This was probably one of the best experiences working with a debt collector. Understanding the situation and the potential concerns, the representative that handled my account was EXTREMELY professional, patient... but most of all, helpful. He assured me that after taking care of the outstanding debt, my credit report will be updated and should help the future of my credit moving forward. I appreciated his help and commend the way the entire business sees that all customers have a positive experience.

Loved working there. I miss it

Honestly i don’t even know where to start. I was coming off opiates with serious declining health, they didn’t care much. got to the point i could barely walk up the stairs there. I was able to do a facetime call to my mother when i was 8 days in (4 days post taper) and the first question my mom asked me was what drugs i was still on because i looked worse there than walking in (and trust me i was a mess walking in) Talking to numerous people expressing i’d like to leave the next morning (with arrangements already made for pick up) they continued to call my parents, girlfriend and other family members saying i was a danger to myself and others and it’s in everyone’s best interests that i stay as long as possible. Well, I left day 9. Here I am 8 months later living sober and better than ever. Despite the fact everyone told me I was nothing but a junkie leaving to get high.I left and immediately went into the ER with malnutrition because they have someone who graduated the program 3 months prior cooking.I would say go if it’s your LAST resort, as it was for me. Detoxed and done. They have no actual program going on

VERY THANKFUL FOR THIS PLACE , BUT MANAGEMENT IS SO HORRIBLE AND UNFRIENDLY HE BARELY EVEN WANT TO SPEAK WITH YOU THEY R SO CONCERN ABOUT INSURANCE MONEY AND NOT RECOVERY TI THE FULLEST. ENVIRONMENT IS HAZARDOUS COLD IN BEDS AND AND CLASSROOM AND I WILL CONTACT INDIANA BOARD OF HEALTH FOR THESE CONDITIONS. RACHEL IS AWESOMEBRANDON NEEDS A CLASS ON BEING A CEO AND MORE HOSPITALITY AND FIX THE PROBLEM S IN THIS COLD FACILITY I HAD TO SLEEP WITH A COAT IN BED EVERY NIGHT

I am 50 years old and i have spent the last 20 years of my life as an alcoholic. i have missed out on so much through out my kids lives its ridiculous. when i look at myself i do not recognize me sometimes my eyes are yellow and my skin does not look normal its terrible. i am not trusted to take care of my grand children because last time they were in my care i passed out and one of them got hurt pretty bad. i felt terrible. i realized i am not going to get any younger and it was too late to make things right with my children but i sure could make it right with my grand kids so i decided to go to treatment. my kids agreed that if i got help i could be with my grand children any time i wanted and that was motivation in itself to me i was ready definitely ready. i headed off to the treatment center the same day i called and i arrived at a beautiful facility. i was welcomed by the wonderful staff at choices recovery. i felt comfortable instantly and i knew this was going to be good for me. i completed the program and i am now 6 moths clean and sober and i have never felt so good in my life. i am in my grand kids lives a hundred percent i have a better relationship with my children i am finally free and living how i want to thanks to the staff and doctors at choices. i would not change my experience for any thing i love who i am today.

Been to 7 treatment centers & this is the worst place I’ve ever been to. There is a very good reason we called it the “compound”. Do your group till 3 then smoke cigs for the rest of the day. It’s filthy they do your out plan a day or two before you leave. I recommend Northern Illinois Recovery Center in crystal lake. Great place you go to outside meetings very clean good freedom to give you opportunities. Choices is a straight joke please please please don’t send your loved ones here

I am posting this under a pseudonym. I cant say enough good things about Choices recovery. I am grateful for this program and for the staff here. I have made many mistakes while attending Choices. I have broken rules and I have disregarded the welfare of my peers, all in the name of addiction and Choices did not throw me away, push me out or forget about me. They continued to let me attend their program and get treatment for my disease. Im grateful they recognize that my disease was working in full force and that is not the person Im striving to be. If you dont get anything out of choices it will be because you did not put anything into it. It is 100% what you put into it. I know I dont want to continue on this path and I am willing to go to any lengths to change the course of my life and thank God that Choices is here to help me with that. The only thing I find a little difficult is that there is a lot of down time after classes. I am aware that this is difficult for me so I am planning things to fill my time. Thank you Choices for more than Second Chances, third and fourth ones. I believe that I will be able to maintain sobriety if I work your program to the very best of my ability and I take the tools I learn and practice them in everyday life I thank you from the bottom of my heart, my cold black addicted heart lol

Choices Recovery has been a wonderful place to receive treatment at. All of the staff is very knowledgeable and patient when dealing with individuals such as ourselves who are struggling first hand with addiction. We all were treated with kindness and respect, and for the first time in a long time I do not feel like I was classified as a drug addict, but more so as an individual taking the steps needed to have a better life. I would recommend this place to anyone in need of treatment.

Choices is a good recovery program, and they have been so helpful in getting me past the demons that cause me to get into the life I was living. There is so much to learn, and it helps to have people that do this and help you get past the old life and into the new life to start again and live life drug-free and without all of the old things that kept you down and no living anymore.You have to know that when suffering from addiction, you need to work with professionals who understand substance abuse and how to deal with it. At Choices Recovery, you get a reliable partner who has your needs at heart. They know the consequences of your addiction and make a recovery from addiction to drugs and alcohol their priority. They know what you go through as an addict, and they make it their goal to reverse the physical and emotional damages that you have experienced so that you can be a productive member of the society again. You will make profound changes within yourself both mentally and physically at Choices. Choices Recovery cares to help you make informed decisions, and they help you get through so many obstacles that you have to deal with when you have so many things to learn and consider.

You might think that your problem is so severe that no program can handle it, but at Choices Recovery, they have a plan that suits you.

Drinking has always been my downfall. it has taken every thing from me my family my friends my health. i have lost so many jobs due to drinking. my last time drinking i was so drunk i fell in my bathroom and hit my head on the sink. i almost killed myself i woke up in the hospital and that day i decided to reach out for help. a lovely lady gave me the number to this place and i left the next day when i was released for treatment. i did amazing in treatment i went in looking sick and i came out bigger and better. i gained my healthy weight back i worked out every day they have an awesome gym here.it helped ease my mind from the thought of drinking. i am happy i made the choice to get help here it was the best decision of my life. Life is precious; it’s a journey and a battle. I went through a lot and came out the other side a better man. It was not easy admitting I was imperfect and no one ever wants to feel “less than”. If you or someone you know is struggling, speak up and ask for help.Today, my life is truly amazing, I have real friends, an amazing girlfriend and a loving family back in my life.I was able to start my own business that gives back to families that don’t know where to turn to help someone that is struggling with addiction. I am able to enjoy the things in life that matter like relationships, happiness, love and joy. I have gotten back into sports, golf and other hobbies that I once loved.Don’t be afraid! Getting clean and sober is the best decision you will ever make! Reach out for help.

I’ve been to Choices Recovery twice. I have been to multiple rehabs since I got hooked on pills. When my mom found Choices Recovery I didn’t really want to get clean. I had just gotten out of a different rehab and had relapse within 3 days of being home. I wasn’t really willing to get help but I agreed to go for my mom’s sake. The first time I went to Choices I did everything I had to do but my heart wasn’t really in it. I was just there to make my mom happy and while the program did help me and I managed to stay clean for a couple months after I left I did end up relapsing. After that last relapse, I used for 2 months and during that time I really started looking at my life and where I was headed if I kept getting high. Just going to rehab won’t really help you if you’re not completely committed to getting clean. It might help a bit but if you aren’t ready to get clean it won’t make you ready to get clean. At least for me that’s how it was. The thing is though, that when I left Choices for the first time and then relapsed I was more aware of what I was doing to my body and my life as a whole by continuing down the path on was on. When I went to my mom after I had relapsed and told her that I wanted to go back to Choices she didn’t want to send me back there and thought I would benefit more from a different program. I had to convince her of why going to back to Choices was the right thing for me. See, if I hadn’t have gone to Choices in the first place it would have been much longer before I wanted to get clean and actually stay clean for the rest of my life. So, my mom agreed to send me back to Choices and it was exactly the right place for me to be. I was happy to be there this time because I knew that this rehab would help me get clean and get my life back. Drugs had ruled my life for long enough and I wasn’t going to live like that anymore. The second time I went through Choices helped me tremendously. I did the program the second time not for my mom but for me. I wanted to change my life and I did. I’ve been clean for 6 months now and I’m happy this way. I’m not trying to stay clean anymore, I just am and doing what I need to do so I don’t slip up. It’s an amazing feeling to know that not only do I not need drugs to be happy, I just don’t want them. A year ago I couldn’t have imagined how well my life would be going. The first time I went to Choices it helped me realize what I was doing with my life and helped me get ready to truly change my life. Going to Choices the second time gave me the tools I needed to live the life I wanted to live. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for Choices and the people there who worked hard to help me.

Fun times! Not a 28 day place, expect 45-60 day stay. Nice wall/fence to prevent escape but you just need to be creative.

Choices Recovery is a well structured recovery center with a very knowledgeablestaff. SMART recovery class helped me to understand my addiction and Choices counseling staff helped and encouraged family therapy sessions which helped me better relationships in my life. Security staff as well as client services staff was always extremely helpful with any client needs 24/7. I would recommend this treatment facility to any family/friends/loved ones in need of help.

When i arrived to Choices I did not know what to expect. But i was welcomed by a great staff and made my intake easy and comfortable. I have been here for over 30 days and it feels like a second home. The classes are full of information and also the staff makes it a point to make the days go by fast. i am leaving Friday and am going to miss my second family. I would recommend this facility to everyone.

I have heard a lot about Choices Recovery from one of my friend. I did a research about this facility because I was curious how thing works at a facility like this one. I found out that my friend was right about Choices recovery the programs are very great and I like that they have different ways of healing and they don`t try to make people clean only one way. I think the holistic approach is the best way to go. It sound safe and there is no risk to become addicted to other drugs during the rehab just because they giving you prescription drugs. The staff is very caring and loving. They really care about the patients and their needs. I have seen a lot of success video about Choices Recovery and I can say that the programs they`re having work out for the patients pretty good. I saw all the patients so happy and grateful and they lucky they found this incredible place. They received the best from everything. If my friend or loved one are going to need some help with any addiction I will highly recommend this place it looks really the best!

I started partying a lot once I graduated from High school. I moved out of my parents’ house and into an apartment with a roommate. My first taste of freedom being on my own. At first I only partied when my friends did. But I soon found myself drinking and doing drugs more and more. Until one day I looked in the mirror and realized I was an alcoholic. I didn’t care that I was an alcoholic. I had come to terms with the fact that this would kill me. I didn’t care. This is the power of addiction.I remember bits and pieces of that final night that I drank. I was afraid to lose my life. I was an empty shell of the person I used to be. I was emotionally and spiritually bankrupt. My addiction had beaten me down. I was afraid that this time I might actually succeed in taking my own life. That night I decided to stop drinking. i asked for my dads help and that is when he found this place and i left the next day to come to treatment. i discovered my love for painting here in the art classes they offer. because of my skills i am now a very well known artist in my area and i could not be more proud of myself. addiction was hard but coming here ultimately led me to my calling and i am very successful. i made my family proud as well. thank you choices recovery for showing me the way i finally see the light in my life.

I gave up drugs and alcohol for good for my health my well being and my family. drugs have been a curse that has haunted my family for years. i of course said i would never do them but when your a curious careless teenager those thoughts change. I gave up every thing to do drugs for a long time and shamefully even sold my body when i had to.i felt so low and desperate i thought at one point i did not care if i overdosed i was not worth living any way.i really can not explain why i felt what i did but one day it was like a light bulb went off and i thought what are you doing this is not the life for you.i immediately got help while i was in that mode.i left and drove myself to treatment that very day.being here opened my eyes to a whole new world a better life full of hope and love and encouragement.i completed my program here after a few months and decided to go back to school.My life is so much better now and although I still am faced with trials from time to time, I have been given the tools to work through any situation without taking a drink or drug. I believe that this disease progresses whether I am actively using or not. I believe that my continued recovery is based on being spiritually fit. Every day I start with a prayer of gratitude. I read, meditate and reach out to others. If I find myself off-center during the day, it only takes a few minutes to say a prayer and gain my footing. this is me today better stronger and open to the new world that faces me. thank you so much to the people who dedicate themselves to caring for people like me.

This center is a residential drug and alcohol rehab offering 12 step recovery, smart recovery and dual diagnosis. They have a little something for everyone that comes for treatment. They have a good understanding that we are all different and have different needs that we need to work on and they take a great deal of pride in knowing that we all need help in different ways. This is by no means a state funded center and the level of service reflects i the care and attentiveness that you receive while you are here. We are able to participate in the areas of treatment that reflect what we are interested in and we are able to tailor the program how we see fit. I was greeted in the hallways when a staff member saw me and that meant a lot to me as I did not feel as though I was just a number and being taken care of like a revolving door to just get in and out. I really enjoyed the food and the classes I took and I felt like I gained a lot of insight into my addiction and clarity as to why I was using and how to move on from my past issues and overcome things that i thought I was never going to overcome in my life. I am clean and sober today and it is because of this center that I can say that today.

My mom found Choices Recovery for me this last time I relapsed. I’ve been using pain pills for the last 5 years and while I’ve tried plenty of times to stop, getting completely off them and staying off them seemed an impossible task. I’ve been to 2 other rehabs and tried countless times to quit by myself but I’ve never managed to stay clean for month than a month or two. It sucks, I never wanted to be this way and not being in control of my body and my life was depressing to say the least. Choices was different for me. Mostly, it was the staff that made such a difference for me. They’re amazing people, dedicated to helping others. I felt comfortable with the staff there. They made me feel like getting sober was something I could do and that I could stay that way when I left and when home. For the first time I felt like there were people who I could talk to about my issues. Talking to them wasn’t awkward or weird. They understood me and what I was going through and were always there for me when I needed it. Having a place where I felt safe and comfortable with people who actually understood me made such a difference. The other clients who were at Choices with me all seemed to feel the same way. Most of us were there because we wanted to get better. There wasn’t anyone there, at least when I was, who was court ordered to be there or only there because their parents made them go. Which made it so that all of us going through our programs were supportive of the others. I made some great friends there and I’m still in touch with all of them. Since coming home we’ve helped each other stay on track and positive. Which helped a lot since I didn’t have many friends from before I started using and I certainly couldn’t hang out with anyone I had gotten high with. I went to Choices 7 months ago. I’ve been back home for 5 months now and I’m surprised sometimes how well I’ve been doing. My relationship with my mom has improved. She’s starting to truly trust me again and it’s pretty awesome to be able to go out to lunch with her and know that she’s not wondering if I’m high or not. I started a new job soon after getting home and it’s also been going good. I’ve not missed a day of work since starting and last week I got a raise and a promotion. I can’t begin to tell you how amazing that is for me. I went from not being able to hold a job to having one that I like and that I’ve done well at. For the last 5 years my life has been a disaster. I just kept messing it up over and over again and it seemed like every time I tried to get better it only got worse. I have a good life again and I’m working on making it even better. I’m so happy that I went to Choices. I know that I wouldn’t have made it as far as I’ve come without the place.

I am a former graduate from Choices Recovery 1 year ago. I never thanked all of you enough for helping me be the woman I was meant to be. They helped sign me up for some community college classes so when I graduated I was able to keep busy with working on school. My case manager encouraged me to do everything and anything. I did holistic and music therapy and those were pretty cool. I didnt get into trouble the entire time I was there and we got to take weekly trips if you didnt do anything wrong you made the Stellar Trip. Weve went to the movies, bowling, dinner, ect. Well worth the good behavior. Things like that show me that they actually do care. Highly Recommend!!!

I cannot tell you how much better my life has become since going to Choices. Doing the program has changed so much for me. Since I started using I’ve wanted to get sober but nothing I did, no programs I went to seemed to help me with that. Instead, I’d just stay clean for the time I was in whichever rehab I was in at the time and relapse almost as soon as I left. It was hard on everyone, most especially my parents. While I was going through my program at Choices I learned how to better communicate with my parents. How to handle disagreements and how to not let those disagreements give me an excuse to use. The staff working at Choices are great. All of them are so nice and always willing to help. You can tell when you work with them how much they care about each client that comes in. I went to Choices 4 months ago and graduated from the program 3 months ago. Since being home, I’ve done really well. My relationship with my parents is better than ever. I’m so much happier than I’ve ever been. I love that I’m clean and sober and can actually get back to living my life.

This place saved my life. The staff is great and compassionate. They helped me every step of the way. Many activities to keep the clients busy during the program. Clean facility and the food is great.

They are under staffed. Most haven’t been sober 4 months. The clients were cooking because the staff quit. Made everything harder than needed. Showers were cold. Bunks were to small. Don’t do it.

I would have to say that, though I was skeptical at first about the efficacy of addiction treatment in general, when all was said and done I was very impressed with the treatment services that my son received at Choices Recovery. The reason why I was skeptical to begin with was because we had been having very bad luck with finding affective treatment for him in general. My son had gone to multiple different treatment centers in Michigan and Indiana and Ohio over the last eight years of him struggling with opiate addiction. Simply nothing seemed to work for him and that was just the brutal truth of the matter.So, as you can probably imagine, when we stumbled across Choices Recovery I wasnt exactly a very optimistic individual. It was actually my spouse who found them, and my spouse was the one who did most of the talking with them to begin with. However, the change in my son from before he went to Choices Recovery to what he was like after graduating the program and since then has been truly phenomenal. Its like hes a completely different person now. This is awesome too, because he was going down a very bad path and Im not sure if he would still be with us today if it had not been for his trip to Choices Recovery.I did not go to this treatment center myself so I can only talk about them from the perspective of seeing the changes that they caused in my son. That is the best perspective I can get on this treatment center. Even though he had been to serval treatment centers before, my son was at his worst ever point of addiction right before going to Choices so you can get a pretty clear idea of just how tough his addiction was when we sent him to Choices Recovery. He graduated the Choices Recovery program about two months ago and I havent seen him like this since before he started doing drugs. Its like hes a completely different person now.What is truly exhilarating is that my son is completely stable and well grounded in his recovery. Other treatment centers only gave him a few weeks of sobriety before he would relapse again. But it has now been almost 3 months since he graduated and he hasn’t slipped up and doesnt look like hes going to.From what my son said, here are the key points about Choices Recovery that make this treatment center so great:First of all, the staff at this rehabilitation program or something else entirely. They are very dedicated to helping people, and their insistence upon getting people free from addiction is truly impressive. Furthermore, the staff at this treatment center seem totally focused on helping the individual, and not simply on working a job.Secondly, what I think really made a difference for my son is that the staff at Choices Recovery let him stay there as long as he needed to to get fully clean from his addiction. This was very much unlike most treatment centers. The rehabs he had gone to in the past it only let him stay for 28 days. This center let him stay for almost 2 months. That extra time made all the difference for him.Another great thing about Choices Recovery is that this program is specifically set up to offer multiple different approaches through addiction treatment. In this way, theyre able to give everyone who goes to them seeking help for an addiction a slightly different path and a slightly different recovery. This is called a multi modality treatment approach. In this way, people are able to create and maintain a full recovery because theyre able to work on a program that is specifically helpful for them and for them alone.My hat is off to Choices Recovery. I truly believe that this treatment center saved my son’s life. I do not think that he would be here with us today considering the direction that he was going in. Choices Recovery works, with how long they let him stay, and with how well put together their program is, I would easily say that this is the best treatment center he has ever been to. If you are seeking help for yourself or a loved one struck with an addiction, I would definitely recommend Choices Recovery!

I attempted treatment times before this and it worked for a while. it was always temporary though its like it called me back in to the darkness. after being sober a few months one time I did well for a while but then I got bored and went to a bar and I actually met people from my home town then the insanity began again—drinking, drugs and more. I swore to myself that I would never stick a needle in my arm but I did speed, cocaine, and almost heroin. I stayed up for days doing speed and could not come down. it was ridiculous the things i was doing to my body. i was unhappy depressed and very thin and frail. during my drug use i went from weighing 267 to 121 it was scary really my family did not even recognize me. it was not until i ended up in a strangers home one day naked and went to leave and he paid me that i realized just how messed up my life was. i was so ashamed. i went on a binge that week and at the end i said that is it for me i will not die this way. i called choices recovery and they got me in the next day. it was so simple they took care of everything for me. during my stay i had time to get in touch with the real reasons i had these issues and the person i wanted to become. i got my butt in the gym and i started gaining my weight back by the time i left i think i weighed 147 and i looked so good. i am proud of the woman i am today i am in school and i am becoming some one and it is all thanks to choices i would recommend this place to every one.

I sent my daughter to this program about 9 months ago because she was addicted no pain pills and patches. we first noticed the problem her senior year of high school her grades started failing she dropped out of sports and eventually it was physically evident that her health was failing. she admitted she was abusing pills. we tried to get her to get help several times but she did not see that she had a problem so she kept doing what she was doing. it was not until she was 24 that she really hit bottom.she got pregnant and when she had the baby she was physically deformed and her brain had npt developed like it should have due to her drug use. the baby was given very slim chance to live. she stayed with my grand daughter for three weeks in the hospital until she passed away and she took that very hard. she dissapeared for a week and did nothing but use to forget the pain and i guess deal how she needed to but when enough was enough she came to me and told me she was ready and we got her into this program here.i drove her in and i left her there with tears in her eyes i will never forget that. it did not take her long to realize she was worth more than what she was doing to her self. this program worked wonders for her she almost looked like a totally different person coming out of there that was a proud day for all of us we had the whole family there to support her. coming here saved my babies life and i am forever in debt to them for all they have done. she is now going to college and she is doing amazing for herself i could not be more proud. i do not have to worry waiting by the phone any ,more to get that call no mother wants to get like before. i am happy that she is happy and we made a really good decision choosing this place. they brought her out of a dark place and gave her her life and freedom back. i love to see her smile these days and be joyful. the staff at this rehab were kind to her and helped her out of a bad time in her life she overcame all odds that were against her and she now has hope for the future.

Was highly concerned about well being of my loved one while they were there, had a lot of difficulty getting them home from staff, wanted them to move to Michigan and disconnect from their mother, grandparents and myself. I do not recommend anyone go here, I recommend finding a 12-Step group nearby and asking other peers where they would suggest from there. Would have much rather paid for the medical detox offered by our local hospital and 12 step, cheaper and safer.

My defining moment of change happened after I just got tired of living the life that I was living. I got tired of being in the relationship that I was in. I got tired of moving from home to home and living on the streets.This is actually my second time getting clean. I did everything wrong the first time. This time, I used everything that I learned the first time around. I now do what I need to do. I just got so tired of living a drug life.My first time in rehab was back in 2008 and I’m actually one of those people who loved rehab. I knew that if I ever wanted to try and get clean again, I would go back to this place. Once I finally decided that I was just so tired of it, I knew exactly what to do. I went right back to it. I pretty much just woke up one morning and said, “I’m done with this and I want to go back to rehab. and i did that day i made the call and they came and got me and everything.this time i listened i applied every thing i was learning there to my recovery and i took it more serious this time. i went to groups i saw a counselor i participated in every thing the program had to offer. they taught me how to cope with life out side of rehab so i did not go back to that life and i believe that is why i am successful today.”My life is so much different now. I have my family back in my life. I have my kids back in my life and a lot of good things have been happening in every part of my life. I can hold a job down now. I have great friends in recovery, I don’t have to worry about anybody using me for anything. I love my life now that I’m clean. i have been clean since and i am, not looking back i am truly moving on to better things and i am very proud of myself and i am so thankful for these guys they saved my life and saved me from myself.

I am glad that a close friend of mine choose Choices recovery to seek help for his alcohol addiction. After reading a few stories & testimonials on the rehab detox website, he was filled with hope and for the first time felt that he could finally break free from the mental captivity that addiction had him bound to. I asked him about this experience and he explained to me that after calling one of the specialists, they were able to help him with all the logistics and in no time he was at the rehab center in the detox program. They arranged everything with his insurance, he literally all he had to do was to concentrate on his program towards sobriety. He stayed about a months or so, and now I see such a huge change in him. He is full of joy and has so many plans for his life. He is doing so much better too at his career. Everyone was pleasantly surprised that in a bit more than a months someone can change so much. Well done to choices recovery, we are all great full to have him back in shape!

Worst experience. Lied about insurance coverage to me, unprofessional, dirty, and code violations galore. No cooks, no hot water, They only care about dollars. I left ASAP and went to the bluffs in Ohio and couldn’t have been more thankful to be out of that joke of a place. I am fighting w them and my insurance now to remove a 3000 balance bc they lie to patients.

If I could give a negative star, I would.First of all, I was lied to since the night I arrived. I was told by Cameron that my out of pocket would be nothing. Turns out they called my mother for 3k that same week. I was barely intoxicated when I came in but they kept me in detox for 12 days, collecting their 2k a day. I met with my counselor for 15-20 min a week. My case manager taught a great class but was horrible as a manager. The place is terribly dirty. They found out we were getting a health inspection so they had us do extra cleaning one night. I found 10 dead bugs under my bed. And it was my responsibility to clean that up. Also, I left a coffee mug in my room one morning and was punished by the directors girlfriend to wash a wall...I am old enough to be her mom. Some of their teachers dont even have a year of sobriety.If you dont smoke, you wont fit in. If you are over 35 and appreciate being treated with some respect, you wont fit in. And most of the people writing these reviews are employees there...DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!!!

Choices Recovery gave me a balance that I never thought I would have.There staff gave me a comfort that a family would give to one leaving home for the first time..To truly understand my faults.I had to go through all the programing Choices Recovery had to offer.And I a better man then I was before.Thanks to Choices ..A better Father and a productive memeber in our society.thank you Bradon and staff..

Amazing staff. Kind, caring, and deligent. They care about the clients more than anything. Want too see people succeed

This center offered a results based treatment program. Meaning not all circumstances for individuals attending needed the same care and time to complete so it was completely structured around the individual themselves and their needs. The program was well maintained and the staff was knowledgeable in all areas of expertise. I began understanding things about myself once being attentive in my groups and really seeing the difference that insight can mean to my addiction. I was gaining control over my life and taking accountability for my actions due to the fact that I was owing up to my faults and shortcomings in life. Knowing how to handle certain situations without the use of drugs of alcohol was what I needed because time after time again, I felt into a bad way not knowing how to deal with it other than using so that way I did not have to deal with it at all. The length of time I was here wa a bit longer than others I have been to but that is because they really worked with me to endure that I was getting to all of my issues before they turned me away and let me graduate to be left on my own devices. I give this center 5 stars because it completely turned my life around and helped me to understand that I was needing more than I was getting at other centers and helped me to see my full potential.

I have had to deal with way too much in my life I thought until I had to finally make myself deal with my problem that made me have to go into Choices. This probably was the hardest choice I ever had to make and it is not the worst. It is the best. I am so glad that I got to go and deal with my problem because it was getting worse and I was ashamed of what I had become. I needed to really get down to what I was doing wrong and fix it. I needed help and this group of people gave it to me. They gave me the help and hope that I needed because it has been way too long for me to get my life on track. They have taught me how to deal with the issues that I had and how to confront them. That I am worth it. It was hard and it was completely worth it and I am so glad that these people came into my life. I am so thankful for each and every one of them. They never want a client to leave the program feeling that they are all alone in the world. To help us avoid feeling abandoned, aftercare specialists will work with you. I know I was scared of leaving but hey are there to help you when you are don for guidance and support. Just make sure you apply what you learned while you are there the abundance of skills and knowledge are useless without the ability to apply those attributes in daily life. You will learn to apply those skills by recognizing situations that might contribute to relapse, and effectively be avoiding these triggers. Make sure you stay connected and use what they offer you on the program,

Disorganized , I was a patient here and I had to take control of what I needed this place is insurance fraud , all that money that doesn’t benefit you. They lie there way into coming, they put your job on hold and tell you you completed the program but didn’t graduate the last minute ask if you want to stay another week andThey don’t give you back the release papers. Worst treatment facility there is I recommend any other one but this one they pay no attention to there clients your basically roaming around doing nothing all day because classes stop at 1:00 tell me how does that make sense?

My boyfriend is in recovery at this treatment center currently. His counselor and case manager are very unprofessional. He has not taken any sort of responsibility being there for five weeks. People get to see a counselor one time a week there. They spend about 4 hours a day learning (still unclear about what is done the rest of time). His counselor tells him his problems are not that significant. Very unpleasant experience. I feel like this treatment center needs to be investigated and shut down. Do NOT waste your time. Please, if you or someone needs help, do your research!

I brought my grandson to this facility about 6 months ago to get help for his pll addiction. he was pretty bad he was addicted to just about every pain pill ever made and did just about any thing to get them. he would steal all mine and i would have to go without he would steal money from me from his parents. he had to have them by any means necessary. we were pretty fed up after 2 years of constant lying and having things stolen that we decided to do an intervention. when we did he agreed to go into treatment after being quite resilient of course at first but he agreed. we were all happy that he made the right choice to go so that day i drove him here and i seen him off. i was not able to go visit him while he was there due to on going health issues but i did get to see him when he left the program here. he graduated the program and came home a whole different person. he looked really good he was healthy and most important he stuck with the program. we could not be more proud of him for fighting through his addiction to find recovery. i knew he had it in him and he has maintained his sobriety still today. these people here are miracle workers i do not know much about what you guys do here but i saw with my own two eyes that it works. i would recommend this rehab to anyone seeking help.

I came here to choices recovery to get help after being an alcoholic for the last 20 years. i got 2 duis already and i got in an accident about 7 months ago where i almost killed someone i could have caused some serious harm to myself or that person.it was that day i decided to go and get help. when i came here i was skeptical at first scared i did not know what to expect. they assured me they would help me every step of the way and they did. when was going through with drawl there was always someone they to comfort me to help me when i was getting sick. and after i started feeling a little better i got to enjoy some of the wonderful things tha facility had to offer. i pretty much stayed in the gym i worked out they helped me with my diet and every thing. i was pretty heavy when i went in and when i left i was 30 pounds lighter and it was a wonderful feeling. when i went home my family barely recognized me it was so cool. i also met a great support system of friends while i was there that i still communicate with today. without them i probably would not have been so strong. today i am mending broken relationships with my family and i am regaining my kids trust so i can see my grand kids more often then i could before.sobriety actually rocks way more than being dependent on any thing. if you are searching for a place to gain your life back i definitely recommend this place. i am the person i am today because of choices recovery and i would not have it any other way.

This is a little about my story. I am a severe alcoholic. One Friday night I was sitting on the couch in the misery of my addiction. With the self pity and shame of what had become my life, I decided to make the call. I found myself on a plane the following Tuesday and brought to Choices. I am leaving Choices tomorrow a stronger, sober women. During my stay, there were difficult moments, but it was worth working through, and if it wasnt for the staff and other clients (family), I couldnt have done it! Choices offers a great program for people like me, if you are reading this, people like us. If you find yourself powerless to your addiction, dont wait, get the help you need. I know for me, it is life or death, family or no family. God bless you and your recovery. Thank you to the staff for your patience and understanding! Laura C.

I recommend this center. My aunt has been an alcoholic since I can remember, and it was a very heavy situation for our entire family. She has made so many problems in our lives, when we tried to help her and others tried too, but to not much result. We always told her that this is gonna end really bad, well it kinda did, she ended up in the hospital, and they told her that is she doesnt stop drinking. She has a hearth attack, and honestly I though that was it, she is gonna go. But she got out of it pretty well, so at the hospital she was forced to not drink, so we said that when the doctor give us okay, she goes straight to rehab, and we give her no choices. At this point she did realize that it is a very bad place where she is at, and she knew that she was too young to die, not yet. So she said okay, she is gonna go to rehab, hence we sent her to choices. It was a great choice cause first of all they kept her as much as they needed, made sure she was ready to go, even though it is always hard to continue after the rehab, but they did not have this 30 day policy. It might seem a lot already but it is not, cause for someone who has been an alcoholic for most of her life, 30 days is nothing and not enough, so she stayed close to two months, and she said she was very happy that they kept her longer, cause if she would have had returned sooner probably she would have relapsed very quickly. Than she said that the case managers were really well trained and they did help her tons. The twelve step program was amazing, and she had loads of changes in her attitude towards life. She said that now shes is very serious about this She is going to continue to go to aa meetings, she has gone every week since she is back home. She has a really amazing sponsor who is looking out for her a lot. So she got her life together and she seems much more focused than before and finally there is no drama, I mean not as much drama in my family than before. After I know that it is still hard for her, cause going to a rehab is one thing, but when people kinda see alcohol everywhere, literally, and there is a daily temptation, it is very hard. They do get you through the hardest part, but they show you the toad, after is her decision to walk on it.

My life today is a happy one, I have two successful businesses that were started in sobriety, I still have the same amazing sponsor, and I have many sponsees that I get to watch give the gift away to their sponsees. I still have three commitments at my meetings and try to be of service anytime I am asked. It’s a chain of giving that just keeps going. I wish anybody reading this the same happiness.Getting clean and sober wasn’t easy. I had to give up my ego and all my control issues. However, I have never been happier than I am today. The one thought I would leave with any new person reading this would be this: Give it 90 days and 90 meetings. If your life isn’t better, your disease is always waiting for you, doing push-ups and becoming stronger. You can face the fear, work through it and have a better life or you can go back to the misery we all know is waiting for us. my happy began when i went ro treatment. i found this wonderful rehab and i turned my life around. i saved from the destructive path i was going down that probably would have led me only to my death. i focus on my fitness and well being while in treatment and that has made me a better person today. i am so thankful that i got this opportunity because i know for some it will be too late and i got lucky i guess. i do know help is really right around the corner and all you have to do is call. they are not gonna come get you your going to have to be brave and face the music. we are addicts but we can change and we can live sober lives if we just try.i hope any one reading this understands that they are not alone and they can achieve sobriety just like me. you are more important than you know reach out your hand and tale your life back.

This agency is owned by US addictions who uses false and deceptive advertising practices. They have copied the SAMSHA treatment finder website and direct all traffic to their call centers. Wonder why they cannot not attract clients through upfront advertising?

Everyone is very out going an makes you feel at home chef Jason is awesome its like eating a five star restaurant.

I have been sober from this treatment center for about four months now, and I honestly believe that it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I have been able to hold down a job since the time I have left treatment. I Went into the facility as an alcoholic and I came out a survivor. I was unaware as to how bad my addiction had gotten due to the fact of being so caught up in it that I was not able to see how bad it had gotten. The staff was able to help me pin point when and why my addiction had begun and I was able to see things in a new light. Realizing the things in my life from when I was younger and contributing it to the use of my addiction was very beneficial. I had to write a lot of wrongs over the course of the last few years to some of the people who I love the most. One of the big things I learned in treatment was coming to terms with the wrong doings that you have brought on in your life. It was a very emotional and difficult process for me to sit down with my loved ones and admit to all of the things I had done and look them in the eyes. As hard as it wa for me to do that it was like a big weight was lifted off of my shoulders. Choices Recovery has been a godsend for me and I hope that they continue to help more people the way that they have all helped me.

Dont believe them when they tell you your bill will be 100% paid for! And the accommodations are not true neither! Dont get one on one counselling for weeks!

Words cant really describe how I feel about Choices Recovery because quite frankly they saved my life. I have been battling alcoholism and addiction for the past 14 years and have completed 5 different rehab programs with little success. I was skeptical at first but then I took a step back and stopped thinking (my thinking got me in here) and started listening. When I did this I realized I had missed something previously and really started to see how knowledgeable and compassionate the staff really was. Thru their Smart Recovery course I uncovered the root cause of my addiction and with their guidance began to confront it and learn new tools and behaviors to pull me out of the past and better equip me for the future. I came in completely lost and hopeless and they helped me find myself giving me a peace of mind that I had been searching for. As far as the living situation the homestyle meals, comfy leather couches and ridiculously huge LED TVs would have made it impossible to be active but luckily theyve got a great gym staffed with personal trainers that are out of this world. Honestly the people here make it a home and become family. I never thought I would love it but I was definitely sad to go. If your serious about a better life this is the place to go.

I went there a few years ago. After coming in clean they kept me in detox for almost 10 days. On the 9th day the doctor wanted me to start suboxone. Which made no sense to me considering I was clean already...the facility otherwise wasnt that bad, but when I left I had no money or phone and they were aware. They got me a ticket for a bus in Chicago. Dropped me off on the south side of Chicago with no money and no phone then come to find out they didnt give me an actual ticket when they dropped me off. I had to beg someone to let me use their phone to call my boyfriend so he could buy me a new ticket. Mind you the bus station on south side isnt more than a bus stop. So I had many issues with the ticket lady to get on the bus because I had no ticket and she had to be called by another bus company and told to let me on. The girl who helped me only did because she said it was a bad area to be in at night with a suitcase and no phone or money.3 people I know we went there with me also were snuck 9ut at night and getting drunk with workers.most of which would also hit on the females regularly.. All 3 friends there OD after getting released..Also being next to a liquor store isnt very easy for people struggling with addiction.Should have wrote this sooner but it took me this many years to find the help I needed to be clean.I did enjoy the communications class though.

I just completed my almost 2 months in patient treatment at choices recovery. This was my first time entering any treatment or recovery center for my Alcohol addiction. This center gave me the tools to move forward in my recovery. At times I felt that they were tough on some of their policies in the beginning, as the days progressed I came to believe to stop being so resistant and let them do their jobs. I realized that those policies were actually there to help us progress faster with oir recovery, I am great full that their experience and judgement was only for my own good teaching me how to deal with being sober. At the same time I made lifelong friends and and as I reflect back, they made many moments fun. I have never laughed as much as I have while I was here, or learned about myself and because of that I have a renewed belief that there is a higher power and that is a great feeling. I got so much out of their program, I view so many things differently. I also have clarity that I never had before. The staff including the medical team showed that they cared about my recovery and about my health, they were all knowledgeable about addiction, and helped me through with their expertise when I needed it. Today I am grateful that I am here and stayed in the program and participated in everything they had to offer including the art course that I enjoyed so much. Soon I will be 100 days sober, and I hope that very soon I will be able to help an other recovering alcoholic. I would recommend choices recovery to anyone who is looking for a place for themselves or their family, to fight their addiction.

Very respectful company

I went to Choices Recovery last October and I am happy to say the experience saved my life. I will admit when I first went I didn’t want to be there at all. I was mad that I even had to go. I was faceing jail time and they actually got me in so that I could avoid jail and just complete a treatment program. I have beento jail so many times for possession and I know that I needed rehab and not jail it’s just hard to want to go. I think if I didn’t have to go to jail that I would not have even went. I don’t thnk that Choiices is the most beautiful rehab I could hve gone to but it was really comfortable and clean. The give you a bunch of different treatment options. And you can pick which one you want. I think people think rehab is just like going to NA meetings all day and it’s not. They help you with Life skills, you get cousneling, and they really try and get to the reason that you even use in the first place. I didn’t know anyone obviously and so when you are around people going through what you are going through then it just makes it that much easier to relate. I met people who wanted to get clean instead of the people I am usually around. My parents noticed the change when I got home becuaswe basically the only time I was ever clean was when I got out of jail. I am so grateful they were able to get me in Choices. If you are looking for a help and you want to get it go to rehab! Even if it isn’t choices go somewhere where they can help you find out what makes you suse in the first place take the first step. Rehab had changed everything for me.

Before I got sober, I was addicted to opiates for ten years. It completely controlled every aspect of my life. I had no relationships, money or assets. From the minute I woke up each day, all of my desire and energy went towards feeding my addiction. My whole life was upside down for such a long time that I forgot what normal really was and what it was like to have relationships with others or how to get from point A to point B because I had sold my care for drugs. That was my whole life was. Anyone that came into my life would not last long because of the chaos and hell that surrounded me. I was completely numb to everything because of the bad things that were created by long term use and continuing to neglect my health and the legal problems that I created the longer I used. Eventually it would all come crashing down.Any length of sobriety I had within those ten years would be because I was confined to a program and once I came out I would just make the same mistakes again.It wasn’t until I made the initiative and real decision to set myself away and make the commitment to get sober and making sacrifices of not being with my girlfriend or things I was comfortable with. During those three months my value system changed. i got myself into a treatment program and i worked my butt off getting clean every single day. All of sudden I started caring about things differently. I started putting others like my family and my girlfriend before my own selfish desires. After that my life started to turn around. The things that came back to me were so much different than what they were before.i had a whole new outlook after coming to treatment its like seeing the world for the first time again. it was beautiful honestly. i had my moments i felt like throwing in the towel but honestly these guys here they will not let you. they gave me encouragement every single day to stay clean and fight the fight. i could not let my addiction take over my life any more and i did not want that label for myself.after leaving and graduating from the program here i Now I have a steady income, my relationships are healthy, and life is good. It is not way up one day and way down the next. Life is just steady. That is the best place that I can be. If something bad or unexpected does happen, today I am prepared for it. i take every challenge for what it is and take care of it the way i need to. i am much more matured now and i really feel accomplished in my life. Stability gives me the option in life to care about what really matters. For me, my value system changed the day I went into recovery and made the sacrifice to get it right. i am forever thankful for the team here who made it all possible for me i could not have done any of this alone. they were truly my backbone through every thing and they never let me fall. My goal is to become a Peer Support specialist. Learn how to help others and deliver the message of recovery. I am also furthering my own education in graphic design currently on scholarship that I would not have been able to secure without the blessings of recovery.so thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this life possible for me i hope someone out there finds this message inspirational and just maybe they can save your life as well take care of yourself and stay blessed.

This place is a joke..After they promised me a good detox bought my flight from Cali.. I get there and the doctor kicked me out he didnt know what to do with me he said and the nurses were talking about me so harsh behind the closed door they didnt know I was standing there they drop me off at the shelter and thank god I had a family to buy me a flight home worst experience I have ever been thru they have 5 other rehabs that are just the same..do not go!!

What an amazing program!
