Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize that parents have many questions when considering treatment for their teen, including concerns about insurance coverage, family involvement, and educational continuity during their stay.
Our thorough program addresses these common concerns through extensive insurance coverage options, weekly family therapy sessions, structured visitation schedules, and dedicated academic support to keep your teen on track with their studies.
While teens typically share semi-private rooms to encourage healthy social interaction and peer support, we maintain a carefully supervised environment with individualized attention through our 1:1 staff-to-client ratio.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Addressing a common concern among parents, insurance typically covers all or part of adolescent addiction treatment costs thanks to key healthcare regulations.
Two important laws protect your access to treatment coverage: the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which requires insurance companies to cover essential health benefits including substance use disorder treatment, and the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), which prevents insurers from imposing unfair limitations on addiction and mental health benefits.
At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ll work directly with your insurance provider to determine coverage levels and out-of-pocket expenses.
We accept most major insurance plans, and our admissions counselors can verify your benefits and explain potential costs during your initial consultation, helping you understand exactly what portion of treatment your insurance will cover.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Parents wondering about visiting their teen during treatment will be pleased to know that Montville Adolescent Center maintains a structured visitation policy. We schedule all visits on Sundays during designated hours, ensuring a balanced approach between family connection and therapeutic progress.
To maintain our commitment to safety and recovery, we’ve established specific guidelines for visitation. Only family members and legal guardians who are 18 years or older may visit, and all visitors must receive prior approval from our clinical staff.
Additionally, we require visitors to participate in a Family Support Session before their first visit, which helps create a more meaningful and therapeutically beneficial experience. This approach allows us to maintain program integrity while fostering the vital family connections that support long-term recovery success.
Do you offer support to family members?
Family involvement forms a cornerstone of successful teen recovery at Montville Adolescent Center. We offer extensive support services for families, including weekly family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and regular progress updates to help parents and guardians understand their teen’s treatment journey.
Our family support program includes specialized components designed to strengthen family dynamics and improve communication. Through our Family Support Sessions, which are mandatory before visitation, we provide parents with essential tools and strategies for supporting their teen’s recovery.
Additionally, we offer ongoing consultation with our clinical team, who can address concerns and questions throughout the treatment process, while our family workshops cover vital topics such as setting boundaries, rebuilding trust, and understanding addiction’s impact on family systems.
What educational coordination is offered?
Throughout a teen’s stay at Montville Adolescent Center, we coordinate closely with their home school district to maintain academic progress and guarantee seamless credit transfer.
Our dedicated academic program includes two structured hours of daily educational activities, where students receive individualized attention to stay on track with their coursework.
We understand that education shouldn’t stop during treatment, which is why we’ve developed strong partnerships with local school districts to guarantee curriculum alignment and attendance credits.
Our staff works directly with each teen’s teachers and school administrators to collect assignments, facilitate course completion, and maintain academic momentum.
Additionally, we provide progress updates to both families and schools, creating a supportive bridge that helps students shift smoothly back to their regular academic environment after completing treatment.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Privacy and comfort are key considerations during a teen’s stay at Montville Adolescent Center. We recognize that personal space plays an essential role in the recovery process, which is why we offer both private and semi-private room options within our gender-specific housing floors.
Our thoughtfully designed living spaces prioritize comfort while maintaining appropriate supervision levels for safety and support.
While we can’t guarantee private rooms for every resident, as room assignments depend on various factors including clinical recommendations and availability, we guarantee that all accommodations provide a peaceful environment conducive to healing and reflection.
In semi-private rooms, we carefully consider roommate pairings to create positive, supportive living situations that can actually enhance the therapeutic experience through peer support and accountability.
Do you prescribe medications?
Medical care extends beyond room arrangements at our center, and medication management is an important part of many teens’ treatment plans.
We’ll discuss any potential new medications or changes to existing prescriptions with parents or guardians before implementing them, guaranteeing complete transparency in your child’s care.
If your teenager currently works with a psychiatrist or primary care provider who prescribes medications, we’ll need you to sign our Release of Information (ROI) form.
This important documentation allows us to communicate directly with these healthcare providers during your teen’s stay, helping us verify previous treatment protocols and coordinate any medication adjustments.
We’ll also make certain that all involved medical professionals are informed about medication plans for post-treatment care, creating a seamless shift for your child’s ongoing recovery journey.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Structure and rules form the foundation of our teen rehabilitation program, creating a safe and productive environment for recovery. Our guidelines include maintaining respect for staff and peers, following the daily schedule, participating in all therapy sessions and activities, and adhering to our zero-tolerance policy for drugs and alcohol.
We’ve established clear expectations regarding appropriate dress code, personal boundaries, and behavioral conduct, while prohibiting the use of personal electronic devices during treatment.
To guarantee everyone’s safety and success, we require teens to remain on facility grounds unless accompanied by staff, attend all medical check-ins, and complete assigned therapeutic work.
Additionally, we maintain strict policies about appropriate communication with family members and visitors, which must align with our therapeutic goals and visiting schedules.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Several compelling benefits come with choosing out-of-state treatment for your teenager. When teens receive care away from their familiar environment, they’re removed from negative peer influences and destructive patterns that may have contributed to their substance use.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance often creates the emotional space needed for real transformation and healing.
Additionally, out-of-state treatment can provide your teen with a fresh start, allowing them to focus entirely on their recovery without daily reminders of past struggles.
We’re located in a serene setting that’s still accessible, just 45 minutes from Manhattan, making it convenient for family therapy sessions while maintaining that vital separation from triggering environments.
This balance of distance and accessibility often proves instrumental in achieving lasting recovery outcomes.
How do I get started?
Starting your teen’s journey toward recovery is straightforward with our streamlined admission process. When you call our admissions team, we’ll begin with a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment over the phone to confirm our program aligns with your teen’s specific needs and circumstances.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll work directly with your insurance provider to verify benefits and discuss coverage options, making sure you understand the financial aspects of treatment.
For families without insurance coverage, we’ll investigate alternative payment solutions to make treatment accessible. Once these preliminary steps are complete, we’ll coordinate a convenient intake time that works for your family.
Throughout this process, our dedicated admissions counselors will guide you, answer your questions, and ensure you’re fully prepared for your teen’s arrival at Montville Adolescent Center.
