What to Look for in a Treatment Website
I am on the Internet a lot and I spend a lot of time thinking about what makes a good site. Lately, I’ve been thinking about what makes a good site for a treatment facility from a potential client’s perspective. Over the next few days I am going to tell you a few things I think make good sites.First, never give out personal information over the Internet. I know I said this in a previous post, but I can’t over emphasize it. Treatment centers will tell you that they will not share your information with any third party and that is all confidential, and you know what - for the most part I believe them. I don’t think 97% of the directors of those treatment facilities would ever share your information. The problem is that cyberspace is not that secure of an environment. There are way to many Internet miscreants trying to get personal and identifying information. I’ll go as far as to say that I think it is irresponsible of treatment centers to ask you to give information in this way and that it may be simple ignorance about cyberspace on their part, but if it isn’t and they are just being careless what does that say about the records they generally keep?
Okay, more tomorrow.
