Frequently Asked Questions

Program & Treatment

Why choose us? What makes it different than other addiction treatment centers?

Brookdale stands out due to its unique resort-like campus in the Poconos, providing a tranquil environment for healing. Our "Patient First" approach, experienced staff, and innovative aftercare program, Discovery 365™, create a comprehensive support system. We also offer specialized programs for executives, veterans, and first responders.

What substance use disorder treatment programs do you offer?

We offer a focused continuum of care that includes Medical Detox and Residential Treatment for drug and alcohol addiction. We also have a premium Signature Program and specialized tracks for Veterans and First Responders.

How do you treat dual diagnosis / co-occurring disorders?

We treat dual diagnosis with an integrated approach. Our on-staff psychiatrist and clinical team work together to address both the substance use disorder and any co-occurring mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression, simultaneously.

What types of therapies are used?

Our program is built on evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), individual counseling, and daily group therapy sessions.

Does this program use the 12-Steps?

Yes, 12-Step facilitation is a core part of our program. We also offer alternative peer support groups, such as SMART Recovery and Dharma, to provide clients with a variety of pathways to recovery.

Is the program faith-based?

No, our program is clinically focused and not based in any specific faith, making it welcoming to individuals from all spiritual backgrounds and belief systems.

How long has this facility been open?

Brookdale Premier Addiction Recovery was founded and began operations in 2019.

What is the difference between inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment?

The main difference between inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment lies in where and how a person receives care. Inpatient treatment (like Brookdale Recovery) means you live full-time at the facility for a set period — usually 30, 60, or 90 days. It provides a highly structured environment, 24/7 medical supervision, and daily therapy sessions. The focus is on total immersion in recovery, away from triggers, stress, and access to substances. Patients receive medical detox if needed, individual and group therapy, and holistic or wellness activities (like yoga or fitness). It’s best for people with moderate to severe addiction, co-occurring mental health issues, or unstable living environments. Outpatient treatment, on the other hand, allows you to live at home while attending scheduled therapy sessions at a clinic or center — anywhere from a few hours a week to daily programs. It offers more flexibility for work, school, or family responsibilities, but also requires stronger self-discipline since you remain in your regular environment. Outpatient programs range from standard outpatient (a few hours weekly) to intensive outpatient (IOP) or partial hospitalization (PHP), which provide more structured daily care without overnight stays. In short: inpatient = immersive, 24/7 care in a controlled setting; outpatient = flexible treatment while living at home.

Cost & Admission

What will my costs be for treatment?

Costs vary based on insurance coverage and program choice. The estimated self-pay rate for our 30-day detox and residential program is $36,000. The Signature Executive Program has a self-pay rate of $60,000 per month. We recommend calling for a personalized benefits check.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes, we are in-network with Aetna, Geisinger, Highmark BCBS, and Cigna. We also work with many other PPO/POS plans on an out-of-network basis. We do not accept Medicaid.

Do you provide detoxification services?

Yes, we provide 24/7 medically supervised detoxification for drugs and alcohol as the first step in our treatment continuum.

Is Suboxone (MAT) permitted?

Yes, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), including Suboxone, is supported and can be incorporated into a client's treatment plan when medically appropriate.

Daily Life, Rules & Family

How long will I be there?

Our standard residential program has a typical length of stay of 30 days. The exact duration will be based on individual clinical needs and progress.

What is the living situation like? Can I get my own room?

Clients live in comfortable, cabin-style housing. In our standard program, rooms and bathrooms are shared with roommates. A private suite with a private bathroom is a feature of our premium Signature Executive Program, available for an additional self-pay cost.

Is this a closed/locked facility?

Our campus is not locked, but it is a closed campus. Clients are free to walk around and enjoy the 100-acre property but are not permitted to leave the grounds. Leaving the property will result in an administrative discharge.

Can I use my phone/laptop? Is smoking allowed?

Yes, smoking and vaping are permitted in designated outdoor areas. In the standard program, personal electronics like phones and laptops are not allowed. After a 5-day blackout period, clients can make three 15-minute calls per week on a landline. Full electronics access with WiFi is available in our Signature Executive Program.

What should I bring? What should I leave at home?

Bring: About a week's worth of casual, modest clothing, pajamas, swimwear, and sneakers. Also pack new/unopened alcohol-free toiletries, your ID and insurance cards, and any prescribed medications in their original bottles.
Leave at home: Valuables, weapons, non-prescribed medications, revealing clothing, outside cigarettes/vapes (must be new), and any products containing alcohol.

What is the layout of the campus?

Our facility is a former resort in the Poconos, set on a 100-acre property with a private lake. It includes a main building for clinical services and dining, a separate fitness center with an indoor pool, and modern cabins that serve as client residences.

Who provides care here? Are there psychiatrists on staff?

Care is provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and clinical professionals. This includes a Medical Director, an on-staff psychiatrist, registered nurses, licensed therapists and counselors, and behavioral health technicians.

Who will be in treatment with me?

Our program is for co-ed adults (18+) who typically have private insurance. With a capacity of 102 beds, you will be part of a diverse community of peers from various backgrounds, all committed to recovery. Housing is gender-specific.

What is the family involvement and visitation policy?

We offer a dedicated Family Program Day on a Saturday once during each client's stay. This immersive day is designed to educate families and begin the healing process. Regular weekend visitations are not part of the program.

What kind of aftercare and follow-up support is available?

While we do not offer outpatient programs, we provide robust discharge planning to connect clients with external providers. Our unique aftercare includes Discovery 365™, a "virtual safety net" that provides support, resources, and community connection for a full year after leaving our care.
