1. What is your program like? Our rehabilitation program consists of a full day of classes/groups to help the patient understand the addictive process and provide education/tools to overcome that addiction or mental illness complicated by addiction. Our inpatient treatment program generally lasts between 14 and 28 days, depending on the specific needs and progress of the patient. At discharge, patients are referred for continuing treatment through their local mental health centers, self help groups, or other outpatient resources. 2. How do I (or a family member) obtain admittance to your rehabilitation program/facility? Before being admitted to JFK ADATC a client must be evaluated and then referred by their local mental health center/community. Please contact your community program (i.e., Blue Ridge; Mecklenburg; Foothills; Piedmont) for an assessment. If the community determines that a client could benefit from inpatient treatment for addiction or mental illness complicated by addiction that community program will make the arrangements with JFK. Treatment is available to any resident of the 37 western counties of North Carolina. For a list of the counties that we serve, click here. For a list of local mental health centers, click here.
