Early recovery can be an extremely difficult time. Many people struggling with addiction discover that overcoming their drug and/or alcohol addiction on their own can be difficult, or even impossible. If you are struggling with drug and/or alcohol addiction and are seeking help to overcome it, it is important to choose a rehab center that fits your needs.
What to Look for in a Rehab Center?
No matter your addiction, there are a few general things that you’ll want to take into consideration before making your choice. These include:
· Available Services. Different patients require different levels of care and types of services to overcome their addiction and create long-term sobriety. These include inpatient, outpatient, detoxification, teletherapy, aftercare, and more. Make sure you consider what services are available at the facility you are thinking about enrolling in, and whether they have the services to best meet your needs.
· Health Insurance Coverage. Certain rehab facilities take specific insurance plans and providers. Check with your insurance company to determine your level of coverage and reach out to the facility to see if they accept insurance from your provider.
· Level of Experience. You want the best care available. Ensure you choose a rehab facility with an experienced staff who has professional qualifications. You deserve the highest level of care available!
· Individualized Care. While it’s great to work with others in a group setting, it’s also important to get individualized care. The rehabilitation center you choose should keep the needs of each individual patient in mind when treating them. There is no “one size fits all” treatment for addiction – and customized treatment can be life-changing.
· Lengthy Recovery. Recovery shouldn’t be a “crash course.” You’ll need time to develop the skills you need for ongoing success. While different facilities offer different lengths for their programs, you don’t want to go with a facility that wants to get you in and out as quickly as possible. Take the time you need to heal – this is a process that shouldn’t be rushed.
· Aftercare. An aftercare program shows that a facility cares about the ongoing success of its patients. Aftercare often includes Alumni services and support groups. We recommend you ask about the aftercare services of any facility you are considering.
Take these factors into consideration when making the decision of which facility you want to attend.
