I’ve been involved with Northpoint as an alumni for the past 5 years (I was a patient in 2018 at the Boise location). I come do alumni speaking engagements at this facility 3-5 times a year for the past 5 years. I didn’t go to this facility (because it didn’t exist when I got sober in 2018) but I go enough through the year to be comfortable leaving a review for it.
It’s certainly one of the nicer treatment centers in Washington (I’ve been to a few others). Covid was hard for the facility (outbreaks, more zoom, and staff turnover). It’s now significantly better than it was a couple years ago. Staff is great, patients seem engaged, and less/no zoom meetings.
It’s a nice new facility, great staff, and northpoint gave me the tools I needed to be sober and live a better way of life. Their alumni and outpatient programs are also really great to help maintain sobriety after leaving.
Addiction really sucks. It’s super sad but recovery is not for those who need it, it’s for those who want it. Long term sobriety is only possible if the patient really wants to do it for themselves. Northpoint does work for those who want it to work and are honest, open minded, and willing. It’s really difficult at first but over time it gets easier.
