Offers so many different groups and resources. some staff is rude. This is a very structure facility and can help mothers that are addicts learn how to be a good sober parent.

Staff really cared about each individual. Very perceptive and effective treatment plan. The aftercare was good as well.

More Info
The first and most important thing to bring to recovery is the right attitude. You must first admit that you have a drinking problem over which you have no control, and you must be committed to the recovery process.
Beyond this, the staff will usually advise you as to want is allowed in treatment. Generally, items to bring include changes of clothing, toiletries and any prescription medications you may be taking. Usually, laptops and cell phones are not allowed, because outside contact during treatment may be counterproductive to the recovery process. This varies from one facility to another so check with the program in question to ensure you are wholly aware of their requirements.

Specific effects of alcohol include:
- Memory impairment (including blackouts)
- Liver disease (cirrhosis)
- Heart damage (cardiomyopathy)
- Nerve damage
- Vitamin deficiencies and malnutrition
If you find yourself experiencing blackouts during a night of drinking, it's a serious sign that you need immediate help. Contact one of our counselors today, who will put you in contact with the right treatment center in or near Ankeny that can help you.
