When you are putting money into a family member’s health and well-being, you’ll want to make sure you’re making the best choice for your Dorchester alcohol and drug abuse treatment program. While the best choice may still be to talk to our helpline advisors so they can discuss your individual needs, looking at how others have reviewed or rated some of the addiction treatment facilities in or around your area is another good way to begin.
Recovery.org is owned and operated by American Addiction Centers (AAC). AAC is a leading rehabilitation provider, offering all levels of care from detox to sober living, including 9 inpatient facilities nationwide.
Our loved one was in this facility for 3 weeks and received stellar treatment, from rehabilitation, to mental health intervention, to offering a great, clean facility, to serving healthy, hot, nutritious meals. We strongly recommend this facility, where patients and families feel welcome, are treated with respect, dignity and compassion. An exercise room was available, medication and yoga classes were offered, along with other mind craft/art related workshops.
As a first timer to rehab, I was sooo impressed with Naukeag. Some of the highlights were cell phone and computer use, mostly single bed rooms, good food, freedom to leave the property for walks, hikes or with family, great staff that cared and motivated patients, and lots of free time. I was only disappointed in not receiving a refill on a new prescription I was prescribed for high blood pressure. They tripled my dose half way through the treatment and I only had a few days left of medication by the time I left. I received refills for all the other psychiatric medications but not this "medical" one. I saw improvements on my blood pressure on my home device and was just confounded they wouldn't refill this prescription. I'm waiting until I see my NP in a couple weeks to have it refilled. The facility was good because of the freedoms. It was clean, well run, and inspiring. The only weakness I saw was the nursing staff and this was only a small weakness. Some of the nursing staff were a little moody at times. This may have been due to importance of the job with restricted medications (I wasn't on any).
Elevate Recovery Center truly changed my life. The intensive outpatient program provided me with the support I needed to overcome my addiction. The counselors are compassionate, understanding, and genuinely care about your recovery journey.
