STAMPS OF APPROVAL

Lifeline licensed and accredited for meeting standards

For the first time in our history, Lifeline Recovery Center has been licensed and accredited by two separate agencies, affirming our commitment to excellence in treatment for alcohol and drug addiction. In May, we were licensed for 29 beds at the men’s campus and 16 beds at the women’s campus as an inpatient Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment Entity by the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Human Services. In July, we were licensed by the cabinet for outpatient services. Lifeline’s nine-month program includes three phases of residential and outpatient treatment. Also, in July, Lifeline received three-year accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities following a recent survey. CARF International says the accreditation indicates Lifeline conforms to treatment standards and represents a commitment to improving the quality of lives of its clients. Executive director Ashley Miller said the two licenses and accreditation are Lifeline’s firsts.

“We have worked many years to achieve these milestones,” she said. “Meeting the strict standards for licensure and accreditation is a wonderful affirmation of our recovery program and reflects the commitment to excellence from our staff and volunteers. It is a stamp of approval to give our clients and their families confidence in the treatment we offer.”
