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.

West Oaks Hospital is a leading clinical alcohol and drug treatment facility situated in Houston, Texas, featuring a modern setting and a capacity of 160 psychiatric beds, including 16 designated for adults seeking specialized substance abuse treatment. The facility prioritizes comprehensive care and offers a range of services tailored to support clients on their path to recovery.
Before beginning treatment, some clients undergo detoxification under the supervision of a dedicated team of medical professionals. This process ensures the safe removal of toxic substances from the body while providing essential support and comfort to each client throughout.
The residential program at West Oaks Hospital allows clients to reside at the facility during treatment, providing all necessary amenities such as meals and accommodation. This environment enables clients to fully focus on their recovery journey, with the duration of the inpatient program varying based on individual needs.
Within the inpatient program, clients benefit from 24-hour nursing care and collaborate closely with their care team to develop personalized treatment plans. The program integrates evidence-based approaches including 12-step recovery programs, individual and group therapy sessions, relapse prevention education, and life skills development. Peer support is fostered among clients to enhance mutual encouragement and progress through recovery.
West Oaks Hospital also offers an outpatient day program that mirrors the comprehensive care model of the inpatient program but allows clients to reside off-campus. This option is suitable for individuals who are stable and capable of managing their recovery needs with scheduled visits to the facility for therapy and support sessions. It also serves as a transitional step for those progressing from the inpatient program.
West Oaks Hospital is committed to providing compassionate, effective, and individualized care to empower clients in overcoming substance use challenges and achieving sustainable recovery.
West Oaks Hospital holds accreditation from The Joint Commission, underscoring its commitment to maintaining the highest standards of patient care and safety.
