Should a Drug Rehab Facility Be Accredited?

Table of Contents

Drug rehab facility options can be numerous and sometimes the process for selecting the right center can be intimidating. Seeking an accredited drug rehab facility can narrow down your options and greatly improve your odds of receiving the highest quality standards of care. These facilities go above and beyond, following the various state and federal regulations governing substance abuse and addiction rehabilitation.

Selecting an Accredited Drug Rehab Facility

Be sure to choose an accredited drug rehab facility for treatment. These facilities are proven to follow significant regulations so you can be sure you are receiving quality care. Not every facility that has been accredited can be treated as equal, but you should be able to trust that at least specific minimum criteria have been met. There are different types of accreditation’s so it’s important to research the significance of one over the other before making a decision.

Though accreditation is a serious factor to take in consideration, don’t let it be the only parameter for selecting a drug rehab facility. You may also want to take into consideration things such as reputation, feedback, the professionalism and knowledge of the staff, the cleanliness and comfort of the facility, services offered and more. Your rehabilitation from substance abuse and addiction should be your number one priority and the facility you choose for care should thus be the best you can find.

Destination Hope is a Joint Commission accredited drug rehab facility and it is licensed by the state of Florida. The Joint Commission Accreditation is a national accreditation and it shows that the drug rehab facility was reviewed independently and in an unbiased manner and proved to be a facility of the highest standards of quality.

The Benefits of Attending an Accredited Drug Rehab Facility

  • You know that the drug rehab facility offers at least the minimum of high standards of care including the use of tried-and-true treatment methods such as psychotherapy.
  • Accreditation agencies such as The Joint Commission and the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) have stricter and higher accreditation standards than state licensing requirements so you can be sure you are getting truly high-quality care.
  • An accredited drug rehab facility must maintain these high standards of care in order to keep their accreditations for their future and regular assessments.
  • An accredited drug rehab facility has been assessed for treatment methods, program offerings, the results of their treatment programs and more.
