Red Oak Recovery® Programs Announce Re-Accreditation by CARF

Red Oak Recovery® programs are thrilled to announce that they have received their three-year re-accreditation by CARF International, an independent, nonprofit accreditor of health and human services. The Red Oak Recovery® family of programs includes Red Oak Recovery® (for young adult men ages 18-30), The Willows at Red Oak Recovery® (for young adult women ages 18-35), and Foothills at Red Oak Recovery (for adolescent boys ages 14-17). Each of these programs provides gender-separate, developmentally specific, evidence-based clinical care for clients and their families. CARF (the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities) International promotes and supports quality services through their consultative accreditation process that centers on enhancing the lives of persons served (carf.org).
There were many areas that the CARF survey team praised the Red Oak Recovery® programs for. In their official report, they specifically applauded the program for its “dedication and commitment to improving the lives of the persons served.” They also noted that clients were especially complimentary of the programs, praising staff for genuinely caring about clients. “Staff members demonstrate the qualities of empathy, advocacy, respect, teamwork, and professionalism” and “they extend themselves beyond the typical expectations of their positions.” CARF surveyors also mentioned how professional, cohesive, and dedicated the Red Oak Recovery® team is to their clients.
“We are very pleased about the re-accreditation by CARF as confirmation of the outstanding services we provide to our clients and their families,” says Jack Kline, MS, LCMHCS, LCAS, CCS, CTT-2, MAC, Founder and President. “This highlights the hard work and commitment of each and every employee at our programs and their desire to strive for excellence.”
