How We Verify Rehabs

How We Verify Addiction Treatment Centres

Not all rehabs are the same, and we don’t believe they should be judged on their
 marketing alone. Our verification process highlights the centres that align with our ethical framework of transparency, honesty and client-centred care.

Why Verification Matters

Not Every Rehab Is Right for Everyone, and You Deserve to Know the Difference.

Some treatment centres offer outstanding care, while others might overpromise, misrepresent their services, or use fear-mongering tactics to attract clients.

We don’t believe in fear-based comparisons or exposing other providers, but we do feel it necessary to highlight the clinics doing it right.

That’s where our Open Rehab Initiative comes in.

What the Open Rehab Initiative Measures

Our Verification Framework Includes 6 Core Areas

Our Six Transparency Criteria:

What "Verified" Means (and Doesn’t)

This Isn’t a Badge for Sale. It’s a Commitment.

Rehabs can’t pay to be verified. They must satisfy our scoring process and meet the minimum standards across all six categories.

What a Verified Centre Gets:

  • A badge on their profile
  • A detailed transparency report
  • Visibility within our ethical directory
  • Ongoing re-assessment every 6–12 months

Important: We do allow sponsored listings for visibility upgrades, but the verification status is never for sale and is evaluated separately.

  • We review the issue directly
  • We re-check the relevant verification categories
  • Centres may be re-scored or removed if needed
