Florida Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers

Natural wonders, tropical rambles, breathtaking attractions, and theme parks are often what come to mind when one thinks of Florida, the Sunshine State, but what many don’t know is that Florida is also home to some of the most luxurious and therapeutic recovery centers.

Over 18,000 people were admitted into rehab in Florida for opioids and/or alcohol abuse in 2018. With over 700 drug rehab facilities, Florida offers many options to anyone looking to receive recovery treatment – whether inpatient or outpatient, Florida’s rehabilitation centers can help you find the best treatment for you.

At Riverside Recovery, we offer an individualized approach to substance abuse treatment. We provide every level of care–under one roof. From medical detox programs to inpatient and outpatient treatment, we’ll meet you wherever you are on your journey of recovery.

Florida’s more than 1,300 miles of coastline, sugar-sand beaches, and azure water make for the perfect environment to begin recovery. Its tranquil Gulf Coast beaches are among the nation’s most highly ranked, providing unparalleled sunset views, various lakes and tributaries, and 20 state parks – a great backdrop for substance abuse treatment ranging from outdoor yoga to equine and aquatic therapy.

At Riverside Recovery, we understand that choosing an addiction treatment center is not an easy decision. It can be hard to figure out the best rehab program for your substance use disorder because there are so many different options available and no two programs are exactly alike. 

It’s important in your search for the right addiction treatment that you keep in mind factors like location, treatment approach, programs offered at a specific facility, and costs when it comes to an ideal rehabilitation program. Some factors to consider when searching for a drug and alcohol rehab include:

Medical Detox in Florida

Beginning recovery from substance abuse can be a challenging and dangerous process alone. Trying to detox on your own or with the help of an at-home detox product may only prolong your chances of true recovery. You or your loved one may be advised to attend a medical detox program first that will help keep them comfortable, stable, and safe during the withdrawal process. 

Inpatient Drug Rehab in Florida

Inpatient programs in Florida, like many other states, offer a range of different levels of care, from short-term residential treatment to longer-term. These programs address the needs of the whole person while also providing a distraction-free space focused entirely on healing.

Short-term residential programs provide intensive but relatively brief treatment based on a modified 12-step approach. Long-term residential treatment, however, provides 24-hour care and focuses on the ‘resocialization’ aspect of recovery, providing clients with full access to the program’s entire community. Treatment typically focuses on developing personal accountability and responsibility with activities designed to help residents examine damaging beliefs, self-concepts, and destructive patterns of behavior, and adopt new more harmonious, and constructive ways to interact with others.

These programs often focus on:

Inpatient/Residential programs offer a range of different levels of care, from short-term residential treatment to longer-term stays. Residential treatment addresses the needs of the whole person while also providing a distraction-free space focused entirely on healing.

Outpatient Addiction Treatment in Florida

Outpatient programs are an excellent option if you do not need intensive care and can maintain stability during substance abuse rehabilitation. Outpatient addiction treatment allows you to learn how to manage your substance abuse disorder and get back to work, school, or family life.

It’s important to carefully consider your options when deciding which treatment program fits best. Always seek an evaluation from a medical, mental health, or substance abuse professional before entering into a program.

Outpatient programs in Florida include:

  • day/night treatment or partial hospitalization programs (PHPs)
  • intensive outpatient programs (IOPs)
  • outpatient programs

Florida Inpatient vs. Outpatient

While inpatient facilities offer essential, full-time support, many residents have different circumstances that might make it difficult to commit to a full-time regimen. The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) identifies five levels of care in treating alcohol and drug use disorders:

Outpatient rehab options offer patients the opportunity to receive lower levels of care than residential and inpatient treatment while still participating in an effective drug rehab program.

Like inpatient treatment, outpatient treatment can have various approaches to the types and intensity of services provided. It also often costs less than residential or inpatient treatment and might be a more suitable option for people who are employed or have extensive social support. Group therapy is often a major component of outpatient programs.
