The program delivers the treatment into my home. The clinician's worked around my work schedule and helped me deal with stress that I get from work. The best thing was the work with my wife and kids. Involving the family therapist helped improve trust and communication between my entire family. The facility does not have groups and is only one on one. I don't consider this a weakness, however after being at so many treatment centers I have become accustomed to group therapy. Aware recovery care helped me transition home after my last stay in rehab. I have been to three in patient rehabs in the past and have always come home to go right back to work and taking care of my family. Aware helped me learn to ways to cope with the stress at work and home. In the past I have always struggled returning home after work and wanting to drink, but knowing there was someone there to meet with me and offer support helped me to get through my cravings until they were manageable and all but disappeared. Not only did my aware team become part of my family, the family therapist helped my family become united again. My husband was able to forgive me and my daughter was able to finally share how she was affected by my drinking. Unbelievably deep and heart wrenching family sessions, coupled with the help from my team, allowed my family to finally heal. It took time and was not easy, however we would have never been able to do it without the care and support that Aware provided us. Aware has a model that adapted to my lifestyle and has supported me to achieve the life I never imagined I would live again. I have recommended the program to a colleague and she is currently restoring her life as I did.
The wait time was 6+ hours. I know the staff was doing the best they could dealing with the incoming patients, insurance, etc.,...more staff means more cost for the patient too so I understand and, in a weird sort of way proves you really want to get better. I got to know some of the people I would be staying with which is a plus going into a great unknown. I strongly disagree with the lack of privacy...the incoming staff should be separated. I would almost go so far as to say, the stuff they were talking about was loud enough for all the hear! I thought that violated the right to privacy laws and was the very worse thing I remember. Knowing the average wait time they could move the incoming staff into one of the two side offices (privacy) and make the waiting room bigger....and provide more comfortable seating...just a one time investment and not looking for luxury...trying sitting 5+ hours in a dinner chair, cramped in that small area with 6-7 other people? In my -5-6 hours I never saw both those offices occupied at the same time and one was only open for a very short period...the other maybe 2-3 hours. I first checked in around 11AM on a weekday so they should have been at full-staff. Once you get pass the doors the place is great. I really felt very comfortable. I shared a room with 3 people with beds separated by curtains which provided enough privacy. Beds were good enough...no complaints..can\'t expect a Tempur-Pedic...lol. Big living room with plenty of couches and comfortable seats. Kitchen was always stocked with milk, juices and caffeine-free drinks (hot/cold). Healthy snack food was almost always available...cereal, PBJs, etc. Three square meals a day and the food was good to pretty good, not great and don\'t expect a Rib-eye steak 8^) They also bring out a night time snack...rotating between sandwiches (pretty bland, but that\'s what mustard and mayo are for..lol), Smartfood, granola bars...and always have a variety of fruit. No worries about being hungry! One of the most important aspects is the inside staff. Most, if not all of the main staff that stays on the floor 24/7 have been in your shoes so they understand, are not judgmental and make the stay even a little easier. On good weather days we were aloud to go outside...what a relief from the walls, even if it was only an hour every other day or so. The doctors and the front office staff also seemed understaffed which is a shame because it seemed to me that some people were pushed through...hospitals do this too All in all, I would definitely recommend this place
