GBBilling and intake a horrible experience Intake was an awful experience. Florida agent assured that we had a bed available and we arrived to a full institution. Also, agent did not inform us that she wouldn't be admitted if blood alcohol level exceeded a certain level so they sent us to hospital for detoxification.

GBKept me sober but improvement is needed. The majority of the staff are good people, some in recovery, that really want to help. I had a good therapist but not enough time with her, once a week max and part of that time is making a "recovery plan" which takes away from dealing with the reasons you're there. The groups aren't that helpful. There's a mix of people, different ages, some avoiding jail time and not really interested in recovery. It makes sharing and focusing on the topic difficult. The nutritionist doesn't have a lot to offer for recovery. They push AA but there's not enough work dealing with the deeper issues. The staff is overworked. They don't have enough resources. The place is new and the rules change frequently which is frustrating. It's clean, the food is good, the actual "therapy" part of it needs work and the management needs to be more consistent.

GBHorrible place! There for more than eight different things I was told in order to get me down there. None of them ended up being true. For example, there was a five-star chef. That was not true. I was told I would see my therapist 4 times a week. That was not true. I was told we would have yoga and massages. That was not true. I was told we would have Equine Therapy. That was also not true and the list goes on. They say that in order to persuade people to get there, and it is deceitful. We were locked in when its already tough enough to be sober, and the medical and clinical staff are sub par. There was a boy who overdosed and died in the treatment center while we were there in treatment and it was a horrible experience. I understand that treatment centers are also a business, but this one is a perfect example. It is simply about the money and they don't care. There are a few that therapist there who do care but overall I would recommend going somewhere else.

GBGo elsewhere. Co-ed not controlled. Husband woke up the first night with the roommate hand up his leg. He was terrified. He was uncomfortable that female nurses check him in with all 'pockets' checked. Too many smoke breaks. Should offer nicotine therapy instead. Massages given if you can afford them. A couple of very good clinicians. To me this facility focuses more in keeping a clean appearance than their 'clients' as patients are called. Inappropriate co-ed contact was reported on field trip while my loved one was there.

GBExtremely dissatisfied I was in recovery once this year at The Recovery Village in Columbus Ohio. It went ok I had a relapse so I returned. I thought it was a place that cared and was trying to help people. But found out they care for nothing but money. I was not even threw detox when they found out my insurance would not cover it they asked me to leave immediately. They gave me no after care plan. This stay was chaotic it was understaffed. Most of staff was friendly but did not have a clue what was going on. To find out all this place does is scam insurance. extremely dissatisfied patient.
