About Prestera Health — Cabell County
Prestera Health has been serving West Virginia children, adults and families since 1967. Their Huntington location serves Cabell County. This clinic is on 8th Avenue in a red-brick two-story building. There is limited street parking and you may need to walk a minute or two during peak times.
Clients can access DUI programs, outpatient services, health and wellness and residential and transitional living for women.
Prestera Health provides a sliding fee scale to help everyone be able to access quality healthcare. They also assist those who have financial challenges by connecting them to financial assistance resources.
DUI Safety and Treatment Program
This program blends intervention, treatment and education. Participants will have at least 18 hours of classes over 6 weeks.
I like that clients will be monitored with random breathalyzer and urine drug screens. Each participant will make personalized goals and work towards them during this course.
Once you successfully complete the program, your driver’s license will be reinstated.
Women’s Transitional Living and Residential Treatment
The Huntington location is a CARF-accredited residential and transitional program for women and women with children.
Women will get safe and sober living accommodations as well as a range of other services such as parenting support, children’s treatment and prevention services, educational and vocational support, transportation assistance and more.
I like that they offer referrals for licensed child care, as well as medical and psychiatric services. Residents will be subject to random drug testing.
Rehab Score
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.
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
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 addiction causes psychological and physical damage through repeated and uncontrollable use of substances. Drug rehab in West Virginia focuses on providing a full continuum of care, from detox to aftercare, and treatment can take place in outpatient or inpatient settings, based on your needs.
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


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.
