Councilors help you get into after care. Food is not very good. I've been throught 3 detoxs at this facility and they are very helpful and caring.

When you are in any of the three programs they offer, (detox, holding, residential), the first thing I noticed when I arrived is how caring the staff is. By the time you go through the process required when you first get there, the counselor who checked you in makes you feel so welcome, like its a family. When you get to your room, the other staff on the floor will greet you also, and make sure you have everything you need for your room, medications set up with the nurse, and instructions on how the days go. All day you attend meetings, an hour at any time, and they cover a range of topics-all the things you need to be learning. By the time you get up the next morning, it feels like a family atmosphere. Because you're all there for the same reason. The structure of the days, meals, group, breaks, and even a time in the afternoon that some small chores are divided up between the patients, to keep the section you are in clean. You even have smoke breaks 8 times a day, for the people that smoke and would rather not quit yet. If you do want to, the nurse will set you up immediately with the patch or nicotine gum. The nurse also is there to give medications when they are scheduled, and if anything else does come up when you are there, say, a cold, an infection of some kind, even 'girl' problems, she calls the doc to get a prescription added to what you are already taking, if anything. I highly recommend any of the three programs they offer. I feel its the best place around to give you exactly what you need for all issues. I've been to other facilities in the past and Spectrum is by far the best.

You not keep you long enough they do not have enough staff they also make you go to too many groups while you're trying to detox and not feel good to see you're not listening to what they're saying.

This place is absolutely useless. I was a patient there per court order. Spectrum messed up billing my insurance so many times that it resulted in missed appointments that were required by court. In the end spectrum figured out how to bill my insurance, after I stopped going there and went to the VA. Thankfully there was a direct paper trail proving Spectrum's incompetence, otherwise my legal issues would have been greatly magnified. Absolutely do not bother wasting your time with Spectrum

No one turned away due to ability to pay. However, there is no client autonomy in treatment planning, extra high relapse rate, evidence of employee burn-out.

This was my first experience with a detox center and I would not recommend this facility to any one. I voluntarily entered the program and was kicked out of the program for a mistake on there end. I was not allowed to explain my side of the situation or even talk to the person who accused me of falsifying my info. I was put in a cab and dropped of at the train station. After multiple unreturned phone calls I finally was able to talk to the program director who lied and changed her story many times. She told me drug addicts where untrust worthy. Bottom line is this place is not run well.

They need to improve their holistic options and family participation. However, treatment was very effective.
