Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
At Guardian Recovery’s Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize parents have many questions about their teen’s treatment journey, from insurance coverage and family visitation policies to educational continuity and living arrangements.
We’re proud to offer extensive insurance verification services, weekly family therapy sessions, seamless academic coordination with home schools, and both private and semi-private room options to guarantee comfort during treatment.
Through our structured programming and dedicated support team, we maintain regular communication with families while providing teens the therapeutic environment they need to focus on their recovery, including supervised Sunday visitation hours and ongoing educational support.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Insurance coverage for teen addiction treatment is protected by federal law through two key regulations – the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
At Montville Adolescent Center, we’re committed to helping families access the care they need, and we accept most major insurance plans.
Through these federal regulations, insurance companies must cover essential health benefits, including substance use disorder treatment and mental health services, at the same level as medical care.
We’ll work closely with your insurance provider to maximize your coverage benefits, and our admissions team can verify your specific coverage details before treatment begins.
For families without insurance, we offer additional payment options to guarantee treatment remains accessible, as we believe cost shouldn’t be a barrier to receiving quality adolescent care.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Family visits play an essential role in our teen treatment program at Montville Adolescent Center, which is why we’ve established structured visitation hours every Sunday.
Before participating in visits, family members and legal guardians who are 18 or older must receive approval from our clinical staff and attend a mandatory Family Support Session.
To maintain the therapeutic environment and guarantee the safety of all our residents, we’ve implemented specific guidelines for visitation. Our clinical team carefully evaluates each visitor request, considering the teen’s treatment progress and family dynamics.
During these Sunday visits, families have the opportunity to strengthen their connections, practice newly developed communication skills, and actively participate in their teen’s recovery journey, all while under the supportive guidance of our experienced staff members.
Do you offer support to family members?
Throughout a teen’s recovery journey, we provide extensive family support services that include regular therapy sessions, educational workshops, and ongoing communication with our clinical team.
Our family-centric approach recognizes that healing extends beyond the individual teen, which is why we’ve developed thorough support programs that equip families with essential tools and knowledge for long-term success.
We offer weekly family therapy sessions, bi-weekly educational workshops covering topics like addiction science and communication strategies, and regular progress updates from our clinical team.
Additionally, our Family Support Sessions, which are mandatory before visitation, help parents and guardians understand their teen’s treatment progress and learn effective ways to support their recovery.
Our staff is always available to address concerns and provide guidance throughout the treatment process.
What educational coordination is offered?
Our educational coordination team works closely with each teen’s home school district to maintain academic progress during treatment.
We dedicate two hours daily to structured academics, guaranteeing students don’t fall behind in their coursework while receiving the care they need. Our staff collaborates with teachers and administrators to facilitate attendance credits and align our curriculum with each student’s educational requirements.
We understand that maintaining academic momentum is vital for our teens’ future success, which is why we’ve integrated education as a fundamental component of our program.
Throughout their stay at Montville Adolescent Center, students receive individualized academic support, and we maintain regular communication with their schools to guarantee a seamless shift back to their regular academic environment after treatment.
Will my teenager have their own room?
At Montville Adolescent Center, teens have access to both private and semi-private room options.
We’ve thoughtfully designed our living spaces to create a comfortable, home-like environment that supports our clients’ recovery journey while maintaining appropriate clinical supervision and safety protocols.
Our gender-specific housing floors guarantee that male and female residents have separate living areas, and each room is furnished with essential amenities to make our teens feel at ease during their stay.
While we can’t promise private room placement, as room assignments depend on various factors including clinical considerations and current occupancy, we work diligently to accommodate individual needs and preferences whenever possible, always keeping our clients’ comfort and therapeutic progress in mind.
Do you prescribe medications?
In accordance with our medical protocols, any medication changes or new prescriptions require direct consultation and approval from parents or guardians before implementation.
We recognize the importance of coordinating care between all healthcare providers involved in your teen’s treatment journey, which is why we request that you complete a Release of Information (ROI) form if your child has an existing psychiatrist or primary care provider.
This documentation enables us to verify previous treatment history and maintain clear communication about any medication adjustments during your teen’s stay with us.
After discharge, we’ll make certain that all medication changes are properly communicated to your child’s regular healthcare providers, creating a seamless shift in their ongoing care plan and maintaining consistency in their treatment regimen.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
While medication management plays an important role in treatment, behavioral expectations form the foundation of our therapeutic environment.
We maintain a structured, supportive setting where teens must follow specific guidelines, including attending all scheduled therapy sessions, participating in group activities, and respecting designated quiet hours.
Our rules emphasize respect for staff and peers, prohibit physical aggression or threatening behavior, and require compliance with our electronics policy, which limits device usage to designated times.
Additionally, we’ve established clear boundaries regarding appropriate dress code, personal space, and interpersonal interactions.
These guidelines aren’t meant to be restrictive but rather to create a safe, healing environment where teens can focus on their recovery journey, develop healthy habits, and learn valuable life skills that will serve them well beyond treatment.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager out of state for treatment can provide several meaningful advantages. At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences often creates a stronger foundation for recovery.
The change in environment allows teens to focus entirely on their healing journey without daily pressures from their usual social circles.
Additionally, out-of-state treatment offers your teen the opportunity to build new, healthy relationships with peers who share similar recovery goals.
While we’re conveniently located just 45 minutes from Manhattan, our serene New Jersey setting provides enough separation to help break destructive patterns.
We’ve designed our program to guarantee academic continuity through partnerships with local schools, making the shift smoother when your teen returns home after completing treatment.
How do I get started?
Getting started with our teen rehabilitation program involves a straightforward admission process that prioritizes your family’s needs.
When you call our admissions team, one of our dedicated counselors will conduct a brief 10-minute pre-assessment for your teenager over the phone, ensuring we’re the best match for their specific situation.
After completing the assessment, we’ll immediately verify your insurance benefits, if applicable, and discuss any additional payment options that might be necessary.
Once we’ve addressed the financial aspects, we’ll work with you to arrange an intake time that accommodates your schedule.
Throughout this process, our experienced team remains available to answer any questions about our programs, facility amenities, or treatment approaches, ensuring you feel fully informed and supported in taking this important step toward your teen’s recovery.
