About Community Behavioral Health – Martin Luther King Boulevard – Hamilton
Community Behavioral Health – Martin Luther King Boulevard is a dual diagnosis addiction treatment center in Hamilton, Ohio. This clinic acts as both a broad mental health treatment facility and a rehab for drug and alcohol addiction. Their services include outpatient detox, a partial hospitalization program (PHP), intensive outpatient treatment, relapse prevention, medication assisted treatment (MAT) as well as aftercare. They accept most private insurances, Medicaid, and medicare payments, along with TRICARE and out of pocket payments. They are accredited by The Joint Commission.
Their detox program lasts about a week, serving as the beginning of a treatment path. From there, patients are assessed by case managers and assigned to a program. Patients with less severe addiction are put into general outpatient treatment with therapy and dual diagnosis options, while more severe cases may need intensive outpatient care which is a more regimented, targeted form of outpatient treatment. The patients with the highest needs are placed in partial hospitalization/day treatment. They are given hours of medical, psychiatric and therapeutic care every day.
Uniquely, this center offers Day Reporting programs, which are part of rehabilitating clients involved in legal proceedings, facing jail time or on probation. Patients can enter standard outpatient treatment, but they also have access to educational courses on topics like substance abuse, anger management and positive life skills. If a patient is in court mandated treatment at this center, they will have three sessions a week that will slowly decrease until their treatment plan is finished.
Additionally, this center has a number of resources and plans to educate and help people indirectly affected by mental health and substance abuse. In the Substance Abuse Family Education (SAFE) program, they offer family support groups where those impacted by substance abuse can share their stories and struggles with peers. They can also learn various coping skills and make connections to harbor strength.
