ABOUT OUR HOME, INC. – PRTG REDISCOVERY
Our Home, Inc. operates two residential facilities for teens in South Dakota. This review focuses on the PRTG Rediscovery program located in the Parkston, S.D. center. The program provides residential treatment to male and female adolescents between ages 12 and 18 who are struggling with addiction.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
All clients begin with assessments and orientation. Those with co-occurring disorders are accepted but will be more heavily screened. Clients undergo mental and physical assessments and receive custom treatment planning, progress review, case management, and discharge planning.
Treatment at this facility lasts about 45 to 60 days, and clients progress through phases. Advancement through the three levels comes with an understanding of the 12-Steps and approval from peers and counselors.
One of the main goals of recovery is developing peer and social skills. As treatment is based on the 12-Steps, clients attend regular alcoholics anonymous (AA) and narcotics anonymous (NA) group meetings. Individual counseling and family services are also available in addition to education, spirituality, and peer groups.
STAFF CREDENTIALS
According to the center’s website, the treatment team includes counselors, therapists, chemical dependency counselors, and nurses.
ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES
Our Home’s website indicates the Parkston Facility is 17,000-square-feet and has an academic school and gymnasium.
WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY
The one loved one who was surveyed by Best-rehabs.com at the time of this writing provided a negative review. They gave the center just one out of five stars when asked if they would recommend Our Home, Inc.
They rated the center the highest for cleanliness and affordability with four stars, and wrote the center’s strength was group therapy. However, they also wrote: “The place is a nightmare! they took our couches, our shoes, our bedding. If part of your therapy group violated a rule, the whole group got punished. Its just not a safe place. Its no wonder they have a 2% sucess rate.”
Reviews elsewhere online to date are limited, but two Google reviewers awarded five out of five stars, though neither left commentary.[1]
FINANCING
There is currently no information provided on the facility’s website regarding its costs.
