Why Rocky Mountain Treatment Center is the Right Choice for You
Rocky Mountain Treatment Center in Great Falls Montana has been providing inpatient chemical dependency treatment services for over 30 years and has treated thousands of patients. Today, I would like to share with you some reasons why Rocky Mountain Treatment Center may be the right choice for you.
1. Staff. Rocky Mountain Treatment Center boasts a staff mostly in recovery themselves. If you add up all the time in sobriety of each staff member, they have an aggregate of 354 years of recovery among them. They do not just teach theoretical ideas. They give you tools along with their experience, strength and hope. Most important, Rocky Mountain has a 3:1 ratio of clients to counselor, one of the lowest in the industry. They are the program.
2. Equine Therapy Program. Rocky Mountain offers equine therapy to all its patients. Very few chemical dependency treatment centers nationwide offer this very valuable component. Check out their website and find out more about this highly effective programming. It is very cool.
3. Family Program. Alcoholism and addiction are family diseases. Families get sick together; families must get well together. Counselors work with family and the patient, culminating in a family week where all willing family members are invited to learn recovery strategies together. They have a dedicated family counselor that coordinates all of this.
4. 12-Step Program. Rocky Mountain programming is based on 12-step principles. As such, they provide opportunities for participation in Big Book studies, lectures and meetings. This is an effort to craft a recovery program that meets your specific needs that you can take with you when you go. That is what this is really all about.
5. Recreation Program. Rocky Mountain offers a plethora of recreational opportunities to its clients, on and off site. Arts and crafts, karaoke, bowling, hiking, movies, trips to parks, museums, and other attractions, volleyball and basketball are just a sampling of all the recreational opportunities enjoyed at Rocky Mountain. You will have some fun whether do you want to or not.
6. Mental Health and Grief/Trauma Counseling. Rocky Mountain is fully aware that many people suffering from addiction also have experienced traumatic events and have unresolved grief. As a results, clients oftentimes need additional support beyond standard chemical dependency treatment. Conditions such as anxiety, depression and PTSD are treated onsite concurrent with the chemical dependency program. They do it all right there.
Food for thought; Bon Appetit!
