Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize that parents have many questions about our teen rehab program, including concerns about insurance coverage, visitation policies, family support services, educational continuity, and living arrangements.
While our facility offers both private and semi-private rooms, we maintain thorough insurance coverage for treatment, coordinate closely with schools to prevent academic disruption, and provide extensive family support through regular visitation and therapy sessions.
Through our structured approach to teen rehabilitation, we guarantee that every aspect of care, from medical treatment to family involvement, is carefully designed to support long-term recovery success.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Insurance typically covers all or part of teen addiction treatment costs, thanks to key healthcare regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
We’re pleased to share that the ACA mandates insurance providers to cover essential health benefits, which include both mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) treatment for teens.
Additionally, the MHPAEA guarantees your access to addiction and mental health benefits by preventing insurance companies from imposing unfair limitations.
While we accept most major insurance plans, we encourage you to connect with our admissions counselors for a detailed benefits verification.
They’ll help determine your coverage levels and discuss any additional payment options that might be necessary to guarantee your teen receives the thorough care they need.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
During your teen’s recovery journey at Montville Adolescent Center, family visitation takes place every Sunday during designated hours.
We recognize the importance of maintaining family connections while your child is in treatment, which is why we’ve established clear guidelines to ensure productive and supportive visits.
To maintain a therapeutic environment, we require all visitors to be family members or legal 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 preparatory session helps create meaningful interactions that support your teen’s recovery process.
We’ve designed these policies to protect our clients’ well-being while fostering the vital family connections that contribute to successful long-term recovery outcomes.
Do you offer support to family members?
Beyond family visits, extensive support for parents and guardians forms a key part of our treatment approach at Montville Adolescent Center.
We provide thorough family therapy sessions that help address underlying dynamics, communication patterns, and strategies for supporting your teen’s recovery journey. Throughout your child’s stay, we’ll keep you regularly updated on their progress and offer educational workshops designed to enhance your understanding of addiction and mental health challenges.
Our family support program includes weekly therapy sessions, educational seminars about substance use disorders, and practical guidance for creating a supportive home environment after treatment.
We’ll also connect you with local support groups and resources, ensuring you have the tools and knowledge needed to effectively support your teen’s ongoing recovery process while maintaining your own emotional well-being.
What educational coordination is offered?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we team up with each teen’s home school district to guarantee they stay on track academically during treatment.
Our structured program includes two hours of daily academic instruction, and we work diligently to make certain all coursework aligns with their school’s curriculum requirements.
We maintain regular communication with teachers and school administrators to coordinate assignments, track progress, and facilitate attendance credits.
During treatment, teens participate in supervised study sessions in our well-equipped classrooms, where they can complete homework and prepare for upcoming tests.
Our educational coordination ensures a seamless shift back to their regular academic environment once treatment concludes, preventing any disruption to their educational journey while they focus on their recovery and personal growth.
Will my teenager have their own room?
While maintaining academic progress is important during treatment, many parents also want to know about their teen’s living arrangements.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private room options in our gender-specific housing floors, ensuring your teen’s comfort and privacy during their stay with us.
Our thoughtfully designed living spaces prioritize both safety and comfort, allowing teenagers to feel secure while maintaining appropriate boundaries.
We’ve found that having roommates can actually benefit many teens in treatment, as it provides opportunities for peer support and social skill development, though we do evaluate each situation individually.
If your teen has specific needs or concerns regarding room arrangements, we’re happy to discuss these during the admission process to determine the most suitable option.
Do you prescribe medications?
Medication management plays an essential role in our teen treatment program. At Montville Adolescent Center, we maintain clear communication with parents and guardians regarding any medication decisions, making certain they’re fully informed before we implement new prescriptions or modify existing ones.
We recognize the importance of coordinating care with your teen’s current healthcare providers, which is why we request signed Release of Information (ROI) forms to facilitate communication with psychiatrists and primary care physicians.
During your child’s stay, our medical team carefully monitors all medications while documenting their effectiveness and any necessary adjustments. This thorough approach allows us to verify previous treatment protocols and guarantee a seamless shift of medication management when your teen returns home, as we’ll communicate all medication changes to their regular healthcare providers.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Our teen treatment program maintains clear behavioral expectations and structured guidelines to create a safe, therapeutic environment for all residents.
We’ve established essential rules that include respecting staff and peers, participating in all scheduled activities and therapy sessions, and maintaining appropriate boundaries. Additionally, we require teens to follow our dress code, keep their living spaces tidy, and refrain from any physical aggression or inappropriate language.
To protect everyone’s recovery journey, we don’t allow personal electronic devices, and we carefully monitor all forms of communication with the outside world.
We also enforce strict policies regarding contraband items, including drugs, alcohol, weapons, or any materials that could compromise the therapeutic setting.
These guidelines aren’t meant to be restrictive but rather to foster accountability and personal growth throughout the treatment process.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility can provide several strategic advantages for their recovery journey. At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences often creates a clearer path to recovery.
Our serene New Jersey setting offers a fresh perspective for out-of-state clients. Our location, just 45 minutes from Manhattan and accessible from 19 commuter rail stations, makes us an ideal choice for families seeking extensive care away from home.
We’ve designed our program to maintain academic continuity through partnerships with local schools, ensuring your teen won’t fall behind while receiving treatment. Additionally, the separation from their usual environment can help break established patterns and provide the space needed to develop new, healthier coping mechanisms under our specialized care.
How do I get started?
Getting started with your teen’s treatment journey takes just a few simple steps at Montville Adolescent Center. When you contact our admissions team, we’ll connect you with a dedicated counselor who’ll conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment of your teenager over the phone to guarantee we’re the right fit for their needs.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits, if applicable, and discuss payment options that work best for your family.
Once the financial aspects are addressed, we’ll schedule your teen’s intake appointment at our facility in Towaco, New Jersey.
