Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize parents have many questions about our teen rehab program, including concerns about insurance coverage, family involvement, and educational support during treatment.
Insurance typically covers most or all treatment costs, while our structured visitation program and thorough family therapy sessions guarantee ongoing connection and support throughout your teen’s recovery journey.
Through partnerships with local schools, dedicated academic hours, and individualized living arrangements in private or semi-private rooms, we maintain your teenager’s educational progress while providing a comfortable, therapeutic environment for healing.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Thanks to regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), most insurance plans cover teen addiction treatment either partially or fully.
The ACA requires insurance providers to include mental health and substance use disorder treatment as essential health benefits, while the MHPAEA guarantees these benefits aren’t limited unfairly.
We accept most major insurance plans, and we’ll help verify your coverage before treatment begins.
Our admissions team can perform a complimentary benefits check to determine your exact coverage levels and any out-of-pocket expenses you might incur.
If you’re concerned about costs, we’ll work with you to investigate all available payment options, including payment plans or other financial arrangements, to guarantee your teen gets the help they need.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Parents and guardians can visit their teens during designated hours every Sunday at our Montville Adolescent Center.
To ensure the safety and therapeutic integrity of our program, we require all visitors to be at least 18 years old and receive prior approval from our clinical staff.
Before participating in visitation, family members must attend one of our Family Support Sessions, which helps lay the groundwork for productive visits and strengthens the recovery process.
We’ve found that these structured visits, combined with our comprehensive family therapy program, play a vital role in maintaining healthy connections between teens and their loved ones during treatment.
While we understand families wish to maintain close contact, these guidelines help us create a balanced approach that supports both the treatment process and family bonds.
Do you offer support to family members?
Family support forms a core component of our thorough treatment approach at Montville Adolescent Center. Through our extensive family therapy sessions, we provide essential tools and resources to help parents and guardians effectively support their teen’s recovery journey.
We’ve designed our program to include regular family workshops, educational sessions about addiction and mental health, and ongoing communication with our clinical team.
To guarantee families feel supported throughout treatment, we offer weekly updates on their teen’s progress, family support groups where parents can connect with others facing similar challenges, and practical guidance for post-treatment success.
Our family therapy sessions address fundamental relationship dynamics, communication patterns, and coping strategies, while our dedicated staff remains available to answer questions and provide resources whenever needed.
What educational coordination is offered?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we coordinate extensively with each teen’s home school district to maintain academic progress during treatment. Our structured academic program includes two daily hours of focused educational activities, guaranteeing students don’t fall behind in their studies while receiving care.
We’ve established strong partnerships with local schools to facilitate attendance credits and maintain curriculum alignment, making the eventual shift back to regular classes as smooth as possible.
Our dedicated academic support team works closely with your teen’s teachers to track assignments, coordinate testing requirements, and guarantee educational continuity.
During treatment, we provide structured classroom environments where teens can complete schoolwork under professional supervision, while also participating in physical education activities that promote overall well-being and academic success.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Based on room availability and clinical recommendations, teenagers at Montville Adolescent Center may be assigned to either private or semi-private accommodations.
Our facility’s gender-specific housing floors guarantee appropriate separation, while our thoughtfully designed living spaces promote a safe, nurturing environment that supports recovery and personal growth.
We’ve found that room assignments can play a significant role in the therapeutic process, which is why we carefully consider each teen’s individual needs when making placement decisions.
While private rooms offer additional personal space and quiet time for reflection, our semi-private accommodations provide opportunities for supervised peer interaction and development of social skills.
In either case, we maintain constant oversight and structured support to guarantee your teenager’s comfort and safety throughout their stay at our center.
Do you prescribe medications?
Prior to prescribing any medications at Montville Adolescent Center, our medical team conducts thorough evaluations to determine appropriate treatment plans.
We’ll discuss any new medications or changes to existing prescriptions with parents or guardians before implementation, guaranteeing full transparency in your teen’s treatment journey.
If your teenager currently works with a psychiatrist or primary care provider, we’ll need you to complete our Release of Information (ROI) form.
This documentation allows us to communicate directly with their existing healthcare providers, verify previous treatments, and coordinate any medication adjustments during their stay.
Through this collaborative approach, we’re able to maintain continuity of care and guarantee that all medication decisions align with your teen’s overall treatment goals, both during their time with us and after discharge.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Our teen treatment program maintains clear behavioral expectations and structure to create a safe, therapeutic environment for all residents. We require teens to follow daily schedules, attend all therapy sessions and educational programs, and maintain appropriate boundaries with peers.
Cell phones and personal electronics aren’t permitted during treatment, though supervised phone calls with family are scheduled regularly.
Additionally, we expect residents to participate actively in their recovery by completing assignments, following staff directions, and showing respect to others. Teens must maintain personal hygiene, keep their living spaces tidy, and adhere to our dress code guidelines.
While these rules may seem strict, they’re designed to help teens develop responsibility, accountability, and healthy habits that will support their long-term recovery and personal growth.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
While local treatment programs offer convenience, sending a teenager to an out-of-state facility like Montville Adolescent Center can provide several unique advantages for recovery.
Out-of-state treatment creates physical distance from negative influences and triggers, allowing teens to focus entirely on their healing journey without local distractions or pressures from unhealthy peer relationships.
We’ve found that this geographical separation often helps reset behavioral patterns and provides a fresh perspective.
Our location, just 45 minutes from Manhattan, offers the perfect balance of accessibility and distance, while our specialized programs integrate seamlessly with your teen’s home school curriculum to prevent academic disruption.
Additionally, many families find that insurance coverage remains consistent across state lines, making our extensive treatment program a viable option regardless of your home location.
How do I get started?
Taking the first step toward teen addiction treatment is straightforward and begins with a simple phone call to our admissions team.
When you contact us, one of our dedicated counselors will conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment of your teenager over the phone to confirm we’re the right fit for their needs.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits, if applicable, and discuss any additional payment options that might be necessary.
Once the financial aspects are addressed, we’ll work with you to arrange a convenient intake time at our Montville Adolescent Center.
Throughout this process, our experienced admissions team will guide you through each step, answer your questions, and make certain you’re fully informed about our extensive treatment programs, making the shift into care as seamless as possible.
