This hospital has taken amazing care of my father since April 6th. ALL of the nurses, doctors and staff members have made me feel confident that they are taking good care of my dad when I have to leave to go home. My dad stays on 3 WEST in the gibbon building (the oncology floor) and we have had nothing but great experiences. Special shout-out to patient care tech, AJ, Jackie, RN, Tima- Patient care tech, and Ryan, RN. I can't even remember more of their names. But ALL of them deserve a SHOUT-OUT!! Also, Dr Wysota, and Jenn, NP. They go above and beyond for my dad. When my dad takes his walks there, everyone always makes sure to say Hi to him and tell him how great he looks. It is overall a great hospital, and they really make us feel special there. I have no complaints.... eh, just the food. Lol. But otherwise, I would recommend anyone who needs in patient chemo to go here. They saved my dad's life. I hope this gets back to whoever it should, so the nurses get the positive feedback they deserve. 10/10!

My mother had an emergency last night and I have never seen a more disorganized and incompetent hospital. I got out of the ambulance and was told to wait to the side because the ambulance I was in with my mom had to move up to make way for another with a more serious injury. The officer that told me to wait instructed me to wait in front of a random person's room. As the person with the more serious injury came in, nurses tried to tell me to go into the room behind me and I instructed them I don't know that person and I am not going into that room. They were screaming at a disoriented woman to get back into her room so they could have space. The woman was confused and they kept screaming at her instead of just guiding her back to her room. When I tried to advocate that she was disoriented and needed help they retorted that she wasn't disoriented, but I was looking right at her and she looked confused. The nurses and two different officers didn't know where to put me as I waited for my mother and I had to keep going from the back to the waiting room because they didn't communicate. A white male nurse yelled at me when I went back even though an officer told me I could go back with my mom. I wish I would have known how bad this hospital was because I would have just taken my mom back to the apartment and kept an eye on her instead of subjecting her and myself to this horrible hospital.

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude and heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional care my sister received under the expertise of Dr. Tyler Grenda. Dr. Grenda is nothing short of remarkable. From the very beginning, he approached my sister’s complex medical situation with both skill and compassion. His optimism gave our family the hope we so desperately needed, and he never wavered in his commitment to helping her return to the life she had before. It’s no exaggeration to say that he truly saved her life. What stood out most was how clearly and thoroughly Dr. Grenda explained everything to us. We were never left in the dark—he kept us informed at every step, patiently answering our questions and ensuring we understood the treatment plan. His communication, professionalism, and kindness brought comfort during one of the most frightening times in our lives. In addition to Dr. Grenda, we were fortunate to encounter several outstanding members of the nursing staff who made a lasting impression. Kelly, Maura, Grace, and Sadie were compassionate, attentive, and incredibly supportive. Their dedication and empathy did not go unnoticed, and we will never forget the way they cared for both my sister and our family. Please know how thankful we are for Dr. Grenda and this amazing team. Their combined efforts gave us back the sister, daughter, and friend we love so much. We are forever grateful.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

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 rehab in Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term recovery.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

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

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

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.

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.

I have had two C-sections there and my second one was the worst experience I ever had, The pain had me crying for my life I mean still to this day I have bad dreams and feel on and off pain in my back and my baby is now 7months i also want more kids but scared to experience that pain anywhere. It was terrible my surgeon told them I shout it feel exactly where she at so therefore they started going back and forth about me being in pain which scared me more it was just a very very traumatic experience.

Jefferson owns Wills Eye! Worst experience of our lives! Walked into the ER last Friday at 6:30 pm. The woman at the counter says to my wife " What are you looking at you need to go over there!", Horrible! The. they all started laughing including the security guard. I feel we were latterly harassed because we are white!

Everyone's experience at a hospital is unique. But these doctors, nurses, physicians, case managers, and other hardworking staff... They saved my father's life. And I am forever grateful for that. Not only are they heroes, but they are all very kind and gentle. It takes special people to work in healthcare, but not once over the last couple of weeks have I encountered any negativity from the staff. Checking in with my dad every day, he says he's being treated very well. Even the janitorial staff brought a smile to my dad's face! I am near tears typing this. Thank you all so much for your hard work and dedication, and for giving my dad the chance to come home.

I gave birth at Thomas Jefferson Hospital April 6th 2025, and multiple nurses/ residents/docs kept coming in my room asking me do I want to take an injection shot. Many times leading up to birthing I’ve said no. I felt very uncomfortable. 2 days later I was still at the hospital I was told I’m not doing discharge due to complications i wasnt having any complications that I was aware of. A day later a lady from DHS comes in my room telling me I cannot take my new born baby home with me! Because I have “mental issues “ . So that basically means the hospital called DHS on a first time mom. All because during my pregnancy I went to Thomas Jefferson hospital L&D triage and asked to speak to a provider because I couldn’t keep food down & because my emotions was all over the place. But i was pregnant what do you expect?? This is absolutely wrong. I’m unable to see my baby it’s been days doen. The person who gave my baby to was my abuser which is my mother. I have whip marks on me from being beaten. The video has gone viral on Instagram. Yes my mother assaulted me more than once for only going to visit my daughter. This is not right! I won’t stop fighting & the people who are supporting me Spreading awareness don’t tell these people how you feel when your pregnant

I went into the emergency choking and vomiting at 1:30pm They took blood and vitals but and sat there until 8pm and left because 7 and half hours I still didn't see the doctor. Despite my choking. I asked them what is the purpose of coming to the ER. If your not gonna treat it as an emergency

I’ve made an ungodly number of calls to my health insurances & this hospital trying to get claims sent to the correct place as I have 2 insurances & shouldn’t owe anything. People just send me in circles only one woman was helpful and resubmitted my claim to the insurance that clearly hadn’t paid anything. Why the other 3 people I spoke to didn’t do this is beyond me. Also, one of the numbers that shows for billing online doesn’t work. There’s no chat option. We have jobs too & our time is limited. No one had HOURS to waste getting passed around on hold for stuff that should’ve been taken care of 5 months ago. I’ve never had such a hard time with healthcare.
