Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize that parents and guardians have many questions about our teen rehabilitation program, including concerns about insurance coverage, family visitation policies, and educational continuity during treatment.
Our extensive teen rehab program accepts most insurance plans, offers weekly family visits and therapy sessions, maintains academic progress through school district partnerships, and provides both private and semi-private room options for ideal comfort.
Through our dedicated support team and structured environment, we’re committed to addressing all your concerns while creating a therapeutic setting where teenagers can focus on their recovery journey and personal growth.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Insurance coverage for teen addiction treatment is readily available through most major providers, thanks to important healthcare regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
These laws guarantee that insurance companies must cover essential health benefits, including mental health and substance use disorder treatment, making care more accessible for families seeking help for their teens. That said, coverage varies by provider and plan, and costs vary accordingly.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we accept most major insurance plans and work directly with providers to maximize your coverage.
We’ll help verify your benefits and explain exactly what’s covered, including detox services, residential treatment, and therapeutic programs.
If you don’t have insurance or need additional options, our admissions team can discuss alternative payment arrangements to guarantee your teen gets the care they need.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Parents considering treatment often ask about staying connected with their teen during the recovery process. At Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize the significance of family involvement in recovery, which is why we’ve established structured visitation opportunities every Sunday during designated hours.
We maintain specific guidelines to guarantee a therapeutic environment, allowing visits from family members and guardians who are at least 18 years old. Before any visitation can occur, our clinical staff must approve all visitors, and family members are required to participate in a Family Support Session.
This requirement helps create a more meaningful connection between parents and teens while supporting the treatment process. Through these carefully managed visits, we help maintain essential family bonds while assuring your teen’s treatment progress remains uninterrupted.
Do you offer support to family members?
Throughout the recovery journey, family support and healing play a significant role at Montville Adolescent Center. We provide extensive support services for families, including regular family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and weekly updates on their teen’s progress.
Our family-focused approach includes dedicated Family Support Sessions, which are mandatory before visitation and help parents understand their teen’s treatment process.
Through our specialized family therapy program, we address underlying family dynamics, improve communication patterns, and develop healthy coping strategies that benefit the entire family unit.
Additionally, we offer resources and guidance to help families deal with the challenges of supporting a teen in recovery, while our clinical team remains available to address concerns and questions throughout the treatment process.
What educational coordination is offered?
Maintaining academic progress remains a top priority at Montville Adolescent Center. We actively partner with each teen’s home school district to guarantee curriculum alignment and attendance credits, helping students stay on track with their studies during treatment.
Our daily schedule includes two dedicated hours of academic instruction and physical education activities.
We understand that education shouldn’t pause during recovery, which is why we’ve developed a thorough approach to academic support. Our staff coordinates directly with teachers and school administrators to gather assignments, facilitate makeup work, and maintain educational continuity.
Through our structured academic program, we’re able to help teens navigate smoothly back to their regular school environment once treatment is complete, minimizing any potential gaps in their education.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Beyond academic support, living arrangements play a key role in the recovery process. At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private room options to accommodate our teenage clients’ needs during their treatment journey.
Our gender-specific housing floors guarantee appropriate boundaries and comfort, while our thoughtfully designed living spaces promote a therapeutic environment that supports healing and personal growth.
We understand that having personal space is important during treatment, which is why we’ve carefully structured our accommodations to balance privacy with community engagement.
While we can’t promise private rooms for every client, we work diligently to create comfortable living arrangements that support each teen’s recovery goals, taking into account individual circumstances and clinical recommendations when making room assignments.
Do you prescribe medications?
When it comes to prescribing medications at Montville Adolescent Center, we follow strict medical protocols that prioritize transparency and collaboration with families.
Our medical team will thoroughly discuss any new medications or changes to existing prescriptions with parents or guardians before implementation, ensuring everyone is informed and comfortable with the treatment plan.
If your teen currently works with a psychiatrist or primary care provider, we’ll need a signed Release of Information (ROI) form to facilitate communication with these healthcare professionals during your child’s stay.
This collaboration allows us to verify previous treatments and effectively communicate any medication adjustments that may be needed for post-treatment care, creating a seamless continuation of care that supports your teen’s recovery journey.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
At Montville Adolescent Center, your teen will follow a structured set of rules designed to create a safe, supportive environment for recovery.
We’ve established guidelines that include attending all scheduled therapy sessions, participating in daily activities, and maintaining appropriate behavior with staff and peers. Students must also follow our dress code, which prohibits exposing clothing and inappropriate messaging.
To guarantee everyone’s safety and focus on recovery, we don’t allow cell phones or unauthorized electronic devices during treatment.
Your teen will need to respect quiet hours, keep their living space tidy, and follow our visitor policies.
While these rules may seem strict, they’re essential for creating the structure and stability that supports successful recovery, helping teens develop responsibility and self-discipline that will serve them well beyond their time in treatment.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility offers several key advantages for their recovery journey. At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences can greatly enhance the recovery process, allowing teens to focus entirely on their healing journey.
The change in environment often leads to deeper engagement in treatment, as teens aren’t distracted by local peer pressure or the temptation to leave treatment prematurely.
Additionally, out-of-state care provides a fresh start where your teen can develop new perspectives and coping mechanisms without the burden of local reputation or past experiences.
Our location, just 45 minutes from Manhattan, offers the perfect balance of accessibility and separation, ensuring families can still participate actively in treatment while maintaining therapeutic distance.
How do I get started?
Starting the recovery journey for your teen is a straightforward process at Montville Adolescent Center. Our dedicated admissions team begins with a brief, 10-minute phone assessment to guarantee we’re the right fit for your child’s specific needs and circumstances.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits to determine coverage options and discuss any additional financial considerations.
Once these preliminary steps are complete, we’ll work with you to schedule an intake appointment that accommodates your family’s schedule.
Throughout this process, our experienced admissions counselors will guide you through any necessary paperwork, answer your questions, and explain what you and your teen can expect during treatment.
We’re committed to making the admission process as smooth and stress-free as possible during this challenging time.
