When you’re investing in a family member’shealth and future, you need to make sure you’re making the right decision for your Meridian alcohol and substance abuse rehabilitation clinic. While the most prudent choice may still be to speak to our hotline experts so they can discuss your individual requirements, seeing how people have reviewed or rated some of the addiction rehabilitation clinics in or around you is another excellent way to start.
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.
The facility is wonderful. The staff and doctors are friendly and helpful. They listen and work with you to develop the right treatment plan for you.
Sunspire has excellent staff. I received the best health care I have ever received. They took my blood and gave me vitamins and prescriptions suited for me. During detox, I basically had a full-time nurse looking after me, taking my blood pressure every 4 hours and asking me questions to access how I was progressing. Nearly all of the BHTs and counselors are recovered addicts who can relate to what you are going through and truly were interested in your recovery. It was my first time I was at rehab. Many things surprised me. 1) how many people were in rehab for a 2nd or 3rd time (nearly all not repeats from Sunspire) - every single person in this group thought Suspire was the best facility that they had been too. 2) I was surprised by the depth of materials and learnings that Sunspire presented to patients. 3) every night we had bible study, an outside recovered speaker or the opportunity to attend an outside AA/NA/CA meeting or the choice or 2 or 3 of the above. The facility is 'right sized', about 27 people were there when I was there. You get to know staff on a first name basis as well as other patients and you are not just a number. The facility has a fishing pond, offers equine therapy, Yoga, and has a nice work-out facility, gymnasium, swimming pool and walking/running path. It is located in a very peaceful setting. The facility is set up for two people to a room, however most of my stay I did not have a room-mate. A bathroom is shared with another room (4 sharing a bathroom if both rooms are full. If you truly want to recover and arrive with the mindset to do so, Sunspire will train you on how to deal and recover from your addiction. I was not pleased with the amount of time allocated to phone use nor that internet access required approval - however their position is that the patient should have limited access to the outside world and should focus on recovery. I would recommend Sunspire to anyone with an addiction problem that has a desire for recovery. Don't waste your money if you don't want to be cured. No treatment center can cure someone that does not want cured.
Yesterday I celebrated my 1st year of sobriety! Thanks again for such tremendous support.
