Drug Rehab Centers in Inglewood, California

It wasn't easy, but it was an amazing experience! I loved it! The 30 days of participation shed light with evidence on what was truly going on in my head. Once I knew why I was having trouble with functioning in society for a few years, then I was able to cope and deal with those feelings. Good decisions are easier, now.

Great respect for staff and Dr.'s.

Struggling with Mental Health or Substance Abuse issues along with fears of a virus can make the goal of overcoming seemingly impossible. I was fortunate enough to have an option at Excelsior House to build my new life. The staff faces many challenges between shift changes, varying degrees of hostility, and constant changes with health care policy ESPECIALLY NOW. But they provide a safe and very well managed program where I was able to focus on recovering and healing many deep and long standing issues in my life. The Group Sessions were very well managed and I enjoyed the plentiful resources given to those who needed additional services, such as housing, or employment, or medical services. The Staff and Administration was wonderful, I really miss some of them. Certainly there were challenges but every day we were fed, kept safe, given medications. The rooms are shared by two people and they're required to be kept clean with daily chores. The rehabilitation through structured chores pairs patients up together in teams of 2 or 3 people and each day they rotate. I certainly enjoyed cooking and found that to be my favorite. When it came to confronting personal issues, each day we were having 2 group sessions, and at least an hour and a half to research and examine what our "new lives" would be like. There would seem to be a lot of repetition but that is necessary. I felt safe and comfortable even with challenges I had with certain staff members as they were very infrequent and mostly resolved. I'm on day 35 of my new life and I couldn't have done it without being there. I miss everyone, I miss the once a day walks the staff would supervise, and working together to play games in the evening. They have 2 computers and a very nice living room to use, I would on occasion join to watch movies lol! the restrictions on moving around and going out were very challenging for me, but they were necessary. In all I have a very favorable scenario and I'll miss Courtney, Matt, Vanessa, Toya, Trebin, Shelly, and Arianna and although I may have forgotten names, there are a couple of special ladies that provided transportation for me to handle personal things that required supervision and I hope they know they're missed too!
