Residential Detox Fort Lauderdale

What is Residential Rehab?

Residential rehab is an inpatient program in which you move into a rehab facility for a set amount of time, usually 30 to 90 days. Generally, the first step in any rehab program is detoxing, and once you are determined medically stable enough to move on, you begin rehab treatments like therapy, counseling, and educational programs. Your residential rehab program will be customized to best suit you, and help you heal your body, gain new sobriety skills and get to the underlying roots of your addiction, so that you have the best possible chance of staying sober long-term.

Detox at Residential Rehab

Detox is the first step to any effective rehab program. Drug detox and alcohol detox can both produce difficult side effects that can range from uncomfortable to life-threatening, which is why a Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) detox program is important. We can provide you with specific medications, holistic treatments, therapy, and counseling that will help you get through this difficult time as painlessly as possible.

The prescription medications we provide at The Healing Place are FDA-approved and given at small, controlled doses so they will help reduce cravings as you taper off your drug use, without creating a new addiction. Counseling and therapy will help you with any difficult thoughts and emotions that may come up, and we can begin treatment for any co-occurring physical or psychological issues you may have alongside your addiction.

The Benefits of Residential Detox

The benefits of drug detox in the residential facility at The Healing Place include:

• A new environment away from triggers and enablers that may induce relapse
• Medical supervision will keep you safe as your body produces withdrawal symptoms, ensuring you remain as comfortable as possible, so you do not suffer unnecessarily
• Peer support is available if you need it, as there will be other like-minded people around who are going through some of the same things you are
• The structure of a residential detox program will keep your mind off drugs and alcohol so you can focus on healing
• Living in residence will provide you with time to focus on your own wellness as you are removed from your everyday stress and responsibility
• Holistic treatments are provided to help your body, mind and spirit heal

How Long Does Residential Detox Last?

Detox is different for everybody, and the length of a person’s detox program will depend on factors like:

• What drug(s) you are detoxing from
• How long you were using them
• How much you were using at one time
• Whether you were using more than one drug and/or alcohol together
• Your physical and mental health at the time of your detox
• Genetic factors

Some drugs only take a few days to leave your system, and others may have residual effects and withdrawal symptoms that come back weeks or months after detox is over. We can discuss the details about what to expect once we get to know more about you, what you are detoxing from, and your level of addiction.

What Happens After Residential Detox?

After residential detox, Fort Lauderdale residents are strongly encouraged to move directly into a residential rehab program. Although the industry standard is 30 days for residential detox, treatment length is highly dependent on each individual patient. The most important factor for determining how long you should stay in rehab is your comfort level and your confidence in your new recovery skills. Our professional team will work with you the entire time you are with us to help you figure out what timeline will work best for your needs.
