Please send katie my way

Great people!

I went to Washburn house from December 27-January 7 to their detox program. I was 100 percent going to do their CSS but unfortunately there were not enough beds for women at that time. So I was sent to another CSS. My 12 days at Washburn completely transformed my life. This was my first time ever being in rehab before so I was beyond terrified. When I arrived at Washburn the Staff was amazing to me. They made me as comfortable as possible and let me know I could talk to them whenever I needed to. My caseworker LJ was absolutely amazing. She was so smart, compassionate and just supported me so much. As were all the other case workers. You could tell they really cared about their job and wanted everyone to succeed. The daily meetings at Washburn were great and they were the same as the meetings that I got at the CSS that I transferred to to be honest. And that is saying a lot because detox they know that you are sick and they are just trying to help you get through the day. But I got the best tools and ways to cope at my time at Washburn. The day to day floor staff was also so nice. They always checked in on you and made sure you were ok. When I went to the new CSS not a day went by that I didn t add Washburn to my gratitude list. I honestly believe if I didn t go to Washburn first I wouldn t have gotten the positive and life changing experience that I got. I am 27 days sober and I plan on staying sober for the rest of my life, with a lot of hard work ahead of me. My family and me will forever be grateful to Washburn and If you are ready to do the work then you can get so much out of this program. I mean there are hard to find the words to thank a place that you feel like helped give you your life back!

The Washburne house is hands down the best DETOX/CSS In the State. I ve been to probably all of them and I ve never had a better experience. I went in October 2024 broken, lost my spouse of 20 yrs my business, my truck, and my apartment. I was negative about my future and ready to not even try. When I left I went to the facility I wanted to go, I was positive, and for the first time of many times trying in the past Im really serious and ready to stay sober. I can t say enough or express how much the BHTS CASEWORKER/CLINICIANS MDS/NURSING, and the kitchen and House Kitchen staff have made an impact on my stay. I would and will recommend anyone who wants to get there life together and seriously change the Washburn house is a place that will make you feel welcome and give you all the tools and support to continue and get you where you need to go on your journey to sobriety. On a final note I m going back in 6 months and apply to work part time as a BHT so I can give back the same experience and help to the next person in need also feel the same as the Washburn House made me feel. Thank you aWashburn House for everything Brian S.

Hey Everyone at RCA Westminster!Rikku here, your favorite fluffy, Siberian Husky therapy dog, checking in with my human mom! We've been having a blast visiting you every Tuesday for about a year now, and we absolutely love being a part of the RCA Westminster family. It's our special way of giving back, and it brings us so much joy!You guys always make us feel so incredibly welcome! The staff are the best seriously, sometimes I think they sneak in even more cuddles than the patients (and I'm totally okay with that!). My mom loves to get me dressed up in a different bandana or outfit each week, so keep an eye out for my stylish looks! Seriously, she has something for every occasion!Our Tuesday routine involves visiting each of the three groups Wachusett, Monadnock, and Rescue for around 20-30 minutes each. I love showing off my tricks and all the cool things I've learned. It's also great hearing about your own furry friends and just getting to snuggle, especially when someone's having a tough time.My mom's face lights up whenever a patient or staff member says they've been waiting all day for our visit! We really put our hearts into making each Tuesday a special and uplifting experience for everyone.A Note from Rikku's Mom:Being part of the RCA Westminster community has been such an eye-opening and heartwarming experience. We adore our Tuesday visits, and the staff there make it so easy and enjoyable!Their genuine affection for Rikku is wonderful to see, and they always look forward to his visits and his ever-changing wardrobe.Rikku has totally got the RCA routine down. The moment we pull into the parking lot, he's ready to go, tail wagging, knowing he's about to get lots of love (and maybe a few treats, ok ok a LOT of treats!). He's even starting to pick up on when someone needs a little extra attention and will stay by their side a bit longer he's such a smart boy!We've attached some photos from our visits around RCA. You'll see Rikku with the 12 Steps, the RCA Westminster sign, the Serenity Prayer, a fun Thanksgiving picture from the great room, and one of Rikku and mom (with him in a therapist's chair and me in a patient's).Thank you all so much for having us! We're already looking forward to many more Tuesdays filled with smiles and furry cuddles!Warmly,Rikku and Dorothea(Just a reminder that in every photo, Rikku is safely on his leash, under my control, away from patients and staff, and wearing his official therapy dog tags.)

I recently went with a friend, who is an alumni of RCA, to a meeting. My friend is sober over a year and is still involved in going to RCA. They can t say enough about the place, all positive for them. To see the change in my friend and my experiences as a visitor, I feel the same as they do. They have great staff and there s a good energy in the place. I m looking forward to going back with my friend and passing it on.

I've been to a few different rehab's by far RCA been the cleanest and most helpful program for my recovery I'm grateful that I was directed to RCA.

Awesome place to go!! Great accomodations, the staff are great and super helpful.

I got a full-time job. I'm gonna be 7 months sober. On the 12th I graduated avenues, twice the second time I graduated avenues, I was almost 2 years sober, and I got some bad news about my mom and I could not handle it and I relouched, but I'm clean and serene now. And like I said, I got a full time job this time around, and that's what's keeping me focused and motivated to stay sober

I ve learned and taken away so much about mental health and addiction from Avenues. I m forever thankful for the Dublin facility, and the staff that helped make it possible for me to live my best life.

Great Recovery has helped me so much in my journey to Recovery.

I've been at Merrick Street for nearly a year, and my experince has been truly amazing. Spectrum staff members are caring, well-educated and passionate about helping each client on an individual basis. The level of care far exceeds that of other programs. I started my 'journey' at Sisters of Providence in Holyoke, and (apart from my clinician -- who was amazing!), it felt like conveyor-belt-style care. Now, that was a 2-hour round-trip commute every morning, but Information about Spectrum (20 minutes away) was hidden from me (despite my inquiries) for months because it was a separate organization and they likely didn't want to lose me as a paycheck -- I mean patient.Spectrum is the total opposite. It has changed my life. I wasted years fearing a program, and the stigma attached. But I realized-- since I was already dealing with the stigma of having fibromyalgia and chronic pain, it made no difference, and I needed to try -- for me. Since entering, I have met so many incredible people, shared and heard many incredible stories, and in a way, I am proud to be part of something so positive.

Helps me,be a better person.

I am so thankful for her help and how CC helps people in the community. PLEASE donate. PLEASE volunteer. We all have to do what we can to help keep organizations like this afloat!!!!

Excellent service

They are very friendly and the food is the best

I cannot say enough good things about the lead doctor here Dr. B he is amazing and so kind and understanding. I ve been on many different clinics and I ve never been treated in such a humanizing way by a doctor. The clinic is good and I ve never had any problems with the nursing or any of the staff.

Title: Exceptional Care and Support During Challenging TimesI recently had the privilege of experiencing the exemplary service provided by Spectrum Medical during a particularly challenging period of illness. From the moment I initiated contact, their intake process demonstrated efficiency and compassion, alleviating much of the stress associated with seeking medical assistance while unwell.In particular, Brooke, a member of their team, exhibited an exceptional level of professionalism, attentiveness, and support throughout our interactions. Her dedication to ensuring my needs were met was evident, as she promptly scheduled appointments and provided invaluable assistance with navigating MA insurance, easing the burden of administrative tasks during a time of vulnerability.For individuals grappling with dependency issues, I wholeheartedly recommend Spectrum and their outstanding team.Their commitment to excellence in care, coupled with a compassionate approach, undoubtedly makes them a beacon of hope for those in need of support and guidance during challenging times.With love and respect I.D

I'm not on the clinic and have never had a drug problem but a few of my friends are on it and I'm so happy that it's available for them. I thank the people who work here for saving lives!!!

Great staff, very friendly and helpful

They have many services and programs like intensive outpatient treatment, outpatient detoxification, dialectical behavioral therapy, Family Support Services, Parenting Groups, individual groups, family counseling, and dual diagnosis counseling. Just to name a few. Adcare Outpatient substance use treatment allows you to attend rehab programs while still attending to your daily responsibilities. They changed my life. The staff are caring and nonjudgemental. If you're struggling, give Adcare a try.

I have gone twice, each time put me back on track! This place, and affiliated buildings (inpatient, and out patient) are really incredible. They have what you need that will not just fit your life style, but what you actually need to get better. So many levels of care...Thank you guys for your help!
