Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize that parents and guardians have many important questions about our teen rehabilitation program, including concerns about insurance coverage, family visits, educational continuity, and living arrangements.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we’re committed to providing thorough answers about our treatment approaches, which include accepting most insurance plans, offering weekly family visits, and maintaining academic progress through partnerships with local schools.
Our dedicated team coordinates all aspects of care, from private and semi-private room assignments to family therapy sessions, ensuring both teens and their loved ones receive the support they need throughout the recovery journey.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Yes, insurance typically covers all or part of teen addiction treatment costs through key healthcare regulations.
Both the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) guarantee extensive coverage for substance use disorder treatment, making it more accessible for families seeking help for their teens.
We’re happy to assist you in understanding your insurance benefits and coverage options.
Through the ACA’s essential health benefits requirement, insurance companies must provide coverage for mental health and substance use disorder treatment, while the MHPAEA prevents insurers from imposing unfair limitations on these benefits.
We’ll work directly with your insurance provider to determine your exact coverage and help maximize your benefits, making sure you understand any potential out-of-pocket costs before beginning treatment.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Family visitation plays an essential role in every teen’s recovery journey at Montville Adolescent Center. We schedule regular visitation opportunities every Sunday during designated hours, ensuring that families remain actively involved in their teen’s treatment progress while maintaining a structured therapeutic environment.
To maintain safety and security, we’ve established specific guidelines for family visits. Only approved family members and legal guardians who are 18 years or older may participate in visitations, and all visitors must first receive clearance from our clinical staff.
Additionally, we require family members to attend a Family Support Session before their first visit, which helps create a more meaningful and therapeutically beneficial interaction between teens and their loved ones during these important reconnection times.
Do you offer support to family members?
Throughout treatment at Montville Adolescent Center, extensive family support remains a cornerstone of our therapeutic approach. We acknowledge that addiction affects the entire family system, which is why we’ve developed thorough support services that include weekly family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and regular progress updates.
Our family support program incorporates evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including regular family counseling sessions that address communication patterns, boundary-setting, and conflict resolution.
We’ll provide you with educational resources about addiction, recovery, and mental health, while teaching practical skills for supporting your teen’s recovery journey.
Additionally, we encourage participation in our family support groups, where you can connect with other families facing similar challenges, share experiences, and learn valuable coping strategies that will benefit your entire family’s healing process.
What educational coordination is offered?
Educational coordination at Montville Adolescent Center works in close partnership with each teen’s home school district to maintain academic progress during treatment.
We dedicate two hours daily to structured academic activities, ensuring students don’t fall behind in their coursework while focusing on their recovery journey.
Our extensive educational support includes direct communication with teachers and guidance counselors from the teen’s home school, coordination of assignments and materials, and facilitation of attendance credits.
We’ve developed an integrated approach that combines therapeutic healing with academic achievement, as we recognize that educational continuity is vital for our clients’ long-term success.
Through our collaborative relationships with local school districts, we’re able to provide seamless curriculum integration that allows for a smoother changeover back to regular academic life after treatment completion.
Will my teenager have their own room?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private room options for our teenage clients.
Our thoughtfully designed living spaces prioritize comfort, safety, and a therapeutic environment that supports recovery and personal growth.
We’ve carefully arranged our accommodations across gender-specific housing floors to guarantee appropriate boundaries and privacy.
We understand that having personal space is vital during treatment, which is why our rooms are equipped with essential amenities while maintaining a serene, distraction-free environment.
While room assignments depend on various factors, including clinical considerations and availability, we’ll work with families to determine the most appropriate accommodation option for their teen.
Our staff maintains 24/7 supervision of all living areas, safeguarding the safety and well-being of every client throughout their stay.
Do you prescribe medications?
While our living spaces provide physical comfort, medication management plays a key role in our extensive treatment approach. At Montville Adolescent Center, we discuss any new medications or changes to existing prescriptions with parents and guardians before implementation, ensuring complete transparency in your teen’s treatment journey.
To maintain seamless coordination of care, we request that parents sign a Release of Information (ROI) form if their teen already has a psychiatrist or primary care provider. This authorization allows us to effectively communicate with these healthcare professionals throughout your child’s stay, verify previous treatment protocols, and discuss any medication adjustments that may be needed during and after treatment.
Our goal is to create a comprehensive medication management plan that supports your teen’s recovery while keeping you informed every step of the way.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Like any structured therapeutic environment, our adolescent treatment program maintains clear behavioral expectations and guidelines that help create a safe, respectful community for all residents.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve established essential rules including mandatory participation in all scheduled activities, respect for staff and peers, maintenance of personal space, and adherence to designated quiet hours.
We strictly prohibit any form of violence, bullying, or inappropriate behavior, while also restricting personal electronics and maintaining a dress code that promotes focus on recovery.
Our teens must follow their individualized treatment schedules, attend all therapy sessions and academic periods, and comply with medication protocols when applicable.
These guidelines aren’t meant to be restrictive but rather to foster accountability, structure, and healthy boundaries that support long-term recovery success.
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 significant therapeutic advantages. At Guardian Recovery’s Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance often creates a beneficial separation from negative influences and triggers that may have contributed to substance use.
This separation allows teens to focus entirely on their recovery journey without daily environmental pressures.
Additionally, out-of-state treatment offers a fresh perspective and clean slate, which we’ve seen help many adolescents break free from established behavioral patterns and social dynamics.
While we’re conveniently located just 45 minutes from Manhattan, we provide enough distance to minimize impulsive leaving while maintaining accessibility for family therapy sessions and visitation.
Our specialized program offers the perfect balance of separation and support, ensuring your teen receives thorough care while staying connected to family.
How do I get started?
Starting the teen rehab admission process at Montville Adolescent Center is straightforward and efficient. 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.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and discuss any additional payment options that may be necessary.
Once the financial arrangements are confirmed, we’ll work with you to schedule an intake appointment that accommodates your family’s schedule. During this process, we’ll provide detailed information about what to expect, including necessary documentation and items to bring.
Our team understands this can be a challenging time, which is why we’ve streamlined our admission process to make it as smooth as possible for both parents and teens.
