Tips on Choosing a Free Rehab Center in Knoxville, TN

  • Make sure the center is accredited. Accreditation means that the center has met certain standards of quality and patient care. You can find accredited rehab centers by visiting the websites of the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) or The Joint Commission (TJC).
  • Check the center's track record. How long has the center been in operation? What is its success rate? You can find this information by reading online reviews or by contacting the center directly.
  • Consider the center's treatment approach. Does the center offer a variety of treatment modalities, or does it focus on one approach? What is the center's philosophy on addiction treatment?
  • Find out what the center's aftercare program is like. Aftercare is essential to long-term recovery. Make sure the center you choose offers a comprehensive aftercare program.
  • Make sure the center is a good fit for you. Consider your individual needs and preferences when choosing a rehab center. For example, if you have a co-occurring mental health disorder, you'll need to find a center that offers dual diagnosis treatment.

Here are some additional tips:

  • Ask about the center's admission process. What documentation do you need to provide? Is there a waiting list?
  • Find out what the center's policies are on insurance and financial assistance. Will the center accept your insurance? Does the center offer financial assistance to patients who need it?
  • Visit the center in person, if possible. This will give you a chance to meet the staff, see the facilities, and get a feel for the center's atmosphere.
  • Talk to people who have been to the center. Ask them about their experiences and whether they would recommend the center to others.
Choosing a rehab center is an important decision. By following these tips, you can find a free rehab center in Knoxville, TN that is right for you.

Meth 2 years, alcohol 14 years on and off, only used when my mental health start acting up or when tough times tend to hit. I use meth and alcohol as an excuse to self medicate. I don't carve it or have to have it so I'm not a codependent addict I'm a occasional addict from what my counselor calls it. Either I need to find other ways to handle my stress and mental health then turning to these things cause it always lands me in worse situation.

I have been to Ridgeview, Penninsula, Center Point, and St. Mary's- each provided dual diagnosis treatment. I'm lucky I have insurance but it's still been difficult to get in a treament facility without throwing around "Bi-polar" as the primary cause of the need for treatment.

I believe that effective treatment requires more than treating the addiction, the cause of the initial abuse of choice substances must be addressed and dealt with. If the underlying causes are ignored, sobriety, if it's achieved, will be brief.

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free treatment from some substance abuse centers, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income. When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
