<p><strong>ABOUT UNIVERSITY OF UTAH HEALTH CARE</strong></p> <p>As part of the expansive University of Utah Health Care System, the Addiction Recovery Services at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute provides comprehensive <strong>outpatient and intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment</strong> to adults struggling with addiction and <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring mental health disorders</a>. <strong>Medically-managed detox</strong> is also available, making it one of <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">25 (10.6 percent)</a> treatment centers in the state with this offering.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Treatment typically begins with detoxification for those who need it. The inpatient detoxification care is medically monitored by a psychiatrist and team of nurses who provide medication and other support throughout the withdrawal process.</p> <p>After inpatient detox is completed, clients can participate in the <strong>eight-week intensive outpatient program (IOP)</strong>, Recovery WORKS, which meets four nights a week and includes group therapy, <a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/the-pain-of-addiction-in-the-family-how-counseling-can-help" target="_blank">family therapy,</a> and 12-step meetings.</p> <p>Addiction Recovery Services' programming is evidence-based and combines <strong>cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)</strong> and mindfulness techniques with <strong>12-step philosophies and practices</strong>. Clients participate in group therapies and other activities throughout the day to provide education on the disease of addiction. </p> <p><strong>Experiential activities</strong> such as ropes course challenges, art and music therapy, and equine therapy are also included in the treatment program. Family is incorporated into the treatment program through <strong>weekly family group therapy</strong>. Program participants are also expected to attend 12-Step meetings within their own community or find another community support group in addition to their treatment at the facility. </p> <p>The hospital's <strong>Recovery Clinic</strong> provides specialized treatment for clients struggling with substance abuse and a dual diagnosis of mental illness. This program offers consultation and evaluation, group and individual therapy, medication management, including <strong>Suboxone therapy</strong>, and outpatient detoxification, if needed. </p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Addiction Recovery Services at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute's treatment team includes licensed substance abuse counselors, licensed clinical social workers, psychologists, and expressive therapists, as well as nurses and board-certified psychiatrists with specialized training in addiction. </p> <p>In Utah, <a href="https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/report_3059/ShortReport-3059.pdf" target="_blank">98.8 percent</a> of all substance abuse treatment facilities have continuing education requirements for staff. The four individuals polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing on the matter gave the center's staff above-average ratings.</p> <blockquote> <p>Staff Experience and Training: 3.8/5</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>At the time of this writing, the sole alum polled by Rehabs.com gave generally positive feedback. Perfect, five-star ratings were given to leisure options, the center's visitor policy, and the facility's cleanliness. A high four-star rating was awarded for the level of staff support. "The staff is very kind &amp; empathetic; they encourage 100% drug/alcohol free when you leave but are realistic enough to tell you not to beat yourself up or give up if you mess up once," the alum wrote. However, only one out of five stars was provided for the center's holistic offerings. </p> <p>On Google, the facility has an average rating of 2.9 stars from 62 users to date, though none of these comment on the addiction recovery services in particular.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>At the time of this writing, there have been six family members and friends polled by Rehabs.com. These loved ones left mostly positive reviews, and nearly all of them commented upon the facility's cleanliness, caring staff, and counseling options."Well trained staff modern facilities," a loved one remarked, and another echoed, "If you or your loved one requires structure then I'd recommend this facility."</p> <blockquote> <p>Facility Cleanliness and Upkeep: 5/5 stars<br /> Counseling Options: 4/5</p> </blockquote> <p>Criticisms of this facility were rare, but expense was listed as a facility weakness, amongst concerns with the program lacking variety. "They didn't know much about HIV/AIDS and how to handle such cases," a loved one wrote, with another reviewer commenting, "not a lot of alternative approaches."However, the loved ones polled on the matters indicated that they would recommend the program to others and generally approved of the amount of family participation.</p> <blockquote> <p>Likelihood to Recommend the Facility: 3.8/5<br /> Family Participation: 3.5/5</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>There is currently no information provided on the facility’s website regarding its costs. According to <a href="https://citehealth.com/hospitals/utah/cities/salt-lake-city/university-health-care-university-of-utah-hospital" target="_blank">CiteHealth,</a> the facility accepts insurances including Medicaid (accepted at <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/UT16.pdf" target="_blank">47.7 percent of</a> treatment centers in the state) and Medicare (accepted at <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/UT16.pdf" target="_blank">34 percent of</a> Utah treatment facilities). The four Rehabs.com survey respondents polled on the matter offered mixed opinions concerning the facility's cost.</p> <blockquote> <p>Affordability: 2.8/5</p> </blockquote> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/U+of+U+Health+University+Neuropsychiatric+Institute/@40.7586742,-111.8253309,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m7!3m6!1s0x0:0x1be99c7196ac099c!8m2!3d40.7586742!4d-111.8231422!9m1!1b1" target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small></p>
