Bad Recovery experience During my stay at recovery village, my diabetes became the focus and not my recovery. The medical director felt that she could manage my diabetes than me under the direction of my diabetic physician. It got to the point where I couldn't even give myself my insulin in an appropriate fashion. As a type 1 diabetic, this is very upsetting. In addition, some of the "therapists" I felt performed their duties in an inappropriate manner. Putting patients on the spot, using patients to trigger or get someone to "open up" when they were hurting that person. All and all I would never refer anyone to this facility. I feel that medically, I shouldn't have been put in the position I was, where I couldn't consult with my physician, and whenever my doctors office called to help consult about my situation they were "refused". In summation, I do not feel like I "recovered" here. I was simply in a bubble where I couldn't drink.

would never recommend this facility Rebecca who checked me in was the only staff member that seemed to care. She was so nice and informative. Once I entered into the detox center I could not believe the attitudes of the employees. I was just there for a five day detox. We had meditation twice. The rest of the time you just did whatever you wanted, sleep, walk around or go out and smoke. No structure was so ever. The food was disgusting. I resorted to eating pbj sandwiches for dinner . The breakfasts were uneatable and the only good thing at lunch was a salad. I will never recommend this facility to anyone. They just want your money and don't pay any attention to your addiction or try to help you to recovery.

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.

Life changing experience I can't express enough how amazing my time at the recovery village was. I had no idea what to expect before I arrived but within the first few minutes I realized that this was the place that was going to help put my life back on track. The genuine care that I received from the entire staff was extremely comforting at the time I needed it most.
