The Recovery Village at Palmer Lake

Thank you Recovery Village at Palmer Lake for giving me the opportunity to take back my life and giving my family back their mother and wife. If you want a safe and highly professional program to help you understand your addition and implement the recovery tools you need to survive this confusing and devastating illness, you need to look NO FURTHER. Full disclosure: I’ve been to other treatment programs and all of them were helpful. However, there was something missing. I didn’t know exactly what until these past 45 days at Palmer Lake Recovery Village. I received a new level of education, trauma therapy, meditation and mindfulness skills, plus yoga and so very much more. I also must mention the unlimited access to a full contingent of licensed medical professionals. The flow of treatment is perfect. Beginning with a thorough medically supervised detox, all encompassing inpatient program, with the (imperative option in my opinion) of Intensive outpatient program with a thoroughly detailed after care plan. The staff here has a very unique combination of passion, expertise and unparalleled professionalism. All without ever neglecting the sensitive nature we addicts and alcoholics arrive on their doorstep with. Personally, my past included some significant trauma events. I really was unaware of how much impact this “old history” had on my life and my inability to stop my use of substances. But they knew and they encouraged me to address this, and made it safe for me to do so. Not everyone has big traumatic events in their past, but the small things that we brush off as insignificant can turn out to be really important. This is a first class treatment program that I would highly recommend to anyone suffering from the misery this disease brings. Hope is real and attainable. I have an honest fear of failing but I absolutely know that I have the tools, resources and an in-depth plan. If I follow it, I WILL NOT relapse. Palmer Lake made sure that I’m prepared for life with the support in place to thrive. Sincerely, Allison PS: Life can be fun sober! Thank you Sonny, Ashley, Amanda, Amanda, Cindy, Tony, Jessica, all the BHT staff, kitchen staff and everyone else dedicated to making our lives better!

Was in patient for 9 days- 7 days in detox which bills at $1100.00 per day. Was not approved after 2 days in residence to go to php. Discharged early due to family illness and tried to read it for further treatment after one week. They told me I wasn’t adherent to psychiatric meds they recommended, yet tithe psychiatrist opted for supplements- Sam-E and 5 HTP to try first never mentioning psychiatric meds. Then they were to have had a meeting to discuss readmission. No return call for 3 days then called admissions and they stated I was “too acute” to readmit. Spoke to overseeing gentleman and then recieved call that my primary diagnosis was psychiatric with substance abuse secondary. On the website the facility clearly treats co expiation disorders to substance abuse. Also recieved abill for first day forarmour thyroid, clonidine, trazadone and flexeril none of which I took. Was onmelatonin small ant Benadryl for sleep and only took one Ativan 1mg first nite of stayDo not understand decision making process for refusals to accept a patient back and falsifying records. Loved two staff members as well as therapists. Lacking in ownership and responsibilities for clients

This facility is in an old motel. Mold, wet carpets when in rains. Was sold as an alternative to AA .Not.the food is inedible. I wouldn’t feed it to my dog - he deserves better.some 3 some rooms. The main concern is passing out cigarettes twice a day. They have no concern about withdrawal - I was taken off Klonopin and Ambian cold turkey. All medical findings suggest a slow withdrawal. THEY DONT HAVE A CLUE.

I had a good experience here. I was an alcoholic for 30 years and became sober thanks to The Village. 2019
