Reviews often seem emotional and the hospital is rated accordingly. Objectively, I have to say the everyone who took care of my husband, from room cleaners, nurses, care managers, techs to doctors, was extremely professional and showed genuine interest in getting him healthy again. I could not have been more impressed, thank you.

I spent eight long days at Mary Washington healing from a brutal domestic violence incident. The care and patience and kindness I received from every staff member on Four South was unmatched by any stay I’ve had in my life. I’m sixty one and had many stays from the doctors to the sweet ladies that kept my room spotless to the accommodating kitchen staff it was pleasant. They didn’t let me suffer in pain. The food was shockingly good. I felt like royalty. The care I was given had as much to do with my healing as the medicine I was given. I’m off to a rehabilitation center now and will miss them. If I could give them ten stars I would give them ten stars. I’m giving them ten stars in my heart.

This place is a disaster. They were trying to detox my grandpa when he hasn't drunk any alcohol in years(we told them multiple times that was not the case); as a result, they failed to notice signs of a stroke, causing him to have one there and no one noticed 😡 They also treated him poorly leaving him in a dirty adult dipper for hours even though he called for them so he can use the restroom. He also caught nurses talking bad about him and laughing at him. That is beyond cruel, especially when we could have lost him. How would they feel if a family member was in the hospital close to deaths door. This place is beyond unprofessional!!!!!

Accepted Insurance

Mary Washington Behavioral Health works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

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.

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.

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

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient rehabs offer community-based addiction treatment, enabling clients to remain in their homes while in recovery. Their levels of care typically include partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), standard outpatient, and sober living programming. Most outpatient facilities offer addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training. Integrative programs include evidence-based holistic therapies, such as meditation, music therapy, and massage. Facilities specializing in alcohol and/or opioid addiction may also provide medication assisted treatment (MAT).

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.

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

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

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 helps you understand and manage the emotional and physical responses that often follow witnessing or experiencing traumatic events. Using therapeutic interventions, your therapist works with you to reframe that experience, which in turn reduces your anxiety and helps you regain control over your life.

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.

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.

Probably the worst hospital experience of my life. My father was admitted and being treated for a bowel obstruction on Thursday, 7/10/25 through the ER. On that Friday evening, I called his floor nurses station 3 times. The person I spoke with was extremely rude, hung up on me, and I never got the update I had requested. On Sunday 7/13, we spent all day having X-rays done, and redone, and waiting for results. At 6:30 that evening, we were informed that they hadn’t been able to find his X-rays and the radiology department was under new management. Have to wonder how many other patients and families were affected. Waited another full day to have a second Ng tube and PIC line put in place - radiology assisted. Did not go well at all, my father removed both at some point over night. He was discharged after a week, never improved but continued to decline in every way. After a fall, was back in hospital until discharged to hospice. Don’t expect empathy, help, or qualified care from every practitioner there - some are excellent but they are few and far between.

We went to Emergency room in the middle of the night and found out my girlfriend needed surgery. As you can imagine she was nervous but she had the best care!!! Everyone was amazing to put her at ease but especially Maria from same day surgery aftercare. Maria treated her so well from just talking to her to making her little peanut butter sandwiches to eat. Thank you so much Maria!!!

Response from the owner

We're truly grateful you chose Mary Washington Hospital during such a stressful time, and we're thrilled to hear that your girlfriend received compassionate and attentive care. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Maria and the entire Same Day Surgery Aftercare team — gestures like hers make a big difference. Wishing your girlfriend continued healing and wellness!

We have been at Mary Washington many time and the care we received was excellent,however my husband and I are 89 and 85 and the parking for handicapped is terrible and the valet service was a great help since we both have difficulty walking and both of us are handicapped.

Response from the owner
Thank you for your feedback and kind words about the care you received. We're glad the valet service was helpful, and we appreciate you sharing your experience. Your input is valuable as we continue working to improve accessibility for all our patients.

I was a patient in room 2022. I have to give recognition to my nurses Jahnae and Joshua. They were the absolute best. Very professional, caring and knowledgeable. Awesome bedside manner. My CNA Wida was great as well. It speaks volumes when nurses and CNA take pride in their patients and their work ethics instead of a paycheck. Jahnae just completed nursing school and Joshua is a traveling nurse, just OUTSTANDING!!! Wida I hope will consider moving up the ladder and pursue her nursing career. Thank you for such outstanding care!
