Onsite Medical and Dental Services

One of the program’s defining features is its onsite licensed primary medical and dental clinics, allowing men to address routine healthcare needs without leaving treatment. Medical staff provide physical health checkups, dental care, and medications for addiction treatment (MAT). Men also engage in regular counseling sessions — both individual and group — alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, trauma-specific therapy, and anger management.

Education, Employment, and Housing Coordination

During treatment, men have the option to pursue Adult Basic Education or prepare for High School Equivalency exams. Job training and employment assistance help clients practice interviewing, identify strengths, and explore vocational pathways. Staff also support men in locating safe housing — whether community residences, independent apartments, or skilled nursing facilities for those with medical needs. Discharge planning begins early, helping clients build a foundation for lasting stability in areas like work, education, and income.

Wellness, Fitness, and Creative Arts

Wellness is woven into everyday life through fitness and nutrition programming. Men can use a gym, join organized activities such as basketball, yoga, Pilates, or softball, and participate in the Run for Your Life program — regular walks and runs in Central Park that encourage routine, endurance, and stress relief. Onsite nutrition classes and healthy meals support physical rebuilding after periods of substance use. An Expressive Arts Studio gives men a creative outlet and opportunities to build connections.

Support for Life After Treatment

Near the end of a client’s stay, staff help map out next steps in their recovery. Men receive guidance on linking to outpatient counseling, peer support networks, and community-based services that can offer stability during the transition home. This approach reduces the pressure of navigating post-treatment decisions alone and helps clients maintain routines, structure, and support systems that make long-term recovery more attainable.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
