How to Choose a Private Drug Rehab

Treating a drinking problem or drug addiction requires the right approach to the recovery process. Each individual has different needs and concerns, says the National Institute on Drug Abuse, so an effective treatment program must address multiple concerns, goals and complications that impact a personal recovery. In some cases, a luxury facility offers the tools and privacy that you need to improve your health.

Evaluating Private Programs

Choosing a private drug rehab program for alcohol dependence or substance abuse requires some consideration for the program and the facilities. Each treatment facility offers different services, treatment options and tools to help reduce the risk of relapse and improve your success rate.

Considerations for any luxury facility include:

  • The cost of treatment and your budget
  • Your insurance policy and coverage
  • The amenities in the program
  • The treatment approaches
  • Alternative treatments or options
  • Holistic healing solutions
  • Limitations in the program
  • Privacy policies and security

Ideally, a private facility offers a high level of security to help maintain your privacy throughout the recovery process. It should have strict privacy policies and take measures to maintain discretion so that you can focus on recovery. You also want a program that offers several treatment options like cognitive therapies, counseling and alternative therapies to help reduce the risk of relapsing and improve your ability to focus on your goals.

Comparing Programs

Never enter a treatment program without comparing the options. Look at several facilities and read the reviews about the facility before starting your treatment plan. Ideally, you want to enter a facility with excellent reviews from unbiased sources. You also want to make sure it has the ability to handle any problems or concerns that might arise. For example, you want a program that addresses co-occurring disorders or that has medical supervision for any health concerns that might arise.

Consider the cost of treatment and your budget before you finalize a program. Although your insurance policy might pay for a portion of the expense, the exact limitations and details will depend on your coverage. Do not assume that your coverage applies to a specific program and read the policy for details about the limitations or standards of the policy.

Entering a private drug rehab program allows you to focus on long-term goals and improve your health. Since it offers a high level of security, you can move forward with recovery goals without worrying about potential complications associated with the stigma of substance abuse.
