<p><strong>ABOUT ARKANSAS METHODIST MEDICAL CENTER</strong></p> <p>Founded in 1907 (under a different name), Arkansas Methodist Medical Center is a community hospital that provides a full range of medical services, plus a Social Services department that offers <strong>support for hospital patients receiving medical care.</strong> The support ranges from help with stress, to practical help arranging medical equipment such as wheelchairs, to <strong>supportive counseling</strong> for problems that may affect an individual's physical health — including substance use disorder.</p> <p><a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/dasis2/nssats/n2016_st_profiles.pdf" target="_blank">Like 77 percent of addiction treatment facilities in Arkansas,</a> the Methodist Medical Center is a private non-profit facility.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>As well as substance use disorder, the Social Services department can provide counseling to help clients struggling with homelessness, domestic violence, and other challenges.</p> <p>For clients struggling with substance use disorder, the center provides <strong>counseling, problem-solving assistance, and referrals.</strong> For those clients who receive referrals, these are mostly to: <strong>local 12-step meetings,</strong> a Biblical Approach to Addiction group, and <strong>a local rehab center</strong> that offers non-medical detox, residential treatment, and outpatient care, plus transitional living services for men. The single alum polled by Rehabs.com to date indicated that Arkansas Methodist Medical Center offered good holistic programming and average family participation and counseling options, and was not well-equipped to treat co-occurring disorders.</p> <p>In addition to substance abuse counseling and referrals, the Social Services department can provide <strong>case management services</strong> to support clients with processes such as Medicare and Medicaid claims, working compensation, discharge planning, and attaining medical equipment; can liaise with physicians, nurses, and other medical providers on clients' behalf; and can provide referrals to community agencies and financial resources.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Staff includes social workers and case managers. The single alum polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the facility two out of five stars for its staff's level of training and experience.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>"Nice people... Had a Great time," was the appraisal of the single alum polled by Rehabs.com to date. The anonymous reviewer gave a mixed report, awarding the facility five stars for its treatment effectiveness and four stars for its exercise/leisure and holistic offerings, but just three stars for its cleanliness and counseling options, and two stars for its treatment for co-occurring disorders.</p> <p>At the time of this writing, secondary sites yield no reviews of the Social Services department in particular, and <strong>mixed reviews of the hospital as a whole:</strong> the hospital has average ratings of 3.6 stars based on 359 reviews on Facebook (where the facility can manage its own page) and three stars based on 33 reviews on Google, as well as two one-star ratings and two five-star ratings spread between CiteHealth and Yelp.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-4"><sup>[4]</sup></a></small> <strong>The negative reviewers often cited a lack of care and respect from staff:</strong> "I do not feel that this hospital has treated our family with much respect when we've had issues happen," Stephanie wrote in one representative review on Facebook; "I have never in my life felt more belittled than I did this morning when I went in to be seen," Haley added, also on Facebook. </p> <p>By contrast, <strong>the positive reviewers repeatedly cited the excellent care they had received at this facility.</strong> "I was very pleased with the service that my husband and I received! As soon as we got to the ER, the staff, nurses, and doctors treated us with the utmost care," Allison wrote in a representative review on Google.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Arkansas Methodist Medical Center accepts private insurance, and is among the <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/dasis2/nssats/n2016_st_profiles.pdf" target="_blank">26 percent and 33 percent of facilities in Arkansas</a>, respectively, that accept Medicare and Medicaid. The single alum polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the facility three out of five stars for its affordability.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/arkansasmethodist/reviews/" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/arkansasmethodist/reviews/</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=arkansas+methodist+medical+center+paragould+ar&oq=Arkansas+Methodist+Medical+Center+paragould+ar&aqs=chrome.0.0j69i60j0l2.2133j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x87d67b0f4f83a533:0xc6903414a4bbf1d5,1,,," target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a> <a href="http://citehealth.com/hospitals/arkansas/cities/paragould/arkansas-methodist-medical-center#reviews" target="_blank">http://citehealth.com/hospitals/arkansas/cities/paragould/arkansas-methodist-medical-center#reviews</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-4"><sup>[4]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.yelp.com/biz/arkansas-methodist-medical-center-paragould-2" target="_blank">https://www.yelp.com/biz/arkansas-methodist-medical-center-paragould-2</a></small></p>
