Drug Rehab Centers in Covington, Louisiana

I write this review after having a horrific experience at Oceans s Behavioral Health in Hammond in July of 2023. (I encourage you to read my review for them before allowing your dementia family member go there!)When my dad was sent again to geriatric psych at Lakeview, I was scared we were about to experience the same thing again, especially after seeing the reviews on here!However, our experience at Lakeview was completely different. My dad spent 4 weeks at Lakeview over the Christmas holidays and beyond. I was able to visit him between 3:30 and 4:30 everyday. The facility was very clean and simply resembled a hospital setting. I was escorted to his room each day but was able to puts eyes on other patients, the group room, the nursing station, etc. while there. The doors to patient rooms were open and I never saw anything disturbing or anyone tied to a bed as one lady who left a review wondered about. I never heard any shouting or yelling by staff or patients. It simply just reminded me of a normal hospital setting.I visited my dad almost every single day during his four weeks there. In those visits, I often checked my dad s body for marks and gauged how he felt about the staff that often dropped in to say hello when I was there.My dad seemed clean, generally content, awake and aware, chatty and friendly with the staff. Everyone who interacted with he and I were very kind.Kianti (Tay) who escorted me daily was the sweetest gentleman and my dad really enjoyed him.Overall, I was pleased with the care he received. As a caregiver to a Dementia patient with behavioral issues it s tough to be their advocate and protect them. I would allow my dad to go back to Lakeview if the need arises. I hope this review helps someone else.

Very Caring Staff! Patients come first! Compassionate Care 24/7. I am very thankful for the excellent care by family member received. The only place I would recommend!

Wonderful Facility, Wonderful Staff! All private rooms. I would recommend Lakeview Behavioral Health in Covington LA to anyone who needs treatment. The Staff respected me.

It took a while for me to decide to post a remark, but I felt that I had to say something. I was a patient there last June because of something stupid I did because of the pain I was in because of my back. At first I was very upset and unruly. But after being there for a couple of days I did notice a couple of things that are definitely NOT the faculty's fault. The doctors, nurses & medtechs did the best they could with what they had. These people come in to help, because they care. But the one thing I did notice was that the staff was over-worked, under-staffed, under-appreciated & I don't know, but probably underpaid. They relied on donations, when it came down to certain clothes, shoes & I remember how short they were on pillows. After being discharged, my husband & I donated some items for them to use. The thing that gets me angry is after reading some of these reviews, it has become apparent to me how important that the Gov. steps in and do something about the lack of care there is for mental health. I read in a comment that their loved one was dumped like trash and she had dementia. While there myself and one other person tried to help the medtechs, when they needed some. These people are human beings, NOT TRASH and shouldn't be treated like it, due to the facility being so short staffed. You know, it's a shame we don't learn from the Asians on how they care for their loved ones. But like I said my personal experience taught me a lot about facing my inner demons, while trying to help the medtechs. Here's a thought!!! Maybe if you treated your staff the way that they should be treated, then you would not have so many unhappy family members of the patients.

Our developmentally disabled client was admitted last week. I can’t say enough about how awesome this facility has been. At most past facilities our other clients were in we had such a hard time advocating for them. Beacon has been easy to communicate w all the treatment team. We were included and informed regarding his care plan. They were able to make him feel safe. I’ll be requesting this facility if we ever need an admit for our DD consumers. Thank you Beacon!

Helped me with a lot

It's saved my life and my fiance life!

I'm so glad I found this place. I was addicted to opioid pain medicine really bad. I wouldn't even get out of the bed if I didn't have at least 2 pills to take. I spent a ton of money, buying pills from anybody and everybody. Then my grandson was born. It is true that babies will change your life. And he did. The 1st time we looked at each other, he was probably 3 days old, but we looked into each other's eyes, and I knew at that moment that I would be raising my 2nd grandson. The only thing I could do was get clean. I absolutely had to get clean. I started making phone calls, and talking to people and all that led me to the methadone clinic on Pride Ave. out by the airport. My 1st day was July 1st, 2013. My grandson was born March 27th 2013. It took me 4 months to find the best drug addiction center that I knew would work for me. I got custody of my grandson when he was a little over 2 years old. But he had been with me almost all the time since he was born. Cash just made 11 years old and he still lives with me and I'm still attending the methadone clinic, it's called BAART Program. I'm kinda scared to stop taking the methadone because I suffer from depression, anxiety, Rheumatoid Arthritis and a few other things, and I know myself well enough to know that if I stop taking the methadone, I will find something else to take. So, I'm gonna stick with the program because it has worked so well for me. I honestly believe that anybody with an addiction to opioids should try this clinic. The doctor and the counselor's there are fantastic. No body judges you, and if you don't feel like talking a lot, you don't have to. But when you get ready to talk about your problems and what led you to get addicted to opioids, they will listen without interrupting and they will listen to you, and they will help you. I know this, because I've been there for real. You will love yourself and everyone else when you get clean, I promise you that. You will feel so much better about yourself and your life. You will have a desire to do something good with your life. It's just great to be free from addiction. Blondie Suzanne.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PROGRAM,THE PEOPLE THERE ARE AMAZING AND ACTUALLY GO OUT THERE WAY TO SHOW THEY CARE,MS TONYA AND MS MEGAN HAVE BEEN SUCH A INSPIRATION IN MY LIFE SINCE STARTING THIS CLINIC 2 MONTHS AGO.I THANK GOD EVERYDAY FOR PUTTING THIS PROGRAM AN PEOPLE IN MY LIFE. THANX TO ALL THE STAFF AT BAART PROGRAM IN HAMMOND...SINCERELY JANET WARD😘❣️💯

Oh my way to living better feeling better One day one

Professionalism and care combine to make this a wonderful place.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this place. I have been a patient since before Katrina. I get reminders about appointments, calls from the pharmacy to check each month how I am doing with medications before they send them to me. My counselor is a very nice person that goes out of there way to make me comfortable and happy. My doctors a little rough around the edges, but the job gets done and done right. Update 7/23 New doctor and very nice

I was thinking about this place today for some reason. I spent 29 days here in 2015 or late 2014. Anyway I remember it was a very good program. The scenery is beautiful and many long walks around the facility. I was glad we could smoke as well. I remember going to the local Catholic Church nearby. Oh yes and the food was delicious. Females were there as well, but no peeking lol. Overall a good place if you wanna sober up and stay off the destructive path.

I believe I stayed there for a month. Was treated well, attendants were great. Food was good. Attendants treated me well.

This place changed my life. It saved my life! If you or a loved one needs help, this is the place to go. The physical structure needs help but the mental health care is wonderful. As I said, it saved my life.

Went there for most of my childhood for ADHD and Anxiety treatment. Dr. Colomb is a very good doctor.

We love Dr. Colomb!

Applegate literally saved my life.been going there for 2 and half years..but they do need to hurry up with the insurance.....

They DO NOT take healthy blue like the website says. I have been going here for about 4 months now and they just keep saying they are waiting on the paperwork or something. They should really take it down from the website and contact medicaid and let them know they are not taking it cause healthy blue is the one who gave me this doctors info cause they said that they took my insurance but that wasn't the case. Other than that I love applegate recovery and all the employees , everyone is really nice and understanding.

I love this place. Very caring compassionate people. I've had a very hard time finding Dr's like this. Plus they offer counseling. I don't share my story a whole lot cuz I feel I'm being judged. The counselor & the Dr very easy to talk to. I recommend this place to every addict out there. Thank you so much

I think these people just changed my life. After a horrific experience in a different state I have been so reluctant to reach out for help. From the very first phone call two weeks ago to my appointment today every woman that I have been in contact with at this facility has been absolutely life-changing. Thank you so much for making me feel like I am valid and worth the time and effort.

Thank u for ur help feels like light switch brain cutting on I feel great body getting good

Right on the mark no b******* Diana love Dr cash! Love di

they have helped me so much along the way in my mental disorder battles. Thank you doctor Chloe and the staff. Very reliable and helpful!

I've been coming here off and on for years now for help with my depression and everyone is so kind. Kathy is an amazing doctor and the only person I'll let prescribe me medication for mental health.

Love how helpful all of their endless resources are. All of the staff that I ve encountered have been very supportive, polite, personable , & respectful of each person s individual needs. I appreciate that our community has such available resources.

It is a good rehabilitation center because the program seems to be very good. It would be best if they had a little more organization to answer the calls
