About River Oaks Hospital The New Orleans Institute

The New Orleans Institute at River Oaks Hospital specializes in treating individuals with trauma-based mental disorders, compulsive behavior disorders, eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD). Their comprehensive inpatient programs offer a supportive environment where patients receive individualized care from a multidisciplinary team with over 25 years of experience. Treatment modalities include individual and group therapies, trauma resolution, and relapse prevention strategies, all aimed at stabilizing symptoms and promoting long-term recovery.
The institute serves adults, including active-duty military members and their families, who have not found success with outpatient or standard inpatient programs. Recognizing the unique challenges faced by these populations, the institute provides specialized care tailored to their specific needs. The treatment team comprises psychiatrists, medical doctors, psychologists, social workers, dietitians, psychiatric nurses, counselors, and expressive therapists, all working collaboratively to address complex trauma-related symptoms such as depression, anxiety, dissociation, and self-injury.

Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
