Tire of hearing about health care professionals making fun of sick people in the ICU. It's Dehumanizing, unprofessional, upsetting, and disheartening for everyone having to see and hear about it. How are we supposed to get help if we're treated like we aren't people? What are you a health care professional for if you don't care about helping people? Also yall need to send workers home if they are sick.

I am very satisfied with my experience at the ECU Health Beaufort Hospital. I drove from Georgia to visit my mother who was there at the hospital. The rooms were clean, and the nurses and doctors were friendly and knowledgeable. All the nurses kept checking on my mother throughout the day and night making sure she was ok. Everyone was very professional and very motivated to do their jobs to standards. The physical therapy staff were also very professional. I have absolutely no complaints as far as how my mother was treated while being there at the ECU Health Beaufort Hospital. Special thanks to the true professionals: Kristy, Darien, Shannon, Soos, Latoria, Racheli, Caroline, Eric, Zola, Jeff, Ms. Tuten. Thank you all!

Accepted Insurance

ECU Health Beaufort Hospital 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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

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.

Came to the ER with a distended belly and a lot of pain. Took a while in the ER more than 5 hours!! Once I was back there was not long till I saw a Dr. She was very thorough and trying to figure out what was going on with me and I was actually admitted to the hospital. I had a great team doctors upstairs that helped me get on the road to recovery! I was really impressed with Dr Syed and he was very knowledgeable and had the best bedside manner which helped a lot !!

I drove a half an hour got there at 10:23 I understand waiting but I’m diabetic and they said I couldn’t eat or drink then proceeded to have me wait 5 hours I kept saying my blood sugar is 89 then 79 finally hit critical at 70. It makes no sense to have someone wait like that saying you need imaging. Then you should have sent me for imaging and sat me back in the waiting room I asked for a charge nurse no one came this hospital sucks just as much as Greenville so I guess I need to go out of town to be seen for emergencies. This is a sad sorry excuse for medical emergency staff. I left without being seen still in as much pain as I was when I got there.

I'm writing this as a retired RN. I know how the system should work and what to realistically expect. After a bicycle crash with moderate soft tissue injury I went to Urgent Care Down East. The provider Dr Kim Smith ( who is an ED doc at ECU Health Beaufort) determined that I should have a CT and should be seen in the ED. After registration it was a 15 minute wait for triage, where labs and the CT were ordered. Joe the triage nurse very proficiently inserted the IV and drew the labs. Radiology was a 2 hour wait ( not unexpected) and after the CT it was about 45 minutes ( long enough for radiology to read and transcribe the findings) before I was placed in a ED room. Nurse Amy was top notch with the wound care. Dr G ( please don't ask me to spell her name) was very professional and upbeat. She stitched up my thumb quite well. And was diligent in her

Thank you so much to the kind, attentive, and caring staff of this wonderful hospital. I came there sick this morning, and while I’m still battling my illness, I have absolutely no complaints as far as how I was treated in the Emergency Department. I came here out of refusal to ever go to ECU Greenville another day in my life, and I’m so glad this staff seemed to actually want to do their jobs and CARE about people. God bless you all❤️

Spent 5 days in ICU here and had the best and kindest nursing staff. I have been in the hospital 4 times over the last year and this was by far the best I have ever had. You could feel that they cared and wanted to make you better, physically and mentally.
