When we drove our daughter to Par , we finally had peace in our hearts feeling we made the right decision , starting off at Par in North Fort Myers who just keeps upping the dose while there using , charging etc..the counselor I spoke with had no idea of the history of our daughter , or her trauma or current situation , I've been a social worker/ director for D/A and MH intensive 25 years plus up north , finally we get the referral for her to go , ( Covid has made it hard to run facilities as they normally would) the whole point of going there was to get clean off of everything, intensive therapy for trauma , how to stay clean outside a rehab walls , help cleaning up messes they may have made along the way , a family session , or how about a counselor returning a call after about 5 messages left on voice mail ??? CM 101 , surround your clients with as much services as you can , even free Counseling through other agencies.. we should of been part of her care plan , knowing her diagnosis, she was treated for other stuff , came home still on methadone , bloated horribly , retaining water , breathing heavy while sleeping and on 3 different meds for same thing and knows how to pot plants , clean .. where's her NA book ?? Talk to the families so you can get a better idea of the person your taking care off , not every client has a broken family and some know real recovery ..money making business same as back in the day ! And same now ...you can't always blame the client , when your broken and seeking help ..make sure you talk to someone before going here..if your a opiate abuser please there are other ways then methadone ..
