The facility lacks compassion, empathy and anything that resembles Gender Affirming Care. Teens are ignored, preferred pronouns and names are ignored. Parent questions are not tolerated and if you ask a nurse for help they say “you want me to do what now?” We waited 3 days for a doctor to call us about our kiddo that had been admitted. If you want a place for holding, go here, if you want real help, call New Oakland or anywhere else!
You kept my friend longer than you should have out of incompetence and then used her distress as an excuse to keep her in there longer.
You were supposed to help her NOT want to kill herself. You did the exact opposite.
I don’t believe any psych ward could be rated very high because I mean not a lot of people enjoy going to a place like this.. my personal experience in the adolescent psych ward was actually pretty good! I met a lot of great people- patients and nurses/supervisors, the psychiatrist Dr farooqi (not sure if I spelt that right sorry) often mansplained things after you described an experience and you don’t get a whole lot of talking in with anyone, basically all the ask you is if you’re having suicidal thoughts, thoughts of self harm, or actually self harming and if not for a few days they let you go. When you first check in they give a large schedule but we don’t really stick to it, most of it is free time. It was honestly chill there and I enjoyed getting away for a bit and getting on meds but if you’re looking for more help instead of just a “vacation” then I don’t recommend. Most of the workers are very polite but there are a few who are insanely disrespectful and act as if you’re a criminal even if you did nothing wrong. A lot of the workers have different rules even though they’re all supposed to be following the same ones, some let you do whatever and some are very strict (you guys definitely need to work on that!) there are quite a few flies around which I found very gross, the cleaning women didn’t clean all that well and are in during the day for some odd reason. The food honestly was mostly disgusting and I feel bad saying that but I only ate the snacks and maybe three or four of the meals in my eight days I was there. I think it’s a good place depending on your situation but then again this was my first psych ward experience so I have no clue how any other psych ward is. They give us combs, lotion, 2 in 1 soap, toothpaste and toothbrush, as many towels we want, washcloths, disposable scrubs and gowns, disposable socks, and antiperspirant but the antiperspirant DOES NOT WORK LOL definitely get your regular deodorant from home asap! You can shower every night and morning if you’d like, you have a roommate unless there’s an uneven number of kids, boys and girls are segregated unless you’re in group, you stay in the dayroom all day unless you’re using the bathroom or switching dayrooms for group, both dayrooms have writing all over the walls like “help me” “get out of here” “country roads take me home” just silly things that kids wrote before and can be a little scary lmao, there is a tv in both dayrooms that you can watch all day after breakfast, I have to be honest and say that the place is quite dirty all around, ceilings have random splatters of things left unclean, we were not allowed to give each other our contact info to stay friends outside they will literally rip it out of your notebook if you have any contact info in there even insta or snap, obviously no phones, you get plastic utensils, if you talk to the dietician there aren’t very specific options of food basically just adding basic things, no one was very good at communicating with my family about things, they didn't get my parents consent or my own to draw my blood for testing, some rooms have shower curtains and some don’t, all around it’s kind of just run down and gross but I survived! It really depends on what you’re going there for. I did want to say that I love ms dj, ms chauntee, and ms Rochelle (once again not sure if I spelt any of those rights sorry!) -EDIT: They also signed me up for Medicare!!! That was amazing!

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.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
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.
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.
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).
Clients in inpatient rehab reside at the treatment facility while engaging in intensive daily treatment. Inpatient care is primarily designed for clients leaving detox, those in early recovery, and those at an elevated risk of relapse. Clients participate in intensive addiction counseling, which may include group and family therapy as well as one-on-one sessions. Recovery-focused life skills training is also often prioritized. Many inpatient rehabs offer evidence-based complementary therapies, such as yoga, meditation, art therapy, and animal therapy.
24-hour clinical care in Michigan is essential for certain phases of recovery treatment. During detox, many physical ailments related to the detox process can be lethal if not treated. Having medical staff available at all times provides the proper care for safe detox. Medications and other treatment can also make the process much more comfortable and bearable.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Personalized therapy sessions for drug addiction emphasize understanding your background and behavioral triggers for substance use. Your therapist will collaborate with you to create an effective coping strategy and address underlying issues that clear the way for lasting change.
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.
Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.
