TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT

We also emphasize the importance of peer-to-peer support and facilitate meetings whenever a resident wishes to call one. Motivational incentives are implemented to encourage sobriety.

  • It was beneficial that they were available on state insurances. However, it's like a revolving door for addicts. There is no counseling for mental issues. The return rate is very high. The information is that most addicts return to rehab on an average of 7 times.
    I worked at the facility for 7 years. They have their good and bad qualities. They are not consistent and have bad boundaries with clients. They hire all ex addicts and they all still act like addicts themselves. Not professional. They do care a ton about clients though. They try to do all of in their power to help.

  • I went to treatment to get help with my meth addiction. I had tried many times to stop before but never quit drinking, finally I figured out that I'm an alcoholic.
