In addition to 24-hour care, services include individual therapy, group counseling, <strong>relapse prevention</strong>, <a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/how-a-non-religious-journalist-makes-a-case-for-aa-in-2017/" target="_blank">12-step facilitation</a>, and <strong>addiction education</strong>.</p> <p>Though there is no information available online regarding length of treatment, an alum surveyed by Rehabs.com indicated that their treatment lasted between 15 and 29 days.</p> <p>Options for <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/extended-recovery-programs/" target="_blank">aftercare</a> include a weekly support group for graduates and <strong>on-site Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings</strong>. A women-only NA class is also offered. According to a <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/NY17.pdf" target="_blank">2017 SAMHSA survey</a>, 64.4 percent of treatment facilities in New York offer programs specifically tailored to adult women.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>While there is currently no information provided by the facility regarding its treatment staff, two individuals polled by Rehabs.com on the staff's level of training and experience both gave four out of five-star ratings.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>There is currently no information provided by the facility regarding its living arrangements and related offerings. However, one individual surveyed by Rehabs.com indicated that they had one roommate. The three individuals surveyed by Rehabs.com to date gave mostly four- and five-star ratings to relevant metrics, including the facility's cleanliness. However, all three gave only two- or three-star ratings to its exercise and leisure options.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>V.S., the sole alum polled by Rehabs.com to date, gave New Dawn a positive review* awarding the facility four or five out of five stars for meals and nutrition, cleanliness, inclusion of alternative approaches, and the quality of the lead counselor. The alum also indicated that they received the level of counseling promised by the program prior to entry, and that the counseling options empowered them to take charge of their behavior and daily routine. "I know there are facilities with a lot of fluff in them this was not the case at new dawn," V.S. wrote.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The two loved ones surveyed by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing gave New Dawn mixed feedback. In particular, the anonymous reviewers disagreed on the treatment effectiveness, meals and nutrition, and affordability of the program.</p> <p>However, both reviewers noted that there were not enough staff members and that the care was not personalized, but gave the facility high ratings of four or five out of five stars for family participation and treatment of <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring disorders</a>. They also agreed that the staff "truly cared," as one reviewer wrote. </p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>New Dawn is one of 382 (45.4 percent) of <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/NY17.pdf" target="_blank">treatment facilities in New York</a> that accept <strong>Medicare</strong> and one of 737 (87.5 percent) that accept <strong>Medicaid</strong>.
