<p><strong>ABOUT ROCHESTER MENTAL HEALTH CENTER RMHC</strong></p> <p>Rochester Mental Health Center (RMHC) provides treatment for substance use and mental health disorders to individuals in New York’s Monroe County. The facility is part of <a href="https://www.rehabs.com/listings/rochester-regional-health-chemical-dependency-1158531186/" target="_blank">Rochester Regional Health’s</a> Behavioral Health Network and Chemical Dependency Services. Also in the Rochester network are <a href="https://www.rehabs.com/listings/rochester-regional-health-unity-chemical-dependency-3458904647/" target="_blank">Unity Chemical Dependency</a>, offering short-term inpatient care for adults and adolescents, including ambulatory detox, and <a href="https://www.rehabs.com/listings/rochester-regional-health-hope-haven-591494991/" target="_blank">Hope Haven</a>, a residential treatment program in Batavia.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>According to a New York State government <a href="https://www.nyconnects.ny.gov/services/rochester-mental-health-center-adult-general-program-omh-pr-105306534110" target="_blank">directory of treatment facilities</a>, Rochester Mental Health Center <strong>offers outpatient programming to adults</strong> through a clinic affiliated with Rochester General Hospital. </p> <p>Clients can access treatment at one of Rochester Regional Health’s Chemical Dependency programs through <strong>a centralized service, which provides referrals and appointments for new patients</strong>. </p> <p>The network’s website emphasizes several core components of programming, including <strong>individualized treatment plans, a continuum of care</strong>, an array of specialized therapies, and family recovery support.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The regional network’s website indicates that facilities such as Rochester Mental Health Center (RMHC) employ a team of certified substance abuse counselors, addiction psychiatrists, master’s-level therapists and social workers, nurses, vocational counselors, nutritionists, and recreational therapists.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>The sole individual polled by Rehabs.com to date would not recommend Rochester Mental Health Center to others. Awarding their highest rating of four out of five stars for the facility’s cleanliness and upkeep, the former RMHC client indicated less satisfaction with all other aspects of treatment evaluated. Treatment effectiveness received three stars, but family participation and counseling options (two elements highlighted by the facility), garnered just one star apiece. The reviewer characterized RMHC as “pushy” and rated the staff’s level of training and experience two stars.</p> <p>On Google, one reviewer each offered a minimum and a maximum rating out of five stars, with no specific feedback for RMHC. A second five-star reviewer reported consistency in access to the same therapist over more than two years of extended treatment and wrote that the program was “Very supportive and resourceful.”<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Rochester Regional Health’s Behavioral Health Network accepts various public and commercial insurance, and offers both a sliding fee scale and financial assistance to eligible clients.</p> <p><strong>CONCLUSION</strong></p> <p>In April 2018, several Rochester-area local news outlets, including the <a href="https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2018/04/12/hanane-mouhib-case-prompts-state-investigation-rochester-general-hospital/510230002/" target="_blank">Democrat and Chronicle, reported</a> that New York State was investigating Rochester General Hospital related to the mental health treatment of a former patient who was indicted in the death of a child. No statement was provided by the hospital.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS725US725&q=Rochester+Mental+Health+Center&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgecSYyS3w8sc9YamESWtOXmOM4uIKzsgvd80rySypFPLhYoOyFLj4pbj10_UNS3LSKysLijQYpHi5kAWkFJS4eN3M9kuKTkrYd1FLiHN9w5Lwum3XOgVfprKG-kZnbecBAGfFK3FuAAAA&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj5n7CX66fcAhXxna0KHZRYAoYQ6RMIhwEwDA&biw=1393&bih=632#lrd=0x89d6b67e57a480af:0xb76a5b4d550565e9,1,,," target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small></p>
