About

About Nash UNC Healthcare

UNC Health Nash is a UNC Health-affiliated hospital system serving Nash, Edgecombe, and surrounding counties in northeastern North Carolina. The system’s behavioral health services operate from Coastal Plain Hospital at 2301 Medpark Drive in Rocky Mount, where SAMHSA recognizes the program for medical detoxification and inpatient substance use and mental health treatment.

The behavioral health program is built around acute stabilization. Medical detoxification helps adults safely withdraw from alcohol and opioid dependence, while inpatient mental-health services address depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and substance-related psychiatric crises. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy anchors the clinical model, supplemented by group and individual therapy and active medication management by hospital-based psychiatrists. The program specifically supports Deaf and Hard of Hearing patients through ASL services – a SAMHSA-designated population for this site.

As part of UNC Health, Nash benefits from connections to academic medical specialists, advanced specialty care, and an integrated electronic record. Patients can move from emergency services or primary care into behavioral health and back into rehabilitation services or community-based follow-up without changing systems. The hospital was named among the nation’s top hospitals by The Leapfrog Group, an external recognition of safety and quality.

UNC Health Nash accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, state insurance, most major private insurance, and self-pay. The system maintains a billing and financial assistance team to help patients understand cost before admission. The main hospital number is 252-962-8000 and the behavioral health admissions line is 252-962-5000. My Nash Chart is the patient portal for scheduling, billing, and records access.

Medical Detox Services and Withdrawal Management

Nash UNC Healthcare's Coastal Plain Hospital provides medically supervised detox services for adults experiencing withdrawal from alcohol and various substances. Operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the facility ensures continuous medical monitoring during the critical detox phase. Their hospital-based setting allows for immediate medical intervention when complications arise during withdrawal management.

The medical detox program addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of withdrawal. Clinical staff monitor vital signs, manage withdrawal symptoms, and adjust treatment protocols based on individual patient needs. This comprehensive approach to detox helps stabilize patients before they transition to residential treatment or return to outpatient care in their communities.

Inpatient Treatment Programs

Following medical detox, patients can access residential treatment services that address the underlying causes of addiction. The program utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help patients develop coping strategies and modify harmful thought patterns related to substance use. Treatment planning addresses both addiction and any co-occurring mental health conditions.

The residential program treats adults with various conditions including alcohol misuse, substance misuse, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. This dual-diagnosis approach recognizes that many individuals seeking detox services also struggle with mental health challenges that require simultaneous treatment. The integrated model ensures comprehensive care within a single facility.

Insurance Coverage and Financial Options

Nash UNC Healthcare accepts a wide range of insurance carriers to make medical detox accessible to patients throughout Rocky Mount and Nash County. Accepted insurance includes Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna, and United Healthcare. The facility also works with government insurance programs including Medicaid, Medicare, and TRICARE.

For patients without insurance coverage or those facing financial hardship, the facility offers self-pay options and financial assistance programs. Their billing department works with individuals to develop payment plans and determine eligibility for reduced-cost services. This commitment to accessibility ensures that financial barriers don't prevent access to medically necessary detox services.

Discharge Planning and Continuing Care

The treatment team at Nash UNC Healthcare develops comprehensive discharge plans to support patients' transition from inpatient care back to their communities. This planning process begins early in treatment and includes coordination with outpatient providers, family members, and community resources. The goal is to create a support network that helps prevent relapse and promotes long-term recovery.

All patients receive naloxone education and overdose prevention training as part of their discharge preparation. This life-saving intervention equips patients and their families with tools to respond to potential overdose situations. The facility also maintains alumni programs that provide ongoing connection and support for individuals who have completed their detox and residential treatment programs.
