If you are putting money into a family member’s health, future and happiness, you’ll need to make sure you’re choosing the right option for your Whately alcohol and substance abuse treatment facility. While the most prudent option may still be to speak to our helpline advisors so they can discuss your personal requirements, seeing how others have reviewed or rated some of the addiction rehabilitation clinics in or around your area is another great place to get started.
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.
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).
This is a great home with people who care about the guys' best interests. The home is kept neat and clean. It is not overcrowded. Most rooms are singles. They even provide food! Can't be beat!
The Haven saved my life. I've been clean since January 27th. I haven't had any real sobriety in over 5 years. I walked in there in rough shape and left a new man. I'm very grateful for the entire staff. Everyone was great. I was well taken care of.
