Thank you to all the staff at live free residential for helping me get to where I am now. I am so appreciative to them helping me jump start my life. They have amazing counselors and staff who helped me with all my aftercare needs. I am so grateful for this program!!!!!!
This place is awesome! The staff is great! They’re caring, compassionate, and empathetic. They treat each resident individually to meet each of their needs. 24 hr nursing staff helps with each residents detox needs. They also help with after care plans and placement back into the community. Peers also are very supportive to eachother, I highly recommend live free recovery to anyone looking for help with addiction.
The facility and staff were extremely helpful and accommodating with my detox. It was a calm environment and the nurses were always available to meet whatever needs I had to help me transition. I would highly recommend coming here if you are looking for help with any addiction.
