Reviewers frequently praised the facility's supportive and loving atmosphere, the peer-to-peer support system, and the staff, many of whom are in recovery themselves and knowledgeable about the 12 steps. Several individuals credited the program with providing the tools necessary for successful, long-term recovery. However, some reviewers criticized the strict rules, specifically the use of group punishments and lockdowns, and expressed concerns about potential bias in peer evaluations leading to program setbacks.

<p><strong>ABOUT WOMEN’S ADDICTION RECOVERY MANOR</strong></p> <p>Set in northwestern Kentucky on the banks of the Ohio River, Women’s Addiction Recovery Manor (WARM) is a non-profit organization that offers one of the only <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/KY17.pdf" target="_blank">40 (11.1 percent)</a> <strong>long-term residential treatment programs for substance abuse</strong> in the state. This center is <strong><a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/reclaiming-the-feminine-in-recovery" target="_blank">exclusively for women</a>,</strong> making it one of the only <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/KY17.pdf" target="_blank">155 (43.2 percent)</a> in Kentucky with this specifically-tailored track. Residents must be 18 or older and not pregnant at the time of entry. Detox services are not offered on-site.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>The program is <strong>peer-driven, 12-step based</strong>, and supplemented by the Kelly Foundation’s <a href="http://www.kellyfdn.com/about.htm" target="_blank">Recovery Dynamics treatment model</a>, an activity curriculum based on progress through the 12-Steps. WARM also follows a <strong>social model of recovery.</strong></p> <p>Residencies <strong>typically last around six months</strong> and consist mainly of 12-step meetings and off-site Recovery Dynamics classes. The program runs on extensive <strong>peer mentorship</strong> — once a resident’s sobriety has stabilized and she has nearly completed the steps, she becomes a mentor to other women in the program. At this point she is also able to gain outside employment, rebuild bridges with loved ones, and address any outstanding legal issues.</p> <p>Women must be comfortable walking, as women walk two miles round trip to off-site recovery meetings. </p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>WARM’s treatment team, which is mostly female, includes a registered nurse and certified alcohol and drug counselors. Six Rehabs.com survey respondents to date provided high ratings for the center's staff.</p> <blockquote> <p>Counseling Options: 4.2/5 stars<br /> Staff's Level of Training and Experience: 4.5/5 stars</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Clients live in a 32-unit apartment complex (<strong>72 beds total</strong>) adjacent to the WARM campus. Each unit has two or three <strong>private bedrooms</strong>, a fully equipped kitchen, a washer/dryer hookup, and access to secure mailboxes, grills, a picnic area, gym equipment, and a playground (though children are not allowed to stay for long-term visits).</p> <p>The facility is tobacco-free and smoking is prohibited anywhere on campus. Cell phones are also prohibited. Visitation is not allowed for the first ten days of the program, and afterwards must coordinate with the staff. Clients are responsible for cleaning, house repairs, laundry, meal preparation, and lawn care services.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>WARM has been received very positively by the six alumni polled by Rehabs.com to date. Of the four who were surveyed if they would recommend the facility, all alumni gave five out of five stars. Beyond that, alumni tended to give high marks to exercise and leisure, but lower ratings to the level of family participation. </p> <blockquote> <p>Exercise and Leisure Options: 4.5/5 stars<br /> Family Participation: 2.8/5 stars</p> </blockquote> <p>Alum C.D.W. wrote, “Well I think it is a good place for women that need it but the way they do things their I think is not right like how one person can cause all women in their to be locked down and cause all others not see their loved ones.” Another alum, who agreed with the "strict rules," also positively added, "Loving atmosphere... able to talk to staff at any time, peer to peer support."</p> <p>On its official Facebook page, which it can manage, the facility earned 4.6 out of five stars from 122 reviews.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> Alumni praised <strong>valuable education and outstanding peer support</strong>.

She also provided four-star ratings for the level of family participation and the center's exercise options, adding, “Excellent staff, very fair rules. My daughter was a resident there for 9 months.
