Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
We recognize that families have many questions about our teen rehabilitation program, from insurance coverage and visitation policies to academic support and room arrangements.
Our thorough insurance verification process helps determine coverage options, while our structured visitation program allows approved family members to visit on Sundays and participate in Family Support Sessions.
Through partnerships with local schools, personalized academic coordination, and semi-private room arrangements, we guarantee your teenager maintains educational progress while receiving the individualized care and privacy they need for recovery.
Does insurance cover treatment?
In most cases, insurance covers all or part of teen addiction treatment costs due to significant healthcare regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
These laws guarantee that insurance providers must include coverage for mental health and substance use disorder treatment as essential health benefits, protecting families’ access to crucial care resources.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we accept most major insurance plans and work diligently to maximize your benefits.
We’ll help verify your coverage and explain any out-of-pocket expenses before treatment begins.
If you’re concerned about costs, our admissions team can discuss various payment options and work with you to make treatment accessible.
We believe that financial considerations shouldn’t prevent any teen from receiving the care they need for recovery.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Montville Adolescent Center welcomes family visits during designated hours on Sundays, allowing parents and guardians to maintain significant connections with teens in treatment.
We recognize that family support plays a fundamental role in recovery, which is why we’ve established a structured visitation program that prioritizes both connection and therapeutic progress.
Before any visits can occur, we require that all visitors are at least 18 years old and have received prior approval from our clinical staff.
Additionally, family members must participate in a Family Support Session, which helps create a foundation for productive visits and ensures everyone understands their role in the recovery process.
Through this carefully managed approach, we’re able to maintain the integrity of our treatment program while fostering the essential family bonds that support long-term recovery success.
Do you offer support to family members?
Family involvement extends far beyond regular visitation at our center. We recognize that addiction affects the entire family system, which is why we’ve integrated thorough family support services into our treatment approach.
Through our dedicated family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and support groups, we help parents and siblings comprehend addiction, develop healthy communication strategies, and learn effective ways to support their teen’s recovery journey.
We also provide regular updates on your teen’s progress, invite family participation in treatment planning meetings, and offer resources specific to family healing.
Our family support program includes psychoeducational sessions about substance use disorders, coping skills workshops, and guidance on establishing healthy boundaries at home.
Additionally, we connect families with community resources and support groups that can provide ongoing assistance after treatment concludes.
What educational coordination is offered?
Our academic coordination guarantees your teen won’t fall behind in school while receiving treatment. We maintain active partnerships with local school districts to secure proper credit transfers and curriculum alignment, dedicating two hours daily to structured academic pursuits and physical education activities.
Our educational support includes direct communication with your teen’s teachers and school administrators, allowing us to track assignments, coordinate testing schedules, and maintain academic progress throughout treatment.
We’ll work closely with your child’s home school to create a seamless shift plan, securing they stay on track with their studies while focusing on recovery. Our staff regularly updates you on your teen’s academic progress, and we’ll help develop strategies to support their educational success both during and after treatment.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Beyond academic support, parents often ask about living arrangements at our facility. At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private rooms, thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and security during your teen’s recovery journey.
The rooms are arranged on gender-specific housing floors, guaranteeing appropriate accommodations that respect privacy while maintaining therapeutic support.

Our 1:1 staff-to-client ratio guarantees constant supervision and support, regardless of room type.
Do you prescribe medications?
Medication management at Montville Adolescent Center operates under strict medical supervision, with all prescribing decisions made in consultation with parents or guardians.
Before making any changes to existing medications or introducing new ones, we’ll thoroughly discuss the options with you to guarantee alignment with your teen’s treatment goals.
To provide seamless care coordination, we request that you sign a Release of Information (ROI) form if your teenager has an existing psychiatrist or primary care provider.
This authorization enables us to communicate effectively with their current healthcare providers, verify previous treatment protocols, and guarantee proper documentation of any medication adjustments made during their stay.
Following treatment, we’ll communicate all medication changes to your teen’s regular providers to maintain continuity of care.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Just as medication management follows clear protocols, structure and rules form the backbone of successful teen rehabilitation at Montville Adolescent Center. Our teens must follow a structured daily schedule that includes mandatory participation in therapy sessions, academic work, and group activities, while maintaining respectful behavior towards staff and peers at all times.
We maintain clear expectations regarding prohibited items, including cell phones, outside food or drinks, and any potentially harmful objects.
Additionally, we require teens to participate in daily medical check-ins, adhere to designated meal times, respect gender-specific housing arrangements, and follow our dress code policy.
These guidelines aren’t meant to be restrictive but rather to create a therapeutic environment where every teen can focus on their recovery journey without unnecessary distractions or safety concerns.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
While staying close to home may seem like the most comfortable option, sending your teenager to an out-of-state facility like Montville Adolescent Center often provides distinct advantages for recovery.
The physical distance can help break harmful local connections and patterns while providing a fresh environment for healing and growth.
We’ve found that out-of-state treatment allows teens to focus entirely on their recovery without daily distractions or negative influences from their usual social circle.
Our location, just 45 minutes from Manhattan, offers the perfect balance of accessibility and separation.
Additionally, the change in environment can help reset ingrained behaviors and thought patterns, while our specialized programs, including thorough academic support, guarantee your teen won’t fall behind in school during treatment.
This combination creates an ideal setting for sustainable, long-term recovery.
How do I get started?
Taking the first step toward teen addiction treatment is straightforward at Montville Adolescent Center. When you contact our admissions team, one of our dedicated counselors will conduct a brief, 10-minute phone assessment to guarantee we’re the right fit for your teen’s needs and circumstances.
After completing the initial assessment, we’ll verify your insurance benefits, if applicable, and discuss any additional payment options that might be necessary for your situation.
Once the financial aspects are addressed, we’ll work with you to arrange a convenient intake time that accommodates your schedule. Throughout this process, our experienced admissions team will guide you through each step, answer your questions, and guarantee you understand what to expect as your teen begins their recovery journey at our facility.
