AAC Keeps Rehab Centers Open Amid Brutal Winter Storm
American Addiction Centers (AAC) has confirmed its facilities will stay open and fully staffed during the ongoing winter storm. The organisation continues to accept new patients while ensuring current ones receive uninterrupted care. Staff are prepared to handle severe weather with backup systems in place.
AAC’s network of treatment centres—including AdCare, Desert Hope, Greenhouse, Laguna, Oxford, Recovery First, and River Oaks—remains operational. Each location has backup generators and extra supplies to maintain services despite the storm. The group is also welcoming new admissions without delay.
Patients and alumni can access support remotely through AAC’s online resources. Virtual alumni meetings and the AAC Together app provide recovery tools and community connections. This ensures those in treatment or recovery stay linked to sober support networks, even when travel is difficult. Dr. Lawrence Weinstein, Chief Medical Officer at AAC, reaffirmed the team’s commitment to patient care. He stated that staff are fully dedicated to meeting the needs of individuals and families during this challenging period. The organisation’s mission focuses on restoring hope and empowering lasting recovery through evidence-based treatment.
AAC offers round-the-clock assistance for those seeking help, with admissions navigators available 24/7 at 866-244-1070. The centres provide both inpatient and outpatient care for substance use and mental health disorders. Despite the storm, services continue without interruption, ensuring patients receive consistent support.
