Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize parents have many questions when seeking treatment for their teen, from insurance coverage and visitation policies to educational continuity and living arrangements.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we accept most major insurance plans, offer weekly family visits and therapy sessions, and maintain close coordination with your teen’s school to prevent academic disruption.
Our facility provides both private and semi-private rooms in a structured environment, where families receive extensive support throughout their teen’s recovery journey, including regular updates, family workshops, and therapeutic sessions.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Insurance coverage for teen addiction treatment is typically extensive, thanks to two major healthcare laws. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates that insurance providers must cover essential health benefits, including substance use disorder treatment and mental health services for adolescents.
Additionally, the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) guarantees that coverage for addiction treatment isn’t more restrictive than coverage for medical conditions.
We’re committed to helping families navigate their insurance benefits, and we accept most major insurance plans. Our admissions team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits in detail, including any potential out-of-pocket costs.
If you don’t have insurance, we’ll work with you to investigate alternative payment options, guaranteeing your teen can access the care they need.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
While understanding insurance coverage is important, many parents are equally concerned about staying connected with their teen during treatment.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize the essential role family connection plays in successful recovery, which is why we’ve established structured visitation opportunities every Sunday during designated hours.
To maintain a safe and therapeutic environment, we require all visitors to be family members or guardians who are at least 18 years old.
Before any visits can occur, our clinical staff must approve potential visitors, and family members are required to participate in a Family Support Session.
This requirement ensures that visits enhance your teen’s treatment progress while providing opportunities for meaningful family interaction and support throughout the recovery journey.
Do you offer support to family members?
At the heart of successful teen recovery lies extensive family support, which is why our program incorporates multiple resources for parents and family members. Through our thorough family therapy sessions, we help families address underlying issues, improve communication patterns, and develop healthy coping strategies together.
We provide weekly family support groups, educational workshops, and one-on-one counseling sessions to help parents understand their teen’s recovery journey.
Our family program includes detailed instruction on setting boundaries, recognizing warning signs, and creating a supportive home environment. Additionally, we offer ongoing resources such as parent support networks, educational materials, and access to our clinical team for guidance throughout treatment.
Parents and guardians also receive regular progress updates and participate in treatment planning to guarantee the best possible outcomes for their teen.
What educational coordination is offered?
Education remains a top priority during treatment, which is why we maintain strong partnerships with local school districts to guarantee your teen stays on track academically.
We dedicate two hours daily to structured academic work, making certain your child can continue their studies while receiving treatment. Our staff coordinates directly with your teen’s teachers to align coursework and maintain proper credits for attendance.
Working closely with your child’s home school district, we’ve developed a thorough system that allows for seamless curriculum integration and credit transfer.
Additionally, we provide specialized academic support through certified educators who understand how to balance therapeutic needs with educational requirements.
This coordinated approach helps confirm your teen won’t fall behind during their stay and can shift smoothly back to their regular school environment after completing treatment.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Teenagers admitted to Montville Adolescent Center have access to both private and semi-private room options. When determining room assignments, we carefully consider each client’s specific treatment needs, clinical recommendations, and personal comfort level to guarantee the most therapeutic environment possible.
Our gender-specific housing floors provide additional privacy and security for all residents.
Each room, whether private or semi-private, is thoughtfully designed to create a calm, nurturing atmosphere that supports recovery and emotional well-being.
We’ve equipped our living spaces with comfortable furnishings and adequate storage, while maintaining strict safety protocols that align with behavioral healthcare standards.
For those in semi-private accommodations, we utilize a thorough matching process that considers factors such as age, treatment goals, and behavioral compatibility to create positive shared living experiences.
Do you prescribe medications?
Medication management plays an essential role in our extensive treatment approach at Montville Adolescent Center. As part of our inclusive care, we’ll discuss any new medications or changes to existing prescriptions with parents or guardians before making adjustments to your teen’s treatment plan.
To facilitate seamless coordination of care, we request that you sign a Release of Information (ROI) form if your teenager currently has a psychiatrist or primary care provider.
This documentation allows us to communicate effectively with their existing healthcare providers, verify previous treatments, and relay any medication modifications that occur during their stay.
Through this collaborative approach, we’re able to maintain continuity of care and ensure that all medication-related decisions support your teen’s recovery journey, both during treatment and after they return home.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
While proper medication management supports recovery, a structured environment with clear expectations helps teens thrive during their treatment journey. At Montville Adolescent Center, we maintain specific guidelines to guarantee safety, respect, and therapeutic progress for all our residents.
Our teens must follow a structured daily schedule that includes medical check-ins, academic work, therapy sessions, and recreational activities.
We’ve established clear expectations regarding appropriate behavior, including respect for staff and peers, participation in all scheduled activities, and adherence to our no-contraband policy.
Additionally, we require teens to maintain proper hygiene, follow dress code guidelines, and respect designated quiet hours.
Cell phones and personal electronic devices aren’t permitted during treatment, though we provide supervised communication opportunities with family members at scheduled times.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teen to an out-of-state treatment facility offers three key advantages for their recovery journey.
First, physical distance from triggering environments and negative peer influences creates a fresh start, allowing your teen to focus entirely on their recovery without local distractions.
Second, out-of-state treatment provides a heightened sense of confidentiality and privacy, which can be particularly important for families in smaller communities where stigma may be a concern.
Third, we’ve found that the psychological impact of traveling for treatment often reinforces the significance of the recovery process, helping teens view their rehabilitation as a transformative journey rather than just another local appointment.
Additionally, the new surroundings and perspectives gained through out-of-state treatment can contribute to more meaningful personal growth and lasting behavioral changes.
How do I get started?
Once you’ve decided that treatment is right for your teen, getting started at Montville Adolescent Center is straightforward.
Our admission process begins with a simple phone call to our dedicated admissions team, who’ll conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment to guarantee we’re the right fit for your child’s needs.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits or discuss alternative payment options that work for your family.
Once the financial aspects are addressed, we’ll schedule an intake appointment that accommodates your schedule.
During this time, we’ll gather necessary medical records, complete required paperwork, and develop a preliminary treatment plan.
Our goal is to make the admission process as seamless as possible, allowing your teen to begin their recovery journey without delay.
