Cenikor Foundation – Farmington

Just completed the 30 day program, very helpful, great staff, good food, clean facilities, decent amount of basic work out equipment, volley ball court, horse shoe area...... Very helpful medical staff, also a very… smooth approach to detox( I didn't experience it, just what others I talked to said) if you don't want to do in patient, they offer IOP, and after care.

Worst place to go. They didn’t listen to anything in regards to how I felt. I continuously asked to call my job each day I was there and I was denied. The medication I was on did not make me feel any good. The nurses… kept saying go to sleep but I couldn’t because it was so loud during the day. People were smoking cigarettes and being loud out in the halls. And the food tasted awful. I did not enjoy my time there. Do not go here. I was told not to leave and was forced to stay. It costed me my job considering they denied my phone call to my job each day. Do not go there. Find a better place if you need help.

My experience with Cenikor Foundation was heartbreaking and incredibly disappointing. I went into this hoping my boyfriend would receive real help, structure, and support during one of the most vulnerable times in his… life. Instead, we felt completely shut out of the entire process. Communication was extremely limited—we were only allowed one phone call per week. When someone you love is struggling with addiction, that level of isolation doesn’t just affect them, it affects the people who care about them too. My children and I had no way to truly stay connected or be part of his recovery journey. What was even more upsetting was the complete lack of family involvement. As a family we were not included in any classes, counseling, or education about addiction. No one offered guidance on how to support him or what to expect when he came home. Addiction doesn’t just impact the individual—it impacts the whole family—and that was completely ignored. From what I experienced and observed, there seemed to be far too much unstructured free time. Instead of a focused, supportive environment, it felt like there was room for unhealthy dynamics to develop. That’s the opposite of what someone in recovery needs. When he was discharged, it honestly felt like he was just sent back to us with little to no preparation, resources, or aftercare plan. No real support system was put in place to help him succeed outside of the facility, and that was incredibly frustrating and disheartening. This experience didn’t just fail to help—it made an already painful situation even harder. I truly wish we had chosen a different facility. If you’re looking for treatment for someone you love, I strongly encourage you to explore other options that actually involve families, provide structure, and offer real support.

I voluntary went to cenakor September 10 2025 for the 30 day program. I have not relapsed once. I got a good job, my relationships with my girlfriend, family, friends are a 100 times better. My health is better, my mind… is clear, I am learning everyday to love my sober self again thanks to Cenakor! Honestly, I can't really complain. I had 3 meals a day, plus fruits as a snack. Yes, we shared a dorm but I had a good dorm group for the most part. We had a comfortable bed, a small laundry room with 2 wash days, we had easy chores to keep our minds busy that helped with the rehabilitation process. I did dishes the whole time I was there when we weren't attending our classes and AA meetings etc. Which sometimes involved activities throughout the day, we had plenty of free time. We could smoke cigarettes, that was a plus for me. I would play basketball, volleyball, I learned to play spades, and make bracelets. We would also play music on the speaker at night time, we would get chips and salsa for our night meetings, we got popcorn when we watched movies. I know Cenakor isn't a Marriott hotel but for what it's business purpose is, I don't have a single complaint. I am truly grateful for Cenikor and the BHTs I got to know while I was in recovery. Shout out to the staff members Daphne, Michael, and Kayla. They were a big part of my recovery and still are. Also, to the entire medical/nurse staff.

My boyfriend does not want to go back he told me its not a good place to rehabilitate from what he seen its just a place for addicts to get out of what they are feeling but for him he said he fell in love with another… addict and since then they cant stop talking to each other now she's a liver cirrhosis patient and he cant stop talking to her he will try to leave with her without know knowing all she wants is liqour

I was there for 7 days and I was threatened by a client who was saying he was going to kill me and he got to stay and they didn't believe me then I was treated very awful plus they forgot to give me my new meds

Son wasn’t let get a phone call during the entire process despite checking he was on the list which he was for Thursday. He never got a call, bht’s didn’t seem to care when he asked. While being in treatment he got RSV… which now me and him are dealing with, when he told the nurses he couldn’t breathe and his throat hurts they gave him a mask and a cough drop and one nurse even bragged about having 30 years of nursing experience while understating my son. He’s 18 and also has asthma along with the stuggles of addiction along with RSV now. And as the son I can say every patient was unhappy and felt as if it was a prison, I felt the same. If you want rehab go to the ones in Santa Fe I hear their nice.

Going to Cenikor treatment, was the best decision I have ever made, all the staffs are very caring, understanding, and encouraging, I was a total mess when I entered Cenikor treatment, and left a whole new and better… person, each and every staff played a big part in my recovery, I will forever be grateful for all of you Cenikor staffs, you all believed in me when no one else did, Shout out to LESTER, HEAD OF THE BHT, your the best, you're the first person at Cenikor that made me believe in myself, ONE DAY AT A TIME, STARTING WITH JUST FOR TODAY!!!!.

Thank you to all the BHTs , Julie Mayo, Lisa Marek and Lester! It became a great opportunity with the help of you guys! I couldn’t have done it without y’all!

this place sucks

Four Winds in Farmington was so helpful in assisting Detainees get a bed for treatment. Called, filled out on line app. Received a call that does nothing to assist a detainee in getting services. That's what happens… when a big corporation takes over and has no intention in helping individuals that need treatment. Thumbs down!

Would not recommend to anyone looking for help. My loved one came here for support and guidance. The employees were rude and condescending making us feel like we were not welcome and less than. I left the facility… extremely upset and in tears after dropping off my family member but still hopeful that they would receive help. My loved one was admitted for a couple hours only to be kicked out because we were not told all of the information beforehand. The facility also lost my loved ones belongings in that short amount of time and they were never found.

Kicked people out when they should have kept them

Went to pick up someone. Drove 3 hours. We were told by recovery center person left already. As if

A very good place to be 👌 in recovery from alcoholic program and they have a dormitory a place to stay.
