Finding And Rating A Rehab Center

By Julio Knebel


Alcoholism and drug abuse is the main concerns for treatment accepted in Kentucky rehab centers. If you are planning to admit yourself or another person in a rehab facility, there are many options that you can get from the internet. There are even centers that allow clients to accomplish all the paperwork and even the payments online.

There are many exclusive facilities that offer treatment for persons who are financially able. There are also alternative centers that offer not only healing for the body but also for the mind. Some centers offer total healing of the mind, body, and spirit. Since there are several health insurances that cover this kind of care, make sure that your insurance is accepted in the center where you wish to be admitted.

If you are not located near any of the popular rehab centers, you can locate one using the directory provided specially for rehabilitation. These locators only require information about state where you live in and your complete address. They will then provide you with a list of the nearest facilities.

The yellow pages also provides the names and contact details of some of the facilities for treating drug and alcohol abuse. Shop around and ask about the types of programs these facilities are offering as well as the cost, duration of the treatment, and the methods used for the healing.

After making a short list of the possible centers to go to for treatment, you have to evaluate the facility before making any commitments. First, set an appointment with the head counselor or therapist and request for a tour. Make a list of the things that you should check before making the trip.

On arrival, obtain any brochures that the facility may have. You can use these handouts to make comparisons on the actual condition and what was advertised. Do not forget the list of things that you require answers for. You can inquire about the ratio of one on one therapy sessions to group therapy. A facility with a good program for rehabilitating their patients should also be able to provide a good balance of both to enhance the chances of recovery. There should also be sufficient supervision provided for each patient.

A tour of the place should include the inpatient facilities used in the treatment process. This may be, but not limited to classrooms, meeting rooms, stations for nurses, and the detoxification site. The kitchen should also be included in the tour.

Make casual interaction with the staff that you meet during the visit and ask them questions related to their role in the operation of the center. Take note of their answers. You can use all the information that you need to decide which Kentucky rehab facility to use for treatment.
