Good Eating Disorder Centers in Arizona?
Question by forgatmigej: Good eating disorder centers in Arizona?
My sister is suffering from anorexia and my parents are trying to find a place to send her for inpatient care. The hospital gave us some references, but we haven’t been able to find any patient reviews about the cost, level of care, and recovery rate. Rosewood Ranch seems pretty popular, is it a good place?
My parents really need to find my sister a place to go when she gets out of the hospital.
Please help!

Some centers do more advertising than others. It would appear that your parents need to make a visit to some eating disorder centers in Arizona before your sister is released from the hospital.
If the hospital provided references, that might be a good way to begin. Ask the hospital how the list was reached? Affiliations or success rates. They may actually have the answers you need.
Below is a list of several eating disorder centers in Arizona by city:

I’d forgotten about the Mayo Clinic in Arizona; however I didn’t see an eating disorder center.

There is a place to leave reviews here, I don’t know how to see the results

There aren’t any online reviews that I can find and the best way to determine cost is to go the facility for a visit and ask. Don’t accept vague answers. There are daily rates and there are extras. Begin at the beginning. There should also be a fee schedule which can be provided. Someone has a fee schedule at each center or they would be unable to bill.
Know also that there are online links to the facilities. Call or email them with rate questions.
Rating questions are another matter as if they have thank you letters, you will see them. If there are issues, you may be able to get information from the state or legal records but probably not in an online review.
It may be that your sister needs a broader list of services, several of these clinics supply these also.
But I do understand your need for client reviews and concern about costs:

To get an idea of costs, see this list:

At the only place I saw a semblance of reviews (but who knows if they are legitimate?) Rosewood received a 1* out of 5 for Quality of care and 2**/5 for Staff rating
Since the average cost of the top clinics is between $ 800-$ 1,000 per day, getting prices up front seems crucial. Especially when insurance might not begin to cover the stay needed to be effective treatment for the patient.

Go to www.edtreatmentreview.wordpress.com. There is extensive information there about treatment centers and hospitals all around the country(including Rosewood Ranch and other places in Arizona) written by former clients. It’s an excellent resource and if you have any questions, someone who has been there will usually respond. Remuda Ranch is also a well known treatment center in Arizona with a good reputation. It is Christian based and usually takes low-weight and medically compromised patients. Take care!
