About Talbot House – Bohemia
Talbot House is located in Bohemia, New York, a suburb of Long Island. Since 1957, Talbot House has provided social and behavioral health services for members of underserved populations. Their faith-based organization serves people of all backgrounds and faiths. Adults aged 18 and older can access their short-term residential stabilization program as their first step in recovery.
One great thing I noticed about them is they won’t deny services based on your ability to pay. They accept most major health plans, Medicare, Medicaid and Medicaid Managed Care. Even if you don’t have insurance, you can still get the help you need. You can access a sliding fee scale, tailored to your unique situation and what you can afford.
With residential care, you’ll live on campus among peers in recovery. They provide a safe, structured environment to manage withdrawal symptoms before transitioning to your next level of care. Once you reach stabilization, they refer you to another level of care and conduct a warm handoff.
You’ll benefit from 24/7 medical monitoring, medication assisted treatment (MAT), psychiatric evaluations and group and individual counseling. These approaches can not only help you address the physical symptoms of quitting drugs. You can also get to the core of your addiction and build coping skills.
What stands out most to me is their vocational and insurance counseling. They ensure you can gain vital skills to reach your employment and financial goals. You’ll benefit from professional help securing proper insurance and the tools to find a steady job. That way you’ll move on to your next level of care with a foundation for success and long term stability.
