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.

Terrible therapy Terrible therapy. Not 12 step base. Barely CBT. Not DBT. Trauma Therapist tells clinical director everything about patient's session then patient immediately discharged for bogus reasons. Like finical even though patient willing to be a self pay. Patients' rooms horrible. Hospital beds in each room and no televisions. Worst alcoholic and mental health treatment facility.

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.

Big mistake Insurance denied the claim because the documentation provided did not support what was billed. I agree. All this facility cares about is money and I was charged for many services that did not occur. Non of the amenities boasted by the admission liars... were offered. The bed I was provided upon arrival had been peed on, the staff didn't care and I ended up having to flip it. I also had no clean bed sheets and was told I'd have to wait a couple days to get clean bed sheets because it was women's laundry day not men's. How is it possible that a new admission is not provided with new bed sheets.

Billing 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.
