This episode dives into finding the right residential treatment center for addiction recovery. It's crucial to choose a facility that aligns with your needs, not just marketing promises. Consider your priorities: program length, facility size, and treatment focus areas (trauma, co-occuring disorders, etc.). We discuss key questions to ask, like family involvement, staff qualifications, and treatment approaches offered. The episode also explores the benefits of smaller facilities with experienced staff and lower turnover rates. While activities and experiential therapy can be valuable additions, a strong focus on clinical therapy and medication management is key.
