Detox & Rehab Options Redington Beach, FL
When deciding on a detox and rehab center in Redington Beach, FL, understanding the different treatment options can help you in making an informed decision. Guardian Recovery provides both upper and lower levels of care, holistic, and research based treatment options. Guardian Recovery has worked for years to provide professional services for individuals and families as they engage in recovery.
Intervention
An intervention is the process of helping an individual seek the necessary substance use treatment. It is often initiated by loved ones who share how addiction has impacted them and the substance user’s life. Guardian Recovery partners with professional interventionists to make this process as seamless as possible. It may be difficult for a substance user to want to receive treatment. Professional interventionists are able to provide individuals with information and reassurance to ensure that they are receiving research based and professional care.
Detox
Medical detox is one of the first steps in the recovery process. This step may be uncomfortable, and medication may be provided to alleviate any symptoms associated with withdrawal. Guardian Recovery provides the option of receiving safe detox. Our professional medical staff will monitor and guide you through the medical detox process.
Residential & Inpatient Treatment
Residential inpatient treatment provides a high level of care. Individuals reside full-time at residential inpatient facilities. Each day is full of structured therapeutic and psychoeducation activities. Individual therapy, family therapy, group therapy, recreational therapy, and life skills classes are provided.
Outpatient Treatment
There are various levels of outpatient care. This includes partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and standard outpatient programs.
- Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) — PHP is often attended following medical detox and residential inpatient treatment. Individuals attend treatment about 5 to 6 times per week. Therapeutic activities are similar to that of inpatient when attending a PHP.
- Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) — IOP includes 3 to 5 hours a day of treatment, throughout 3 to 5 days a week. The purpose of IOPs is to aid individuals in adjusting to their newly sober lifestyle.
- Standard Outpatient Programs (OP) — Standard outpatient is often the lowest level of care provided. More independence is provided to clients as they reside at their own home, and can attend sessions weekly, biweekly, or monthly depending on their progress.
MAT & Suboxone
Medicated assisted treatment, or MAT, is the process of using certain medications to ease the negative withdrawal symptoms that may occur. Different medications are used depending on the substance used.
Suboxone and Subutex are two medications that are used for the treatment of opioid use disorder. These medications help relieve the cravings present when someone begins withdrawal. Suboxone and Subutex are effective as they do not produce a high or lead to dependency.
Substance Use Disorder Program Costs in Redington Beach, FL
When finding a substance use disorder program in Redington Beach, FL, it is important to understand the different funding options.
Privately Funded
Privately funded treatment is often the main treatment option for those with private insurance coverage. This funding option allows for more individualized treatment.
Public & State-Funded
Public and state-funded treatment is affordable for individuals who may not be able to afford privately funded options. Though cost effective, they are less personalized. In addition, medical assisted treatment is often emphasized over therapeutic options.
Insurance Based
