About Sumter Behavioral Health Services – Sumter
Freedom House is a residential drug and alcohol rehab center for women in Sumter, South Carolina. This is a 13 bedroom house that operates under Sumter Behavioral Health Services. The residence is open to women who are currently in an addiction treatment program or just finished one and want a sober place to live as they transition back into society. They accept most kinds of commercial insurance, self payment, Medicaid, and Tricare.
The program requires 40 hours of participation each week, or eight hours a day, and most women stay in it for about three to six months. They live in a comfortable setting that’s designed to feel as homelike as possible. During their stay, they’ll learn teamwork, cooperation, and independent living skills.
If clients have been separated from their families due to substance abuse, they’ll take steps to reunify with them while they’re in the program. The daily schedule includes basic household chores, meditation, and group therapy sessions with certified counselors. Clients may also travel to attend outpatient services at another facility and then return to the residence.
