some seem like they just want to keep the beds full
Edit to add: also, their website says 30 day to 60 day program but if your insurance will pay for 60 days, they will keep you there for 60 days. Once you get there, it is very hard to get out.
Second edit to add: they do not have a detox protocol or unit, people experiencing withdrawal symptoms are thrown right into general population. On my last night there I had two new clients put in my room who proceeded to throw up in the trash cans, down the side of a dresser, toilets, and sinks all night without cleaning up after themselves or having a nurse come in to check on them. That was my final straw
Last edit I swear lol: by the end of my first week, I had developed a heat rash. I repeatedly asked to see the doctor right up until the day I left and aside from a nurse sending him a few pictures, I never did. It progressively got worse and was covering my chest, arms, legs and stomach by the time I left. Thankfully, I was able to get treatment after leaving and it is now resolving.
The staff for the most part were very helpful.I explained that I wanted to go to a sober living house where I could go to work.i was told that because of the waiting list I couldn't stay long enough to get into a place in Salisbury.they said the Acquila house would accept me.I specifically asked how long before I could go to work.they said 30 days.I get to Acquila and it's a 90 day program....they knew what they were doing...smfh

Accepted Insurance
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.
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.
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.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Inpatient
Hudson Health Services offers Residential Treatment at their campus in Salisbury, Maryland. Known as ASAM Level 3.7, or Medically Monitored Intensive Inpatient Services, this level of care is appropriate for patients with co-occurring medical, emotional, or behavioral disorders that are severe enough to require 24/7 monitoring, but not severe enough to warrant a hospital admission. Withdrawal Management services are often coupled with this level of care.
Aftercare Support
Clients receiving support in a rehab aftercare program typically partner with their case manager and care team to identify and access the services that best align with their recovery needs and goals. Rehab aftercare services are designed to evolve with clients' changing needs to promote their long-term sobriety. Care modalities are highly customized and may include a range of medical, mental health, and social service resources, including peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction.
12-Step
They believe that participation in a recovery support group is one of the determining factors in how succesful a person is in their recovery journey. They also believe that there is no one size fits all program to meet the individual needs of their patients. Therefore, Hudson Health Services provides a variety of recovery support groups on their treatment campus, including Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, SMART Recovery, and Celebrate Recovery.
Sober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
24-Hour Clinical Care
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
Medically Assisted Detox
Upon admission to Hudson Health Services, all patients meet with our physician and nursing staff to undergo a comprehensive medical evaluation to determine if withdrawal management services are necessary. Withdrawal Management, also known as detoxification, is the process of using medications to stabilize patients and address the physical withdrawal syndrome that is not only uncomfortable, but also potentially dangerous in some cases.
Withdrawal Management is a necessary first step for many patients. Because we individualize the process to meet each person’s needs, patients will be closely monitored by medical staff during the period of withdrawal management.
Intensive Outpatient
Clients who are leaving inpatient rehab often choose to transition into an intensive outpatient program (IOP) to receive high-level support as they reintegrate into their home, workplace, and community. Intensive outpatient rehab also benefits those at risk of relapse. Clients typically participate in nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly, with modalities ranging from psychotherapy to addiction and recovery education. Many programs also provide medication assisted treatment (MAT) and complementary care, such as nutrition counseling, and acupuncture.
Partial Hospitalization Program
Commonly known as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term intensive rehab option designed to provide treatment during the day and you're able to return home at night. PHP treatment offers structured programming, including individual and group therapy, typically meeting 3-5 days a week for 6-8 hours per day. PHP duration averages around 90 days, with some programs offering amenities like transportation and meals.
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.
Once a person has become addicted to a substance, drug rehab in Maryland is often necessary to overcome that addiction. These programs provide the tools individuals need to manage the physical, mental, and emotional issues involved and begin a successful recovery journey.
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.
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.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
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
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.
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
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.
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.
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.
Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.
Cognitive behavioral therapy in Maryland emphasizes your current life rather than what has happened in the past. Your therapist will help you develop methods to deal with current and future challenges so you can cope in healthy ways that don't involve substances.
Four key principles guide motivational interviewing. These are empathy, self efficacy, rolling with resistance, and developing discrepancy. These techniques allow the client to examine their motivations for change, identify discrepancies in their current situation and future goals, and feel empowered to make changes to reach their goals.
