The wait time is ridiculious, sometimes we have to wait three hours to be treated seriously.

I work in healthcare so I get it . I understand how busy it can get and or be. However, when I came in there were two other people in the waiting room. The check in female was extremely sweet. The nightmare began once we got in the room. The doctor needs to show more compassion. Especially when it comes to her facial expressions. When someone doesn’t feel well the last thing they want to see is you making faces as if they are dumb. My child is 14 yrs old and as she is explaining her issues the facial expressions given by the provider gave I don’t care and this is a waste of her time. Again, I work in the medical field I would not have brought my child in if I thought it was nothing. The nurse who drew my daughters blood sweet lady but why after you finished drawing my daughters blood would you stick the used needle in the mattress of the bed? That’s beyond nasty and unsanitary. Just put the safety on the needle and dispose of it. Even if you can’t dispose of it immediately lock the needle. It’s very easy to do. Then you are left in a cold room without a single update. We got here at about 9pm, the doctor came in fast but then it took an hour to draw my daughters blood and an hour to receive the results. We are currently waiting for a CT scan which we were told we’d get an hour ago still nobody has come. I can here everyone out in the hall laughing and talking. At least provide updates and make sure the patients are ok. Also, it’s ok to speed up a little. The hours in between are beyond ridiculous. I wouldn’t return nor would I recommend anyone to come here. It seems like it would be quick as empty as they are but it’s the longest process ever. It seems like everyone here is in training or the twilight zone. This was a horrible experience.
Update: At 11:08 pm we were told we’d get a CT scan. It is 1:05 am and we are still waiting for a CT scan. At this point I requested my daughter’s lab results so we can go elsewhere. To sit here for 4 hrs without a hi, are you ok, can I offer you water is insane. I feel like a prisoner sitting here. This by far is the absolute worst emergency room in Maryland!!!! Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere. They do not care about the patients. This facility is only here to collect money.
Another update: Og not sure if I spelled that right I believe he was the charge nurse. He is AMAZING!!! It’s nice to see someone who is kind and actually cares. He started my daughter’s IV, he was very gentle explained the entire process and was just a ray of sunshine. Thank you to him!!!!

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.
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.
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.
Partial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.
Aftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
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.
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
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.
Clinical Services
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.
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.
