Update on Malibu Vista

It's 2017. A lot has happened since feedback initially poured in and eventually led to the creation of this website. More patients have gone through the program at Malibu Vista, providing additional experience to one of Promises's treatment center that was still relatively new on the scene. Several staff quit or were fired over the past 2 years; however, others have remained with the center since it first opened its doors. Off-site treatment options have reportedly dwindled, particularly when patient count drops below 5, but has the treatment on-grounds improved at least?

Of the many questions to ask a treatment center you may be considering- especially one with a history like Malibu Vista - it is important to know what the program director and board have learned to do differently over time to improve their standard of care.
