Our Methodology
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
The process of removing drugs and alcohol from your system while under the 24/7 supervision of a medical team. Abruptly quitting substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids can have uncomfortable - or even deadly - side effects. To ensure your safety and comfort, you are monitored by a team of doctors, nurses, and clinical experts who provide medications if needed to treat any potential symptoms of withdrawal.
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Support provided by drug rehab in South Dakota includes social, physical, and emotional aspects. Program participants learn how to meet needs in each of these areas without turning to drugs. The goals of the program are freedom from drug dependency and long-term recovery.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Their treatment doesn't help, it only makes you worse. They don't care about your personal safety or mental health at all. This place is no place for someone to get better at, I mean the staff is only there for a paycheck
In 2012 at 14 years old I was placed here. The way this facility was run is that you use your peers as a sounding board. You share your deepest, darkest secrets to a group of mentally messed up kids who are already carrying their own baggage and tell them what you’re struggling with that day. The adults were there, basically to hold a key, “insure physical safety”, make sure we stayed on task with scheduling/structure. The problem with this is people would take on each other’s issues. We heard of things we probably didn’t need to know and learned more destructive behaviors. None of us as children are qualified child therapist and it takes a toll on your psyche hearing disturbing information at that age, on top of the trauma you’re already carrying and should be processing with an actual psychologist or therapist, not a group of other children with under developed frontal lobes. It actually even baffles me that anyone thinks this model is a good idea, it almost seems common sense that it wouldn’t be.. yet a group of educated adults really put this together thinking this would do the trick?? Not to mention kids are mean, it wasn’t safe to share with them anything, there was a lot of bullying, pettiness and abuse with the information we so vulnerably shared. Now, on another hand there was also very demeaning, verbally and physically abusive staff. Mocking, calling names and throwing down/being aggressive with kids who desperately needed their help. This place put me on a more destructive path than I was on before arriving. However that was 13 years ago and I can say that rebellious teenage phase was just that, a phase. I turned out ok, no thanks to Our Home Parkston. But I feel so much for some of my peers who really could’ve used actual help instead of whatever this place is.
The amount of abuse endured here during my adolescent imprisonment here was absolutely horrid. The place acted like an asylum, instead of helping kids, drugging them into submission. My brother who was here before me I guess set a standard for them to hold me to, where they treated me based upon his statements, and forcing me to endure torturous "treatments" listening to his stories he wrote about me. That's not therapy. That's repeat mental abuse. That causes decades of continuous trauma. They would put you in a straight jacket and lock you away hours on end in a padded room if they didn't like what you did or say. God forbid you where the odd ball out there. You got it from everywhere, and staff helped nothing. These places are an encampment for children they experiment on with their pills, and care nothing for. They say they are reformed in their systems. I doubt it. You are still part of so many of our traumas. I wasn't the only one hurt. In more ways than one there. Your system is trash, abusive, manipulative, and condescending. You claim reformation for these lives, but you rip them apart farther. These kids, most of them, come from broken pasts. And all you do is feed on their misery and scar them permanently for life.
This place is a terrible place to send your children. It was easier to get drugs in there than some places on the outs. The staff all had hidden agendas with the clients and the system was so corrupt you wouldn't know which way was up. Pedophilia was common among staff members. Seemed like they hired anybody. We hated being there while we were there and came out worse than going in. Rehabilitation? No. Control over children by pumping them full of meds? Yes. We were nothing but numbers to them.
We were taught to walk away from situations but got in trouble when we did
