Ventura CaliforniaVista Del Mar Review

Based in Corona, California, Signature Healthcare Services is one of the largest networks of private psychiatric hospitals in the country. It delivers mental health and substance abuse treatment services for children, adolescents and adults in ten hospitals. These are located in California, Arizona, Nevada, Illinois and in multiple locations throughout Texas. Each hospital delivers a continuum of care, accepting clients on a voluntary basis.

Located in Ventura, California, Vista Del Mar is an acute psychiatric facility that provides mental, behavioral and developmental health treatment. Medical detox and outpatient treatment for those with substance abuse issues are offered, with a specialized inpatient and outpatient program for dually diagnosed clients. Special programs are also available for active-duty, dependents and veterans.

Accommodations and Food

Set on 16 acres of land with ocean views, Vista Del Mar accommodates up to 26 men and women in its dual diagnosis unit. A wing of the larger psychiatric facility, clients are housed two or three to a room. Private rooms may be available if the facility is not full, but cannot be guaranteed.

Food is prepared on-site by a dedicated kitchen staff, and meals are both wholesome and nutritious.

Treatment and Staff

The dual diagnosis unit treats clients with co-occurring disorders. Those who present with psychiatric symptoms as a result of substance abuse may go through detox in the psychiatric unit. A multi-disciplinary staff supervises and implements individualized treatment plans.

Treatment consists of individual and group therapy, which makes up the majority of the client’s day. Family therapy, medication management and recreational therapy complete the list of regular activities. The goal is to assist clients with developing the necessary skills to identify the causes that led to hospitalization and to prevent further inpatient treatment. Clients are also introduced to 12-step programs and are required to attend meetings and participate in step work.

The adult Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is for clients that need intensive treatment services but hope to avoid hospitalization. Treatment consists of assessment, medication management, group therapy, individual therapy and 12-step programming. Groups focus on life skills development, substance abuse education and strategies to help the client return to a high level of functioning.

Clients needing less intensive care may participate in the outpatient program, or may step down after leaving the inpatient program or PHP. This program meets Monday to Friday, 9 am to 3 pm. Treatment consists of group and individual therapy, much like the PHP only less frequently. Groups focus on relapse prevention and coping skills. Attendance at 12-step meetings is continually encouraged.

The treatment team includes psychiatrists, internists, registered nurses, case managers and ancillary nursing staff. Additional recreation and activity therapists facilitate certain groups, and a dietician consults with clients regarding their nutritional wellbeing. Clients are supervised 24/7, and benefit from highly structured treatment plans.

Extras

Transport to and from sessions is provided for those in the PHP who reside within Ventura County.

The military support program offers treatment for active duty, dependents and veterans. All levels of care are provided and specific treatment for PTSD and sexual trauma are offered.

In Summary

Vista Del Mar Behavioral Health offers a comprehensive range of treatment for dually diagnosed clients. The beautiful setting and relatively small number of clients means care happens in a peaceful environment. Clients have a number of staff specially focused on their needs, and the variety of therapeutic modalities, including 12-step programs provide a strong foundation for recovery. Clients have the added bonus of access to additional aftercare resources and are able to check in with their case managers long after completion of their programs.
