Newsweek’s list of best addiction treatment centers in North Carolina for 2022 is out and Wilmington Treatment Center ranks # 1. To create the Best Addiction Treatment Centers 2022 list, Newsweek partnered with Statista, a global market research and consumer data firm. They invited more than 4,000 medical professionals to participate in the survey, which took place from June to July.
The list is based on two data sources — an online survey by state, and accreditation data on addiction treatment centers provided by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Facilities were assigned scores based on a variety of factors, including quality of care, follow-up services, accommodations, amenities, and accreditation.
This year, Newsweek and Statista included 330 addiction treatment centers in their final list, which represents the top 8%-17% of providers from 25 states. The 25 states that were included in this year’s evaluation are those that have the highest number of addiction treatment centers according to SAMHSA.
“We are honored to be recognized by Newsweek as the No. 1 addiction treatment center in North Carolina,” said Wilmington Treatment Center CEO Robert Pitts. “We are grateful for this recognition as we strive to ensure that we have the best employees, amenities, and programming options. Our compassionate and dedicated staff works tirelessly to help those who are suffering from substance use disorders.”
