About Della Martin Center – Pasadena
The Della Martin Center at Huntington Hospital offers alcohol and drug rehab services for teenagers and adults in Pasadena, California. Their services include dual diagnosis care, case management, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and aftercare programs. They accept private insurance, self pay, Medicare, and Medicaid. Some clients may qualify for free care if they meet income criteria and don’t qualify for Medicaid.
Clients here receive a personalized evaluation and customized treatment plan before beginning any type of program. Their partial hospitalization program includes five days of individual and group therapy per week, and can also include holistic therapy, psychiatric care, and training sessions on emotional wellness. Clients meet regularly with their care team to check their progress. I thought it was smart that providers ask all clients to bring extra clothes and toiletries to their sessions, even if they’re just attending day treatments.
Their intensive outpatient program isn’t quite as rigorous. This program only requires three days of group and individual counseling per week. Clients may also receive physical therapy, emotional counseling, and trauma therapy. All alumni receive ongoing care, support, and community connections to help them maintain their recovery.
While some former clients agree that the staff members are generally caring and patient, one client noted difficulties with a specific clinic care partner. Others echoed this sentiment, sharing that the environment felt unsafe and they did not receive quality care while in the program.
