These treatments typically target the dependency on certain psychoactive substances such as alcohol, prescription medicines, and what are commonly referred to as “street” drugs. According to the DEA and public health officials, these primary street drugs include:
Other substances, namely illegally trafficked opiate-based painkillers and certain psych meds such as benzodiazepines have become a part of the addiction problem as well as MDMA’s (club or date-rape drugs) such as Ecstasy. Most Florida rehab centers offer programs that target all of the aforementioned substances. However, that is where any similarities between these rehab programs cease.
There are two basic categories of Florida rehab facilities – the traditional and the alternative (a.k.a. residential) facilities. Both have the same goals with their addiction treatment and recovery programs. However, they pursue those goals in completely different fashion.
Traditional Florida rehab facilities – these addiction treatment and recovery centers typically rely on conventional therapies which most of the alternative facilities feel are out of date and ineffectual. They are clinical or hospital like in appearance which can be extremely intimidating to the addicted individual.
Alternative or residential Florida rehab facilities – these facilities are designed and styled like residences such as apartments, condos, or dormitories. They enable their clients to recover in a homelike setting complete with many of the amenities they are used to in their own homes. They employ addiction treatment and recovery therapies that are more modern and innovative, and offer the client a higher chance for total recovery.
If you or a loved one is in need of a Florida rehab program, we can provide you with the most affordable and highest quality addiction treatment and recovery programs anywhere in the state. However, we welcome clients from anywhere in the US should they choose to be away from their communities during the addiction treatment and recovery process.
