<p><strong>ABOUT COLISEUM MEDICAL CENTERS - SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES</strong></p> <p>One of two hospitals operated by Coliseum Health System in Macon, Ga., Coliseum Medical Centers serves the community of Macon, Ga. with <strong>behavioral health services for psychiatric and substance use disorders (SUDs)</strong> like drug or alcohol dependency.</p> <p>Today, Coliseum Medical Center is <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/GA17.pdf" target="_blank">one of just 20 hospitals in the state of Georgia that offers <strong>inpatient detoxification services</strong></a> and one of just a few dozen that offers partial hospitalization (PHP) care.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Addiction treatment services at Coliseum Medical Centers follow the 12 Steps, offering clients an introduction to <strong>key concepts in recovery and an education on addition as a disease</strong>. While in medical detox, inpatients can attend classes, groups, and recovery-oriented activities that are <strong>designed to help them understand addiction and develop relapse-prevention techniques</strong>.</p> <p>The hospital also offers outpatient services at two distinct levels. The <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/GA17.pdf" target="_blank">partial hospitalization program (PHP), one of just 47 (16.1 percent of) in the state</a>, runs Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. until 2 p.m. and holds a <strong>weekly family day</strong> for clients and their loved ones. In the IOP, <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/GA17.pdf" target="_blank">one of just 102 (34.9 percent of) in the state</a>, participants meet Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from 7 a.m. until 11.45 a.m. Both programs require <strong>attendance at on-site and off-site 12-step meetings</strong>.</p> <p>All patients develop <strong>discharge plans</strong> prior to completing treatment to ensure a smooth transition once they leave. Amongst others, an important component of aftercare is attendance at a <strong>weekly group, held on-site and free of charge</strong>.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The treatment team include psychiatrists, social workers, counselors, nurses, and other support staff. The three individuals polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the hospital staff four or five out of five stars for its staff training and experience.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>The hospital provides few details on the living arrangements and related offerings of its inpatient unit. <strong>Lunch is provided daily, as are snacks</strong>. All three Rehabs.com reviewers awarded the hospital four out of five stars for its cleanliness.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>The single alum polled by Rehabs.com to date indicated that they’d recommend Coliseum Medical Centers’ substance abuse services to others. In particular, they highlighted the “food and ease of admission” but felt that they would’ve like to see more “options for loved ones to participate.”</p> <p>Secondary review sites yielded no coverage of the hospital's substance use treatment in particular, and <strong>mixed reports on the hospital as a whole</strong>. To date, Coliseum Medical Centers has average ratings of 4.0 out of five stars from 708 Facebook users (where the hospital can manage its own page) and 3.1 stars based on 110 Google reviews.<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></p> <p>Those satisfied with the services they received highlighted the center’s staff. “My family and I have received nothing but 5 star service from the doctors, nurses, and other staff in all my experiences,” C.H. wrote in a representative review on Google. Of the complaints, reviews cited <strong>poor living conditions, an unhelpful staff, and long wait times</strong>. “Terrible staff that was not sensitive to the needs of the patient," wrote A.B. in one such statement on Google.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>Feedback provided by a pair of loved ones was mixed. One found the behavioral health treatment services “effective” and gave the hospital four out of five stars for its holistic offerings, family participation, ability to treat co-occurring disorders, and connectivity/visitor policies. The other, the spouse of a former client, gave only two out of five stars for treatment effectiveness and just one star in indicating how cost-worthy they found the program. “My late husband attended two rehabs here,” they told Rehabs.com.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Programs are covered under “most insurance plans”, making Coliseum Medical Centers <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/GA17.pdf" target="_blank">one of just 154 (52.7 percent of) such facilities statewide</a>.</p> <p>Feedback amongst the three Rehabs.com survey respondents to date was mixed: they awarded the hospital two, three, and four out of five stars for the cost-worthiness of its treatment services.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/coliseummedicalcenters/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/coliseummedicalcenters/reviews/?ref=page<em>internal</a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1RUCY_enUS690US690&q=Coliseum+Medical+Centers&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgecSYzi3w8sc9Yam4SWtOXmOM4OIKzsgvd80rySypFPLiYoOy5Lj4pLj0c_UNTNKNC-KLNRikeLiQ-FIKSly8u6SnCIte-qBxTkuIs7Vho0rWv88dgtrfg5xmm8RP4lnEKuGcn5NZnFqaq-CbmpKZnJij4JyaV5JaVAwAGwxk0YcAAAA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj05ND-wbngAhVNKawKHeCyDREQ6RMwC3oECAYQBA#lrd=0x88f3fe6a24b18085:0x925f349b4252f72b,1,,," target="_blank"><a href="https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1RUCY" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1RUCY</a></em>enUS690US690&q=Coliseum+Medical+Centers&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgecSYzi3w8sc9Yam4SWtOXmOM4OIKzsgvd80rySypFPLiYoOy5Lj4pLj0c_UNTNKNC-KLNRikeLiQ-FIKSly8u6SnCIte-qBxTkuIs7Vho0rWv88dgtrfg5xmm8RP4lnEKuGcn5NZnFqaq-CbmpKZnJij4JyaV5JaVAwAGwxk0YcAAAA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj05ND-wbngAhVNKawKHeCyDREQ6RMwC3oECAYQBA#lrd=0x88f3fe6a24b18085:0x925f349b4252f72b,1,,,</a></small></p>
