The anonymous client simply gave the facility <strong>five out of five stars</strong> for treatment effectiveness. She indicated that the facility offered excellent leisure, exercise, and extracurricular options; and gave a neutral response when asked if the facility had high quality holistic offerings. She felt that a strength of the facility was the excellent staff but that a weakness was the transportation offered.

He indicated that the facility’s cell phone and visitation policy was fair; that the facility was clean and well maintained; and that there were many counseling options to choose from depending on the client’s preference. He felt that a strength of the facility was its hospitality but that the quality of the food served was not great.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>There is currently no information provided by the facility regarding its costs. However, one family member polled by Rehabs.com indicated that the the treatment plan was affordable but was then neutral when asked if the treatment and services offered at the facility were worth the cost.</p>
