About Kaiser Permanente AMRS

Kaiser Permanente AMRS is the Addiction Medicine and Recovery Services program serving the South Bay in Sunnyvale, California.

As part of Kaiser Permanente's integrated network, the program treats drug and alcohol addiction through counseling, medication assisted treatment and outpatient care for adults and transitional age youth, women and men.

Embedded within a larger medical and behavioral health system, this program aims to support recovery with coordinated and whole person care.

Integrated SUD Treatment

The program's core focus is substance use disorder treatment delivered within Kaiser Permanente's connected healthcare system.

Services described across available sources include inpatient care and outpatient addiction treatment, medication assisted treatment and detox related support, along with medical care and drug and alcohol education.

Treatment often combines group therapy, one on one counseling and evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, relapse prevention and 12 step facilitation.

Medications may be used to ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings, while co-occurring mental health needs can be addressed within the same network setting.

Family Involvement

I think it's noteworthy how family participation is a notable part of this program's approach to recovery.

Program descriptions reference family therapy and codependency programming, helping loved ones understand addiction and take part in the healing process.

This focus recognizes that lasting recovery is often strengthened by a supportive home environment.

Next Steps

The program is located on East Homestead Road in Sunnyvale, an address also associated with Cupertino in some directories, and operates as part of the broader Kaiser Permanente continuum of addiction care.

I want to point out that addiction treatment is a covered medical benefit for many Kaiser members, and the program also works with private insurance and private payment when possible.

Amenities

Rec Room & Activities

Recreational therapy uniquely combines therapeutic interventions with an activity, like horse-riding, hiking, wilderness therapy, basketball, tennis, or a full workout. Benefits of recreational therapy include providing a healthy way to work through the emotions of recovery, learning to build and maintain relationships, improving communication skills, and building self-esteem.

WiFi

Some rehab programs offer free Wi-Fi to guests who have full access to their smartphone devices or laptop computers during treatment. While access to these devices may be allowed, the time spent using them is often regulated or restricted so clients can focus on treatment.

Private Rooms

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.

Metropolitan Area

Addiction treatment in the metro area benefits clients by offering seamless connections from the city, around the state, and those seeking out-of-state treatment. Another benefit of attending a metro area drug rehab is that you’re close to major airports and ground transportation services.

Business Center

Business centers are a preferred amenity in many mental health and addiction recovery facilities and typically feature secure, high-speed internet, computer stations, printers, and related business technologies. Business centers are designed to enable professionals and students to continue to participate in work or school activities without leaving the treatment facility.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.

Adult Program

An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.

Men's Rehab

Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.

Women's Rehab

Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.

Payment Options

Medicaid Accepted

If you’re an in-state resident and eligible for Medicaid, you can use your coverage to assist with the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in California. Medicaid can help cover all levels of care, including detox in California, inpatient rehab in California, and more.

Medicare Accepted

Medicare in California (known as Medi-Cal) may provide coverage options to assist with the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in California. The amount of coverage will depend on many things, including whether you are seeking inpatient or outpatient treatment for substance abuse.

Private Insurance

As a California resident with private rehab insurance, you can use your coverage to help pay for alcohol and drug addiction treatment. You may be asked to pay some costs like a co-payment or co-insurance. Check with your insurer for more information.

Self-Pay Options

There are a number of self-pay options available for alcohol and drug rehab in California. If you can’t afford to write a check for the full cost of inpatient or outpatient treatment, personal and medical loans offer alternate ways of financing.
