About Corewell Health Ludington Hospital

Corewell Health Ludington Hospital is a full-service hospital serving Mason County in Michigan. It is situated along Lake Michigan in Ludington. They have 49 beds and offer inpatient, surgical, and outpatient services as well as a 24-hour emergency department.

Their outpatient psychiatric care department supports clients with conditions such as ADHD, drug or alcohol addiction, anxiety and depression. Doctors diagnose, treat and prevent all kinds of mental, behavioral and emotional challenges.

You can get a referral from your primary care physician or by contacting this department directly.

Supportive Psychiatric Treatment in Ludington

Treatment takes place in a comfortable office-based setting. However, if you’re not able to function successfully at work or home, you can be admitted for inpatient psychiatric care.

You’ll receive compassionate and skilled care from a team of board-certified psychiatrists. If you are struggling with a substance use disorder, these health care professionals might set you up with medication-assisted treatment (MAT). MAT is an effective way to rewire your brain to lessen cravings and help you think clearly, especially in the earlier stages of your recovery from opioid addiction or alcohol addiction.

In addition to medication, talk therapy is often really beneficial to help folks set goals and make peace with the past. I like that you can see your practitioner in person or also virtually for more convenience.

Psychiatric Testing for Missouri Residents

Corewell Health Ludington Hospital also offers psychiatric testing. This comprehensive evaluation can help provide you with a diagnosis for any emotional, developmental or behavioral disorders so you can better understand your needs and get effective treatment.

Symptoms can vary and so these specialists have customized testing processes to ensure you get the right diagnosis. Your evaluation may include your medical history, family history, bloodwork and more. During your psychiatric interview, you’ll discuss your behaviors and symptoms and how they affect your life, work, and relationships.

Went to ER for unknown condition. After multiple tests it was determined I tested positive for lime disease. Also been determined A1 diabetes and high blood pressure. I am posting this review to say thank you for the amazing nurses and doctor. The attention given to me made me feel I was their only patient. I don't remember all names, but I assure you they seriously took care of me. Lots of test,pokes and IVs. Not singling any of them out any means. But Scott my night nurse kept me comfortable and we had a great conversation when I needed someone to talk to. Im hopeful with meds and change in diet I will be on the road to recovery. So I hope Scott see this.

For years and many visits later, I can honestly say I'm proud of how things turned around. You can tell a concerted effort was made. Every employee I have encountered has been kind, patient, and understanding. The services received were great. I wish I could Daisy award the whole crew. (2021ish) I'm editing my response here: the last time I was sent to the ER was pretty great, but it was also for an easy procedure. They must be working on their bedside manner. (Approx. 2019) My emergency room visits left much to be desired. My first, I arrived with chest pains and known multiple health issues that would make that particularly scary. The doctor immediately decided it was anxiety, even as my bloodwork indicated something being very wrong. I was placed on one-to-one, like suicide watch, despite being no threat to myself. I mentioned my health issues, and she refused to explore whether they could be the cause. Next thing I know, someone from community mental health is in my room to interview me. I was sent home with no relief and a referral for therapy. My doctors, when I followed up, were horrified. I was told by more than one practice that if I think I can survive the drive, to go the hour north or south to a different hospital in an emergency. Well, two months later I am bleeding uncontrollably and my doctor orders me to the ER ASAP. Great. I get in right away and was treated terribly by my nurse. I could tell she was not listening while I spoke. Eye-rolling and tutting and all. While I sat there. Bleeding. After imaging and bloodwork showed that yes, I am bleeding and yes, my iron levels were real low now, the same nurse came in to tell me I was on my period "what did I expect?" (I was not, we discussed this, it's why I was there..), that her bloodwork is worse than mine so be grateful. I left, still bleeding out, with no instructions for follow-up care, but instructions from the doctor to come back if it continues. I said "It continues now, do I just turn around?" And the nurse said, "we still won't help you". You think I would have learned but I ended up back with an alarming symptom that has to do with a chronic disease I have, the recommendation that I'm seen ASAP by my doctor, along with some odd other symptoms that all popped up at the same time. The one alarming symptom was addressed very slightly, with nothing more than standard blood and urine tests which showed a problem but they couldn't figure out exactly what it was and were unwilling to explorer further as soon as they ruled out a kidney infection. The other symptoms were met with a literal shrug. I was told that I was merely dehydrated, though that made no sense because I had been drinking a whole lot of fluids. When I brought it up, the e.r. doctor agreed and said to call my doctor in the morning. I left with no answers and still sick. Again. So yeah, not going back if I can ever help it. I don't recommend it at all. Munsing and Mercy aren't that far, if you can make it.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Corewell Health Ludington Hospital works with several private insurance providers, 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.

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.

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

Clients receiving care at an outpatient rehab remain in their own homes and attend treatment as often as daily, depending on the level of need. Outpatient care generally consists of psychotherapy, addiction education, life skills training, and community reintegration support. Many outpatient treatment centers provide step-down care, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), sober living, and standard outpatient services. Some outpatient rehabs also offer ambulatory medical detox and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

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 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 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

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

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.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

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.

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.

My daughter flew over the handle bars of an EBike. When she arrived at the ER the trauma team was right there and did all the necessary things. I was impressed. But it must’ve been a shift change because after all the X-rays and CAT scan the DR said nothing was broken 🎉 He said he’d get her a DRs note for work and they’d clean up all her cuts and scraps. But none of that came. They just sent her home, where we had to clean out all the gravel and dirt and bandage her up. No DR note either. So great start but terrible follow through. I had hoped the hospital had gotten better but I can’t say that I’ve ever had a solid good experience in 30yrs. If you can go to Munson in Manistee, do it.

Every time I’ve had to call or be checked in from someone at the front desk, I’ve been met with uncaring and rude responses. I’ve been treated as an inconvenience several times now and that’s really unfortunate because the only reason I’ve been coming here is for my unborn baby’s sake… not my own. The nurses are usually always great, but the overall experience has not been.

I had an extremely negative experience with Rebecca Amy. Her attitude was disrespectful, unprofessional, and completely inappropriate. What bothered me most was the vulgar language and the way she spoke to us. There is a time and place for everything, but when you work in healthcare, people should be able to expect a basic level of professionalism, patience, and respect. Instead, my experience was the exact opposite. Someone dealing with patients may interact with people who are sick, scared, elderly, confused, or simply having a difficult day. That requires patience and basic human decency. Based on the behavior I personally witnessed, I would not feel comfortable dealing with Rebecca.. You can be knowledgeable at your job, but if you cannot communicate with people without being disrespectful, condescending, or using vulgar language, you have no business treating people that way. My experience left an extremely poor impression.
