About Safe Child Visitation Center

The Safe Child Visitation Center has been serving Massachusetts since 1953. The organization began when a group of parents began advocating for their children and evolved into the Seven Hills Foundation. They've grown to over 235 locations, of which the Safe Child Visitation Center in Fall River is one.

Protecting the Safety of Children with Unstable Homes

Supervised child visitation offers families an opportunity to protect the safety and welfare of children and parents in a neutral environment. This offers children the opportunity to maintain a connection with their parents as parents are receiving treatment or rehabilitation for domestic violence, child abuse, or substance abuse.

Services are offered in many languages other than English, which includes Portuguese, Spanish and Creole. Scheduled visits occur in visitation rooms that are equipped with games, furniture and televisions. The center also offers additional support to parents, including parenting groups, mental health support, recovery support groups and anger management groups.

Protecting Children & Families

I like that the Safe Child Visitation Center has separate entrances and exits, making it easy for children and parents to meet on neutral territory and in a supervised situation. This prevents unintended contact between parties using a security informed layout that protects all participants.

Fall River is an industrial city with a population of roughly 94,000. They were formerly a 19th century textile hub but are most famous for the 1892 Lizzie Borden murder mystery. I’m impressed that the city has recently begun focusing on revitalizing manufacturing, also attracting technological businesses. However, significant snowfall during the winter months can cause substantial disruptions to services.

Amenities

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. 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.

Metropolitan Area

Addiction treatment in the metro area benefits clients by offering seamless connections from the city, around the state, and those seeking out-of-state treatment. Another benefit of attending a metro area drug rehab is that you’re close to major airports and ground transportation services.

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get 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.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Alcoholism

Most alcohol rehab in Massachusetts consists of individual counseling and group therapy sessions, which address mental and emotional concerns that are contributing to alcohol use. Treatment helps participants make changes to maintain sobriety and prevent relapse.

Drug Rehab

Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.

Opioid Treatment

When you enter opioid rehab in Massachusetts, you’ll receive treatment in a supportive environment that encourages recovery. After successful withdrawal management, you’ll participate in a variety of evidence-based therapies that prepare you for long-term sobriety.

LGBTQ Friendly Rehab

LGBTQ-friendly rehab in Massachusetts offers programs targeted to the unique experiences within this diverse community. Staff specialists understand that an environment promoting acceptance makes it easier for people to open up and focus on healing.

Women's Rehab

Women who are seeking treatment for substance use disorders can receive various levels of care at women’s rehab in Massachusetts. Programs include detox, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), telehealth programs, sober living, outpatient, and aftercare.

Teen & Adolescent Program

Teen and young adult substance abuse can set individuals on a life-long path of destruction. A young adult program in Massachusetts can intervene in young adults’ lives to set them on a better path during this crucial stage of life.

Adult Program

Each adult program in Massachusetts is designed to help individuals over the age of 18 recover from addiction to drugs or alcohol. The length of the program and its intensity varies, based on the needs of the individual.

Levels of Care

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.

Outpatient Rehab

Massachusetts outpatient rehab does not have a defined timeline. The program is tailored to meet your recovery needs, and may last 90 days or a year or more. During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Aftercare rehab in Massachusetts gives you continued access to support after rehab. You may need assistance with job coaching, budgeting, education, or accountability as you re-enter your life. Aftercare programs provide these supports, so you can face challenges and maintain a sober lifestyle long-term.

Drug & Alcohol Intervention

You don’t have to be an expert on interventions to help an addicted loved one. Staff members offer intervention services in Massachusetts, providing support when planning and facilitating an intervention, connecting you with community resources, and helping with the development of your loved one's treatment plan.

Detox & MAT

The first step to a drug-free future is detox. This involves slowly and safely ridding your body of all addictive substances, under 24/7 supervision. This is typically the initial phase of drug rehab in Massachusetts.

Payment Options

Private Insurance

If you have private insurance, you can use it to help cover the cost of treatment. Most rehab insurance policies tend to have different coverage rates and costs that policyholders are responsible for paying, so check with your insurer for detailed information.

Self-Pay Options

If you prefer to take control of the cost of your treatment, you can opt to pay for it yourself through self-pay options, also known as private pay. This option provides access to all levels of care — from detox to inpatient rehabilitation — because you’re not limited by the rules of insurers or state-run programs.

Financial Aid

If you're struggling to pay for treatment, financial aid may be a solution for you. This can provide access to all levels of care. Financial assistance options include grants, scholarships, non-profit programs, personal funding, and health insurance programs to help you manage the expense of substance abuse treatment.

Pay-Per-Session

Rather than pay for an entire treatment program at once, you can pay for substance abuse counseling per session. Rates for therapy sessions vary by treatment provider and generally range from $130-$200. Typical forms of payment accepted include insurance, credit, debit, and cash.

Sliding Scale Payment

If you can't pay the full cost of treatment, a sliding scale payment plan may be a solution for you. This option provides access to all levels of care. To qualify for this treatment discount, you must complete an application and provide supporting financial documentation.

Medicaid Accepted

If you're in need of financial assistance, MassHealth may be an option for you. MassHealth can help pay for all levels of care, including detox and inpatient rehabilitation.

Medicare Accepted

As a resident of Massachusetts with MassHealth Senior Care Options, you may have coverage options to help with the cost of treatment. The amount of coverage will depend on many things, including whether you are seeking inpatient or outpatient treatment for substance abuse.

TRICARE

Administered by the Department of Defense, TRICARE offers comprehensive military health insurance plans for active and retired military members and their families. Similar to PPO programs offered by private insurance companies, TRICARE covers multiple levels of care for addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient services.
