<p><strong>ABOUT COASTAL HARBOR HEALTH SYSTEM</strong></p> <p>Coastal Harbor Health System operates two facilities in Savannah, Ga,. that serve the mental health and chemical dependency needs of adults, children, and adolescents. The Coastal Harbor Behavioral Health facility is a psychiatric hospital offering both <strong>inpatient and outpatient treatment for adults with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders</strong>, as well as on-site medically-monitored detoxification services. Nearby Coastal Harbor Treatment Center provides inpatient substance abuse treatment for youth.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>All clients receive a <strong>comprehensive assessment</strong> prior to admission to determine the appropriate level of care. The length of stay for inpatient clients varies depending upon need; outpatient options include a partial hospitalization program (PHP) and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). There is also a <strong>specialized military program</strong> for veterans and active duty service members, as well as a <strong>dedicated dual diagnosis track</strong>.</p> <p>All treatment programs utilize <strong>evidence-based practices</strong> such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and <a href="http://www.rehabs.com/pro-talk-articles/seeking-safety-an-evidence-based-model-to-address-trauma-and-addiction-together/" target="_blank">Seeking Safety</a> <strong>groups</strong>. Clients participate in group therapy, individual counseling, 12-step meetings, and addiction education groups, along with experiential activities such as <strong>yoga</strong> and <strong>animal assisted therapy</strong>. Nutrition and wellness is also a key part of treatment, as is comprehensive discharge planning.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>In addition to psychiatrists specialized in addiction medicine, Coastal Harbor’s treatment team includes psychiatric nurses, licensed therapists, and recreational therapists.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Information regarding Coastal Harbor Behavioral Health’s living arrangements and related offerings is currently limited, however, it appears the <strong>50-bed facility</strong> is a fairly typical psychiatric hospital. Six reviewers polled by Rehabs.com rated the facility’s accommodations 3.7 out of five stars and overall felt it was clean and maintained.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>The single Rehabs.com review from an alum was mixed. The anonymous former client gave the facility <strong>four out of five stars</strong> for treatment effectiveness and staff experience, reporting to Rehabs.com that the staff was nice and the food was good. However, the alum rated holistic and exercise offerings only two out of five stars and suggested that treatment was too expensive.</p> <p><strong>Reviewers on Google were unenthusiastic</strong>, rating the facility an overall score of just <strong>1.8 out of five stars</strong> based on five user reviews.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> Several alumni commented on rude staff and a lack of effective treatment. “This was literally the least helpful step in my emotional and mental recovery,” alum Kelsey wrote.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>Loved ones generally gave Coastal Harbor more positive feedback. Three out of the five friends and family surveyed by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing rated the facility <strong>four or five stars for treatment effectiveness and the staff's level of training and experience.</strong> One anonymous loved one described the staff as "compassionate," while another agreed, writing, “Very professional and respect all requests. They made me very comfortable and kept in constant communication with me.”</p> <p>However, another reviewer felt their loved one did not benefit from treatment at the facility: “The staff does not care about the patient. My sister was there and it did not help her one bit.” In addition, <strong>several loved ones indicated holistic treatment options may be lacking.</strong> Two loved ones who wrote reviews on Google were also skeptical of the program, giving one-star ratings and complaining of rude staff who refused to communicate with them.</p> <p><strong>WHAT STAFF SAY</strong></p> <p>Though no staff members were polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing, 32 employees reported to Indeed.com mostly positive reviews, giving the facility an average of <strong>3.2 out of five stars.</strong><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small></p> <p>"This environment was stressful because we worked with troubled youth. However, staff got along well and cared about clients and their families," wrote one senior counselor. "Staff was given the opportunity to make overtime hours as well as allowed to take time off, to avoid a burnout."</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>According to the Coastal Harbor’s website, the hospital accepts Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and a variety of private insurance plans, including BlueCross BlueShield and United Healthcare.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/ubW9Db" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/ubW9Db</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Coastal-Harbor-Treatment-Center/reviews" target="_blank">https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Coastal-Harbor-Treatment-Center/reviews</a></small></p>
