Go 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.

Bull crap Well first I'm calling trying to get help or resources for help only to get disconnected several times before talking with someone .. finally get a hold of someone an dude is saying 900 a day for help which Is way more I even spend in a week on the drugs I'm trying to get off of .. then he hang up on me when trying to ask a question about the number he just gave me... How do people expect addicts to get sober when the help provided is so expensive or the people helping have never experienced their own demons with drugs before themselves... You can't get the help you need to get off drugs these days... People are trying to get clean an live a better life but society an the government makes it hard an to expensive to get it done

Detox too fast. I loved most of the staff. However, I left early because I felt the detox process was too rapid. I believe I would have been successful had someone listened to me and adjusted the process accordingly. Other than that, I would recommend Palmer Lake and would like to return for treatment as I am still looking for help. The anxiety I was experiencing caused me to behave poorly and was the reason I left the facility far earlier than I should have.

Kept 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.
