Saint Johns Riverside Hospital Behavioral Health

Saint Johns Riverside Hospital Behavioral Health, located in Yonkers, New York, is a hospital-based setting that provides 24/7 addiction services to adults. Their services are voluntary and they also assist court-mandated patients. With comfortable patient lounges and recreation areas, this facility offers a lot of avenues toward bettering your health.

What I like most about them is their inclusion of medication assisted treatment in their interventions. To pay for your care, Saint Johns Riverside Hospital Behavioral Health accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicaid and Medicare. If you need extra help, they provide sliding fee scales and financial assistance options.

MAT and Inpatient Addiction Services

Saint Johns Riverside Hospital Behavioral Health provides inpatient rehab through a 69-bed program with 24/7 detox, psychiatric evaluations and medication assisted treatment (MAT). Their outpatient programs include intensive outpatient programs and traditional therapy.

I like that these are also provided via telehealth which is great if transportation is an issue. If you experience opioid or alcohol use disorder, their MAT program offers supervised medication administration and monitoring.

Past patients often cite their compassionate staff and supportive environment. Positive reviews referencing thorough, structured care and helpful group sessions. There’s also frequent mention of success in achieving sobriety and improved mental well-being after treatment.

The facility is near Tibbetts Brook Park, a large city park with walking paths, greenery and outdoor recreational options. They are also in close proximity to downtown Yonkers, Hudson River Museum and Untermeyer Gardens Conservancy, offering opportunities for therapeutic outings or family visits. You will be near public transportation, local bus routes and major highways for convenient access to the community.
