Aware Recovery Care

Lisa Ferd

In May of 2022 I went to a recovery treatment center for alcohol detox. When I left the detox facility it was strongly recommended that I continue on with some sort of a program. I spoke to a representative from aware and I learned about what they were all about. It seemed like a good idea at the time. I was to meet with a nurse and clinical staff 2 times per week for a year. They didn’t seem to match me up with people who had like experiences or issues. They also pushed the Vivitrol shot vs. daily naltrexone. A trained member of their clinical staff was to administer the shot. I was given the shot by 2 ladies that didn’t seem all that confident about what they were doing. She claimed she didn’t bring gloves, and when I offered her a pair she said I’m more comfortable without. This should have been my cue to send them away. However after 45 minutes of these girls trying to mix the powder with the liquid and then switching out needle for a 1” to a 2 “ they finally administered the shot. 11 days post injection I called the nurse bc something felt off. I was told this is Normal. Again at day15 post injection I called again bc now I was feeling nauseous and the injection sight was swollen. Again this is normal. Well around day 18 I was running a 102.9 fever, was vomiting, confused and I went to the emergency room where I was admitted into the hospital for 4 days hooked up to IV antibiotics. My body had been fighting off a terrible infection for 2 weeks I was in a septic state. 10 days later I’m still in pain and on hi test antibiotics at home. I missed over 9 days of work due to the lack of professionalism in these girls they claim Were trained in administration of Vivitrol shot. I would not trust them. I hope they don’t make this same mistake twice. Currently we are working with a medical malpractice lawyer in an effort to make this right. Trust your gut as I wish I had.

I am a licensed counselor who works with AWARE on a mutual referral basis and I absolutely love them. If they are the appropriate level of care, they are the only place I send clients to as they have a well-rounded program that deals with all areas of life. I love that it’s a year long program which actually gives people a solid foundation for recovery. The worst review I have had from a client was neutral feelings about the program which is rare. Usually clients report positive experiences in the program & find it helpful. So far they have made sure I was a good fit for clients they send me and if I’m not, we find someone else.
