Hudson Health Services – Salisbury

This place was not meant for people with severe mental illness. Patient was over medicated and fell the first night going to the bathroom. They sent him to the ER for a fracture with no support person. Then refused to… take him back. Rules are rules you know! 💁‍♀️

Deceptive.

Just got put out for bullying 😪 just because I wouldn't call a female a man. I got food spit on me by three different people and they are still there I would give them a 0 but can't I've been bullied and harassed and… threatened told the tecs and said to keep my mouth and dont worry about it worry about yourself I was humiliated by a counselor in group laughed at humiliated by tecs and I thought this was a safe place but it's not at all I did not feel safe all they do is pick and chose who they protect came in 12/05\25 was getting my certificate 1/05/25 but put me out 12/30/25 I'm sooooo going through the moment Dr. B is an awesome mental health doctor 👏 ❤️ Kamlesh is awesome 👌 👏

I was at hudson but one thing I can say is Ranada p is the best counselor in the world!!!

I spent two weeks at Hudson for alcoholism before deciding to leave against medical advice to find a better managed facility more structured to address my mental health (the cause of my drinking). For the most part, the… staff was amazing, from the kitchen to the counselors and the amazing Dr. B. Unfortunately, they do not monitor what goes on in the house very well, especially after working hours (2nd shift techs are early 20’s college students and not very well respected by clients sadly) so if you receive harassment, unless they see it, they must remain “objective”. My first week was great, but by my second week a few of the other female clients were doing everything they could to get me to leave or kicked out.. It became counterproductive to my recovery. I was screamed at (no exaggeration lol) called names and threatened on more than one occasion by a client for reasons I still don’t know. The daytime, female tech Candy (who is BEYOND wonderful!!!) is the only person with any control over these women. When she’s not there, they run wild. I took all of the proper steps and precautions to avoid the trouble but was repeatedly told to ignore it and not respond. My patience eventually wore out and I chose to leave to avoid a potential physical altercation As I realized the “powers that be” were not going to do so. I requested a transfer and was told they did not do that there. After making my own arrangements to leave suddenly they COULD transfer me to another facility, but I would have to wait two days. At that point, my mind was already made up and I left that morning. When I spoke with my counselor the evening prior he attempted to ease my mind by saying “everyone has been dealt with” but that clearly did not discourage them. He then attempted to gaslight me by claiming other staff had complained about me. I knew exactly who he was speaking of which is Daphne. Daphne‘s a counselor that I watched multiple times bait clients into arguments and even bully one in particular in my opinion. I worked with her previously at Cove Recovery and while I am not one to look for racism I felt like she was biased against me due to my color being different than hers. While I don’t think she’s a bad person I do not think she is a good counselor, especially when people are in such sensitive states coming off of substances. I knew immediately he was referring to an instance earlier that day in which Daphne yelled at the class to sit down and when everyone started getting up, I asked if we were allowed to get up. She basically yelled and said that I was being disrespectful and smart mouth when in reality, I was just trying to make sure we were doing what we were supposed to do. The moral of the story is to make sure you thoroughly research the facility you choose to go to because not all are the best for your recovery, some seem like they just want to keep the beds full Edit to add: also, their website says 30 day to 60 day program but if your insurance will pay for 60 days, they will keep you there for 60 days. Once you get there, it is very hard to get out. Second edit to add: they do not have a detox protocol or unit, people experiencing withdrawal symptoms are thrown right into general population. On my last night there I had two new clients put in my room who proceeded to throw up in the trash cans, down the side of a dresser, toilets, and sinks all night without cleaning up after themselves or having a nurse come in to check on them. That was my final straw Last edit I swear lol: by the end of my first week, I had developed a heat rash. I repeatedly asked to see the doctor right up until the day I left and aside from a nurse sending him a few pictures, I never did. It progressively got worse and was covering my chest, arms, legs and stomach by the time I left. Thankfully, I was able to get treatment after leaving and it is now resolving.

The staff for the most part were very helpful.I explained that I wanted to go to a sober living house where I could go to work.i was told that because of the waiting list I couldn't stay long enough to get into a place… in Salisbury.they said the Acquila house would accept me.I specifically asked how long before I could go to work.they said 30 days.I get to Acquila and it's a 90 day program....they knew what they were doing...smfh

Hudson gave me the tools I need to use in my everyday life to keep staying clean. Great facility.

horrible center. they are a directionless church that charges your insurance company to keep you high on their drugs. I had to leave early. with two exceptions the staff was lazy and self serving.

Staff was amazing in all aspects.

I am new to recovery and only sought out Hudson following a heart attack last September. While in the hospital, I found out I had chronic heart failure, so my only option was slow death or getting sober. I knew I had no… chance of quitting drinking on my own, so I begrudgingly checked myself into Hudson Behavioral Health. This was my first experience with rehab, so I came to campus scared and angry. I am antisocial by nature, so the first week or so I kept to myself and rarely participated in groups. I have always been skeptical about the true intentions of institutions like these, but eventually I realized the staff here actually made a genuine effort to help us as individuals. Almost all of the staff has had their own experience with addiction, so I felt more comfortable getting personal with my counselors than I have talking to regular people. I do believe I got lucky when I was assigned Missy as my counselor, but I would have been content with any of them. I honestly enjoyed my experience, which I know is rare to say about a rehab, but the rooms were comfortable, we were given plenty of free time, and I made friends with patients and staff that I continue to talk to today. I ended up staying 48 days because I applied to move into one of their transitional 3.1 houses. I still wasn’t confident I could stay sober if I went back to living alone, so I have been in the Chestnut house since November. It was the best decision I’ve ever made. The staff at rehab was good, but the staff running the 3.1 houses are probably the kindest people in this line of work. They are professional, but still know how to joke around. They’re serious when they need to be, but always manage to treat us like friends rather than patients. Becca and Josh will go the extra mile to help you and they give their trust freely, so long as you show everyone respect. I’ve been sober for 6 months now, and I feel better than I have in a very long time. I know I still have a lot of work to do, but I can honestly say this program saved my life.

My son was supposed to go there however, they said they don't deal with violent behavior. My son never had a fight let alone violent behavior. They said the police was called but no police report? They refuse to accept… him and Sheila Pulling the supervisor only returned my call after l told her l was calling the news. These places and staff are NOT qualified and their reports affect people lives which are lies.

If I could give this place no stars, I would. There is no help from the staff. When I first came in, they dropped me off and said "good luck". Gave me no directions or told me anything about the rules. I ventured off… walking around the first day and was told I would be written up (which would have added another 15 days to my being there). There were flies and gnats on all the nasty food. I wasn't eating that! I was told to pick up other people's cig butts in order for me to smoke. Which is nasty. The room was too small (8×8) for the amount of people sleeping in them. Couldn't drink coffee outside the lunch room, but yet I could buy sodas at the vending machine and have them outside. Bathrooms are nasty. Staff was not helpful and made one person wait four days before they gave them medicine to help with detox symptoms! They gave me A Tb test and then didn't give me any paperwork on what to do if it got Ifected (which it did). I had a horrible experience there and would NEVER tell ANYONE to go there for treatment. They wouldn't give me me blood pressure meds. All my calls had to be on speaker phone with my counselor listening, so i couldnt tell my family what was really going on there. I could go on and on. Zero stars. They charge my insurance 1800.00 a day and that's absolutely atrocious!! Someone somewhere is profiting off this place big time and Not putting it back into this facility. Go anywhere else if you can!!

This facility needs to review its policies and procedures for discharging residents after hours. I was contacted on a Saturday at 10pm to pick up my family member or send a bus ticket or money to get him home because of… a verbal altercation with another resident. They were going to put him out on the street had I not advocated for him. He is from the Baltimore and was in treatment in Salisbury MD. They haven't followed up with him to assist with outpatient treatment or to even see if he is ok and made it home. Nor have they addressed his stolen items. As a healthcare professional, this organization REALLY needs to revamp its policies, procedures, and protocol to keep everyone safe and healthy. If I could leave no stars I would!

Hudson Behavioral Health cares not just about your recovery but about your family! While your loved one is in treatment, they listen to the real life issues that still occur with your family. The Director and Melissa… Barons made it possible to allow my member to be transported to Virginia to visit another family with stage 4 Cancer. The Director and her husband cared enough to personally transport him for a few hours visit with our I’ll family member, in order for his recovery to continue at Hudson Behavioral Health uninterrupted! Absolutely Amazing!

Hudson helped me regain my tools to stay sober . My counselor Jessica absolutely the best ! Marvin was great ! All the techs and peer support are so sweet . 😊

Well i just called admissions and it seem I could not get any information for myself until my provider wrote a referral. Just because a person has gotten to a point where they need help doesn't mean they don't have a… right to choose which establishment they want their provider to write a referral. I wanted to get information to know what type of place I was looking into. But that didn't seem possible. When I would ask simple basic questions I would just get told that my provider needs to write a referral.

I went to Hudson and the staff there are great , and still till this day the peer support still reaches out to me . Hudson saved my life and helped me want to live again. It's a great place to start your life in… recovery and the people really do care, Mallory was the best counselor, she goes above and beyond for her clients, I am truly grateful to have had the chance to make Hudson my stepping stone to a new way of life

Hudson saved my life!!! I was feeling hopeless and ashamed at myself for relapsing, but the staff, especially my peer counselor Alaina, and my counselor Jessica R., gave me tools and confidence to face this world… without a mind and mood altering substance. I love my life today, I'll always be indebted to Hudson.

I went to Hudson twice for alcoholism. The staff was very helpful with knowledge / coping skills about addiction, peer support was excellent in helping with their experience and the staff cares and it shows. They make… recovery fun with activities ~ music, yoga and outdoor events to name a few. My stay at Hudson was the first step toward recovery and healing. I am happily sober, I’ve gotten everything I lost back with time, I have a job I enjoy and I am happy!
