About Hazel D. Plant Women’s Treatment Facility
The Hazel D. Plant Women’s Treatment Facility was opened in 2005 in New Castle, Delaware. This is an exclusively female facility that offers the Road to Recovery (R2R) program. The program provides women offenders with comprehensive substance use disorder (SUD) treatment in conjunction with a work release component.
The program is administered by the Delaware Department of Corrections in partnership with behavioral and medical healthcare providers. They accept Medicare and Medicaid.
Employment Experience and Addiction Treatment
The program employs female offenders, which provides work experience as they go through the treatment program. Employment includes groundskeeping, laundry, housekeeping, telephone operations and food service opportunities.
New Castle is a historic town in Delaware. The town has well preserved buildings, cobblestone streets and museums. There are also opportunities for outdoor activities with trails, parks and historic sites.
The women participating in the program are in one of three treatment levels. These include programs that are 4-6 months, 6-9 months or 9-12 months. The length of treatment is determined by the amount of care required and the participant’s behavior.
A Range of Services
Clients engage in a range of treatments. These include interactive journaling, anger management, and educational classes such as learning about healthy relationships. Ongoing assessments are provided.
Clients have found the program helpful. One patient remarked, “In this place they gave me back my life,” Each woman has an individualized treatment plan. There are several facilities that offer the program in Delaware, and women may be moved among the facilities to complete their program.

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Clients in outpatient rehab have often completed inpatient treatment and are stable and progressing in their recovery journey. Others may have elected to move straight from detox into outpatient care to minimize disruptions to their work or family life. Because outpatient clients' needs may vary widely, treatment programs and levels of care are also often diverse. Clients requiring more frequent and substantive psychotherapy and recovery support may enroll in intensive outpatient (IOP) or partial hospitalization (PHP) programs.
Treatments
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Programs
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Group therapy helps build a sense of community in participating men and women. You share experiences and your goals, which helps create strong bonds that support each person's path to recovery. These bonds often lead to long term supportive relationships as you transition into the community.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Delaware families focus on creating a supportive network for the individual in recovery during family therapy. Therapists work with your family to identify dysfunctional patterns and develop healthier ways of interacting. This can significantly improve the overall treatment outcome.
