The Julian F. Keith Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Center is an 80-bed residential and detox/crisis stabilization treatment facility designed to meet the needs of alcohol and other drug dependent adults of the 36 westernmost counties in North Carolina. The length of stay at JFK ADATC is variable and determined by individual need. Admission is available to any adult consumer in the 36-county region, regardless of financial resources or insurance status. Referrals are made by Local Management Entities within the JFK ADATC service region. JFK ADATC is certified as a psychiatric hospital by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and as a behavioral health organization by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.

CMS Investigations

Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Centers are inspected on a regular basis. Inspectors may also enter to investigate complaints that may come up between regular visits. Survey teams from the Acute Care Section of the N.C. Division of Health Service Regulation inspect the centers to determine whether they are meeting standards set by the state, and by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. If the centers are in compliance with CMS rules, then they may bill Medicare and Medicaid for patient care. Copies of CMS inspections are available on this site. (All reports are PDF documents, less than 100 KB, unless otherwise noted):

Joint Commission Reports

The Joint Commission, an independent not-for-profit organization that accredits health care organizations, also inspects hospitals. Copies of Joint Commission inspections for the past three years are available on this site:
