About Brandon School
The Brandon School offers a unique combination of mental and behavioral health support and education to adolescent and teen boys. While they don’t provide substance use disorder treatment directly at this facility, addicted clients can still get a comprehensive assessment through their STARR program. The Brandon School is located in Nutwick, Massachusetts.
A Truly Deep Dive
A drug and alcohol addiction evaluation here means more than determining an appropriate level of care. During a short term stay (up to 45 days), their care team will ask a range of questions to uncover stressors that could influence substance misuse and hurdles that hinder everyday functioning. I like the depth of their evaluations because they focus on things like environment and family dynamics, potential links that are easy to overlook.
Laying the Path Forward
You’re not left on your own when the evaluation ends. Once the care team has completed their interview, they’ll collaborate with family members to discuss the best steps forward for the client. This aftercare includes recommendations for treatment and social support.
I appreciate the extra help here because many aspects of seeking treatment can be confusing for those new to the process. For example, the care team will recommend the appropriate level of care for your loved one so you don’t have to guess.
Amenities
Private Rehab
Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to ge...t your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recov...er. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.Addiction Treatment Programs

During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health
If you meet the diagnostic criteria for two or more conditions, you have a dual diagnosis. Massachusetts dual ...diagnosis treatment is designed to address both conditions simultaneously, for improved recovery outcomes.Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
