Addiction Resource Score
Scoring is assigned by a proprietary system which helps surface key metrics that determine quality. The 10-point scale factors in categories such as operations, customer satisfaction, and trust metrics.
We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. That's why we've developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centers—from accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. You'll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.

Located in Richmond, Indiana, Richmond State Hospital is a public rehabilitation facility with a focus on treating opioid addiction, dual diagnosis, drug and alcohol addiction, and alcoholism. The Division of Mental Health and Addiction (DMHA), which establishes care guidelines for addiction and mental health services across Indiana, is in charge of this hospital and a larger network of facilities.
The goal of the DMHA is to guarantee that people have access to high-quality programs that support recovery and resilience on an individual, family, and community level. All community mental health facilities and providers of addiction treatment services are certified by the division as well. Richmond State Hospital, NeuroDiagnostic Institute, Evansville Psychiatric Children’s Center, Evansville State Hospital, Logansport State Hospital, and Madison State Hospital are among the six mental health facilities run by DMHA.
Comprehensive treatment plans are offered at Richmond State Hospital and are customized to each patient’s specific need. In order to treat the underlying causes of addiction and mental health illnesses, their method involves medically supervised detoxification, individual and group therapy, medication management, and holistic therapies. To guarantee that clients get the best possible treatment, the hospital places a strong emphasis on evidence-based procedures.
The DMHA’s mission is to relentlessly advance and uphold the mental health and welfare of all citizens of Indiana. The goal is to promote high-quality, easily available, and seamlessly integrated systems for the prevention, treatment, and recovery from drug use disorders as well as mental health promotion.
In order to carry out its mandate, the DMHA licenses inpatient psychiatric hospitals, oversees federal funding allotted for drug misuse prevention initiatives, and certifies community mental health clinics and addiction treatment service providers. Moreover, DMHA runs state mental health facilities and offers targeted populations in need of financial assistance for mental health and addiction treatment.
The DMHA uses a variety of tactics, such as collaborating with families and consumers, making sure tax dollars are used wisely, educating the public about addiction and mental health services, helping those without or with inadequate insurance, and establishing benchmarks for the caliber of care in these areas.
At Richmond State Hospital, rehabilitation entails supporting patients’ ability to live, work, study, and engage fully in their communities. This might include symptom reduction or total remission for some people, while for others it means leading a full and productive life in spite of a handicap. Based on scientific study, hope is important for the healing process.
Community Mental Health Centers (CMHCs) in Indiana provide vital addiction and mental health assistance to those struggling with severe mental illness and/or drug abuse problems. The target demographic consists of the most vulnerable Hoosiers, those who are least able to get care—that is, those who do not have insurance or who have insurance but have low incomes up to 200 percent of the federal poverty threshold. CMHCs are required by Indiana statute and have agreements with the DMHA to provide a comprehensive range of services related to addiction and mental health.
In order to assist its patients in achieving long-term rehabilitation and an enhanced quality of life, Richmond State Hospital is dedicated to providing them with thorough, caring care. Indiana works to promote and improve the well-being of its citizens via the cooperative efforts of the DMHA and the vast network of mental health and addiction services available across the state.
