Our dedicated admissions team is available 24/7 to provide detailed answers about our program, including questions about mental health services, medication management, and how we keep teens engaged in their education while receiving treatment.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Thanks to essential healthcare regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), insurance typically covers most or all of the costs associated with teen addiction treatment.
We’ve found that these laws guarantee insurance companies can’t impose unfair limitations on mental health and substance use disorder benefits.
We accept most major insurance plans, and we’ll help you understand exactly what’s covered. Our admissions team will verify your benefits and provide a detailed breakdown of any out-of-pocket expenses you might expect.
If you’re concerned about costs, we’ll work with you to investigate additional payment options and create a manageable financial plan.
We believe that getting your teen the help they need shouldn’t be hindered by financial constraints, which is why we’re committed to finding solutions that work for your family.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Visiting your teen during treatment is an important part of their recovery journey at Montville Adolescent Center.
We’ve established structured visitation hours every Sunday to ensure that families can maintain meaningful connections while adhering to our therapeutic protocols.
To maintain a safe and supportive environment, we require all visitors to be family members or legal guardians who are at least 18 years of age.
Before any visits can occur, our clinical staff will need to review and approve potential visitors.
Additionally, family members must participate in a Family Support Session.
This requirement helps ensure that visits contribute positively to your teen’s recovery process and that family members understand how to best support their loved one during treatment.
Through these carefully managed visits, we create opportunities for healing while maintaining the structure essential to successful recovery.
Do you offer support to family members?
Throughout the recovery journey, family support plays an important role in achieving positive outcomes for teens struggling with addiction.
We’ve designed extensive support services that include weekly family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and regular progress updates to keep families actively engaged in their teen’s recovery process. Our dedicated family program helps parents and guardians understand addiction’s impact while developing essential communication skills and healthy boundaries.
During treatment, we provide families with resources to address challenges, including access to support groups and counseling services.
We’ll work closely with you to address concerns, explain treatment protocols, and develop strategies for supporting your teen’s recovery at home. Additionally, our family support specialists are available to answer questions and provide guidance throughout your teen’s stay at Montville Adolescent Center.
What educational coordination is offered?
Our educational coordination team works closely with each teen’s home school district to guarantee academic progress continues during treatment.
We dedicate two hours daily to structured academics, making certain students maintain their coursework momentum while receiving essential therapeutic care. Our staff actively collaborates with teachers and guidance counselors to align curriculum requirements and secure attendance credits.
We understand that maintaining academic progress is vital for a teen’s future success, which is why we’ve developed an all-encompassing system to integrate education seamlessly into the treatment schedule.
Through our partnerships with local schools, we’re able to provide appropriate educational materials, facilitate makeup work when needed, and guarantee a smooth shift back to regular academics after treatment concludes.
Will my teenager have their own room?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we provide both private and semi-private room options for teens in treatment. Our thoughtfully designed living spaces prioritize comfort, safety, and a therapeutic environment that supports recovery and personal growth during each client’s stay with us.
We understand that having appropriate personal space is essential for teenagers during treatment, which is why we’ve created living arrangements that balance privacy with opportunities for positive social interaction.
Our gender-specific housing floors provide additional comfort and security, while our carefully maintained facilities include spacious rooms with storage for personal belongings.
Whether your teen is assigned to a private or semi-private room, we guarantee they’ve the space they need to reflect, rest, and focus on their recovery journey.
Do you prescribe medications?
Beyond providing comfortable living spaces, medication management plays a key role in many teens’ treatment plans.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we maintain strict protocols regarding medication management, guaranteeing that any new prescriptions or changes to existing medications are thoroughly discussed with parents or guardians before implementation.
To promote thorough care coordination, we request that families sign our Release of Information (ROI) form, which allows us to communicate directly with your teen’s current psychiatrist or primary care provider.
This collaborative approach enables us to verify previous treatment history and effectively communicate any medication adjustments that may occur during your child’s stay, ultimately supporting a seamless shift in their post-treatment care.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
While maintaining a supportive environment, Montville Adolescent Center enforces clear behavioral guidelines to assure safety and therapeutic progress.
We require all teens to follow our structured daily schedule, which includes attending all therapy sessions, academic classes, and group activities. Our clients must respect staff and peers, maintain appropriate boundaries, and refrain from any violent or aggressive behavior.
Additionally, we don’t allow personal electronic devices, including cell phones and tablets, to assure focus on recovery and prevent outside distractions.
During their stay, teens must participate actively in their treatment plan, complete assigned therapeutic work, and follow our dress code policy.
We’ve found that these guidelines create an environment where everyone feels secure and can concentrate on their recovery journey, while building positive relationships with peers and staff members.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility offers three key advantages for their recovery journey.
First, physical distance from familiar triggers and negative peer influences creates a fresh environment where they can focus solely on their recovery.
Second, out-of-state treatment often reduces the likelihood of leaving treatment against medical advice, as the geographical separation makes it more difficult to impulsively abandon the program.
Third, and perhaps most importantly, receiving care away from home helps teens develop independence and self-reliance while building new, healthy relationships with peers who share similar recovery goals.
While it’s acknowledged that sending your child far from home isn’t an easy decision, we’ve found that the change in environment often leads to more successful, sustainable recovery outcomes.
How do I get started?
Getting started with our teen rehab program involves just three simple steps.
First, when you call our admissions team, one of our dedicated counselors will conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment over the phone to guarantee we’re the right fit for your teenager’s specific needs.
Next, we’ll verify your insurance benefits, if applicable, or discuss alternative payment options to determine the most feasible financial arrangement for your family.
Finally, once we’ve completed the initial assessment and financial verification, we’ll work with you to schedule an intake appointment that accommodates your schedule.
Throughout this process, our compassionate admissions team will guide you every step of the way, answering any questions you may have about our program at Montville Adolescent Center and helping to make the shift as smooth as possible.
