Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize parents have many questions about our teen rehab program, from insurance coverage and family visitation policies to educational support and living arrangements.
Rest assured, we accept most insurance plans, offer weekly family visits, and provide thorough academic coordination with your teen’s home school to guarantee they stay on track.
Our facility features both private and semi-private rooms, and we maintain strong family involvement through regular therapy sessions, updates, and educational workshops to assist your entire family throughout the recovery journey.
Does insurance cover treatment?
In accordance with federal regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), insurance typically covers all or part of adolescent addiction treatment costs.
At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ll help you understand your insurance coverage and verify your benefits before treatment begins. The ACA requires insurance providers to cover essential health benefits, including substance use disorder treatment, while the MHPAEA guarantees that mental health and addiction benefits aren’t unfairly limited.
We accept most major insurance plans, and our admissions team will work directly with your insurance provider to determine your coverage level and any out-of-pocket expenses.
If you don’t have insurance or need additional financial options, we’ll discuss alternative payment arrangements to guarantee your teen can access the care they need.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
During your teen’s treatment at Montville Adolescent Center, family visits take place every Sunday during designated hours.
We recognize the importance of maintaining family connections during treatment, which is why we’ve established clear guidelines to ensure these visits support your teen’s recovery journey.
To participate in visitation, family members and guardians must be at least 18 years old and receive prior approval from our clinical staff.
Additionally, we require all visitors to attend a Family Support Session before their first visit, as this helps create a more meaningful and therapeutically beneficial experience.
While we encourage family involvement, we’ve structured our visitation policy to maintain a stable treatment environment, allowing your teen to focus on their recovery while still benefiting from essential family support and connection.
Do you offer support to family members?
Throughout a teen’s recovery journey, families receive thorough support through multiple specialized programs at Montville Adolescent Center.
We’ve designed our family support system to include weekly family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and regular progress updates to guarantee parents and guardians remain actively involved in their teen’s treatment process.
Our all-encompassing family program incorporates evidence-based approaches like parent-teen communication training, coping skills development, and conflict resolution strategies.
Through our Family Support Sessions, we’ll help you understand your teen’s challenges, recognize warning signs, and develop practical tools for supporting their recovery at home.

What educational coordination is offered?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we maintain strong partnerships with local school districts to guarantee your teen’s academic progress continues during treatment. Our dedicated academic program includes two hours of structured daily education, working directly with your child’s school to ensure proper credit transfer and curriculum alignment.
We understand that keeping up with schoolwork is vital for your teen’s future success, which is why we’ve developed an extensive educational coordination system. Our staff regularly communicates with teachers and school administrators to track assignments, facilitate makeup work, and maintain academic momentum.
During their stay, your teen will participate in supervised study sessions in our well-equipped classrooms, where they’ll receive individualized support to help them stay on track with their studies while focusing on their recovery journey.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Many teens entering our program will have the option of either private or semi-private rooms at Montville Adolescent Center.
We’ve designed our living spaces to provide a safe, comfortable environment that promotes recovery and personal growth, while ensuring appropriate supervision and support throughout their stay.
Our gender-specific housing floors feature thoughtfully arranged accommodations that balance privacy with community connection, which we’ve found essential for therapeutic progress.
While room assignments depend on various clinical factors and availability, we work diligently to create living arrangements that support each teen’s treatment goals.
For families concerned about room assignments, we’re happy to discuss specific needs during the admission process, as we recognize that comfortable living spaces contribute markedly to successful treatment outcomes.
Do you prescribe medications?
While room accommodations guarantee physical comfort, medication management plays a key role in supporting our teens’ recovery journey.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve established a detailed protocol where any new medications or changes to existing prescriptions are thoroughly discussed with parents or guardians before implementation.
We’ll work closely with your teen’s current healthcare providers, which is why we request a signed Release of Information (ROI) form to facilitate communication with psychiatrists and primary care physicians.
This collaborative approach guarantees we can verify past treatment history and effectively communicate any medication adjustments for post-treatment care.
Our medical team maintains consistent oversight of all prescribed medications, prioritizing both safety and therapeutic effectiveness throughout your teen’s stay.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Maintaining structure and accountability forms the foundation of our teen treatment program. We enforce clear behavioral guidelines that promote safety, respect, and recovery, including strict policies against violence, substance use, or inappropriate relationships.
Our teens must follow their daily schedule, participate in all therapy sessions and activities, complete assigned schoolwork, and maintain proper hygiene and room cleanliness.
Additionally, we’ve established communication protocols that limit phone and internet access to guarantee focus on treatment, while still allowing scheduled family contact through approved channels.
To build responsibility and community awareness, we expect our clients to respect common areas, follow dress code requirements, and demonstrate courteous behavior toward staff and peers, which helps create an environment conducive to healing and personal growth.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending a teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility offers several strategic advantages for recovery. At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences creates a fresh environment where teens can focus solely on their healing journey, free from local peer pressure and established patterns of behavior.
We’ve observed that out-of-state treatment often provides enhanced privacy and confidentiality, allowing teens to return home without the stigma that might accompany local treatment.
Additionally, our location’s accessibility, just 45 minutes from Manhattan, combines the benefits of distance with convenience for family involvement. Through our thorough family therapy program, we make certain parents remain actively engaged in their teen’s recovery process, even when they’re receiving care across state lines.

Starting your teen’s recovery journey is straightforward at Montville Adolescent Center. When you contact our admissions team, one of our dedicated counselors will conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment over the phone to confirm we grasp the right fit for your child’s needs.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and discuss any financial considerations.
Once we’ve determined coverage details, we’ll work with you to arrange a convenient intake time that works best for your family’s schedule.
Throughout this process, our compassionate team will guide you through each step, answering any questions you might’ve about our programs, facility, or treatment approach.
We recognize this can feel overwhelming, which is why we’ve streamlined our admission process to be as efficient and stress-free as possible.
