At Right Choice Recovery in New Jersey, founded in 2020 when Rob’s vision became a reality through his personal triumph over addiction, we prioritize Partial Care as the cornerstone of our compassionate and comprehensive alcohol and drug rehab treatment program. Rob’s journey serves as the foundation of our center, a guiding light for individuals and families seeking a path to healing and renewal, while many of our staff members who have walked the path from addiction to recovery themselves bring unique understanding and empathy to their work.
Our Partial Care program, designed for intensive support, focuses on stabilization and delving into the underlying causes of addiction on an individual level, serving as the foundation for our approach which includes a broad spectrum of care options tailored to meet the specific needs of individuals struggling with substance abuse and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Further care levels, including outpatient treatment, support reintegration and prepare our clients for life post-rehab. These programs, including specialized therapies and supportive aftercare, are delivered in a nurturing environment, setting our center apart as a haven for healing.

Our addiction treatment program offers an individualized approach for every client. Age, length of use, type of addiction, and co-occurring medical (co-morbidities), and mental health disorders determine the client's unique needs. We identify these needs through a thorough assessment that follows DSM-5 guidelines and ASAM criteria. This allows us to form an individualized treatment program that involves relapse prevention and a long-term plan. See below for more information on the different drug, alcohol, mental health, and gambling addiction programs offered for adults and adolescents.
