Coastal Detox offers detoxification services to ensure individuals are successful in overcoming their physical dependence on drugs or alcohol. These crucial parts of treatment help the individual focus only on recovery without worrying about cravings for substances. Withdrawal symptoms can be lethal, so it’s essential medical professionals oversee these processes to prevent relapse within an addict’s family circle due to discomfort experienced during withdrawal periods from substance abuse.
Coastal Detox is a leader in the treatment of addiction. With an expert medical team and counselors, our facility helps clients work through detox with leading-edge treatments and therapies, making it a very comfortable experience. While in residential detox, individuals may receive medications to help them recover from addiction.
Residential Medical Detox
We offer medical detox in South Florida for drug and alcohol addiction. Our program is supervised by doctors, nurses, and therapists who provide 24/7 support. Our patients receive the right level of care at all times during substance abuse withdrawal symptoms.
The unique needs of each patient are assessed through a comprehensive intake process. This helps guide our team in creating a personalized medical detox treatment tailored to suit every case uniquely. Our medical detox protocol makes detoxing a comfortable, safe, and practical experience.
Addictions Our Residential Detox Program Specializes in Treating
Many people who struggle with substance abuse have mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Our detox center is staffed by professionals who understand the unique challenges faced by those living with these conditions to ensure they get help for both problems at once.
What Can I Expect During Residential Detox?
When you first enter the program, we develop a treatment plan for your individual needs to help with any concerns about potential symptoms or how long it will take before you’re done.
The Residential Detox Process
- A comprehensive evaluation during the intake or assessment process
- Stabilization of current medical conditions utilizing medication and individual therapy
- Preparation to enter into an addiction treatment program for long-term recovery
At our medical detox center, each hotel-style patient room has comfortable lounge areas with flat-screen TVs and digital cable. Nutritious gourmet meals are also served to help the body heal during withdrawal symptoms.

How Long Does Residential Detox Last?
The typical length of stay for Coastal’s residential detox program can last up to 14 days. Our compassionate team of substance abuse treatment professionals creates a customized treatment plan based on each client’s individual needs.
Each client also has continuous access to our highly experienced team of medical professionals. This team includes psychiatrists, doctors, nurses, and behavioral health technicians. This around-the-clock care ensures that each client’s needs are addressed 24/7.
Once finished with residential detox, the next step should be an addiction treatment program that aids in a long-term recovery solution.
How Do Medical Detox Specialists Help at a Residential Detox Center?
We will monitor your vital signs and mental well-being upon your initial intake. This is performed by checking vital signs and speaking with the patient through a psychological assessment. Once it has been determined that medical detox is the best decision for your treatment plan, you will be administered prescription medications to begin the residential detox process.
Coastal Detox is a nationally recognized and accredited detox program. Our team of medical detox professionals has extensive training and has been performing medical detox solutions for an extended time. We operate an around-the-clock medical detox treatment center that can assist patients with any detox withdrawal symptoms that may occur.
Our team is prepared for anything and everything as it pertains to drug and alcohol detox and addiction treatment.
What Types of Withdrawal Symptoms Can I Expect?
Withdrawal symptoms will differ depending on the substance from which you are recovering. Alcohol and drugs such as heroin often require more attention during a detox program. However, it depends on how frequently and for how long a person has used these substances.
Common withdrawal symptoms experienced during medical detox include:
- Sweating
- Muscle aches and body cramps
- Anxiety or nervousness
- Difficulty sleeping
- Irritability
- Lethargy
- Psychosis
- Vomiting/nausea
- Hallucinations
- Shakes or Tremors
- Irregular heartbeat
- Digestive problems
- Extreme mood shifts
- Difficulty thinking or focusing
Due to the intense nature of some of these withdrawal symptoms, it is highly recommended that individuals do not attempt to detox at home. A residential detox center will stabilize individuals accordingly and monitor their well-being for ongoing recovery.
What is the Next Step After Residential Detox
At Coastal Detox, we recommend our clientele attend an inpatient or residential addiction treatment program. Here is where you will work on long-term recovery through various therapy programs. Addiction treatment therapy teaches an individual how to live a life free from substance abuse.
Residential addiction treatment programs are similar to residential detox, as an individual will be surrounded by 24/7 support from addiction treatment specialists. Residential programs have the most significant rate of success in long-term recovery from substance use disorders.
Do I Need an Addiction Treatment Program Once I’m Free of Withdrawal Symptoms?
Yes, you should attend an addiction treatment program after detox. After all, you may be free from psychological symptoms of substance abuse, but psychological ones will still be there. So, while you no longer feel any drug or alcohol withdrawals, the reasons you started abusing drugs or alcohol are still present.
Detox is the first step in getting free from substance abuse. However, an addiction treatment program will help you learn to avoid addictive behaviors. Treatment and therapy programs will help you uncover what made you susceptible to addiction and how you can recognize and avoid those triggers in the future.
Benefits of a Residential Treatment Program in South Florida
- A better chance of completing medical detox protocol
- An immediate/seamless transition from detox level of care to inpatient to inpatient services—which research shows dramatically increases long-term recovery
- Around-the-clock medical and clinical supervision
- A community of support from others in treatment
- No environmental triggers to drink or use drugs
- Higher treatment completion rates (which is also linked with better long-term recovery outcomes)
In some cases, clients are unable to attend a residential treatment program. There are still many excellent outpatient treatment options available.
Outpatient treatment is an excellent option for people who cannot be absent from work or home life for an extended period. This form of addiction treatment offers flexibility in therapy options and allows those enrolled to sleep at home.
Outpatient treatment is generally less expensive than residential treatment. However, your priority should be what’s best for your recovery plan. In many cases, insurance will cover your treatment.
What Types of Therapies are Available in an Addiction Treatment Program?
Depending on where you attend a residential treatment program, therapy options should include some of the following options:
Individual Therapy
One-on-one counseling allows the patient to talk solely with their therapist about things they may not feel comfortable sharing with others. This helps patients process the emotional side of past situations that may have led them to addiction.
Group Therapy
Group counseling takes place in a group meeting setting. Primarily, it is verbal, allowing patients to interact with one another and share stories of their recoveries and experiences while using. This gives the patient support from people going through similar situations.
Trauma Therapy
This type of therapy focuses on understanding how the traumatic events in an addict’s life impacted their addiction. After this type of therapy, a patient should be able to understand their emotional and behavioral responses to certain situations.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT encourages patients to change their destructive patterns of behavior. It is one of the most successful forms of therapy and allows patients to develop problem-solving skills.
Relapse Prevention
It teaches patients about the emotional and environmental triggers that can cause a person with an addiction to relapse. To prevent them from winding up on the same path they were before, they learn what and who to avoid relapse.
Motivational Interviewing
This is similar to CBT. This form of therapy helps motivate patients to modify their behaviors. Therapists encourage patients to recognize their worth and steer clear of behaviors that lead to substance abuse.
Wellness Groups
These groups give patients a creative or physical outlet to focus on besides alcohol or drugs. For instance, they could discover a love for painting, rock climbing, or playing guitar. These activities can also be performed in group settings, enabling people to connect with other individuals going through the same things they are.
Family Therapy
In these programs, family members and the patient can learn a better way to cope with recovery. All parties can share thoughts and feelings on the subject. The program helps to bring family members closer together. This shows that recovering people with an addiction have a long-lasting support system after rehab completion.
Each client will find various treatment therapies as part of an accredited residential treatment program. Licensed clinicians present therapy approaches to help clients learn how to live a healthy, fulfilling, sober life.
Learning How to Recognizing Addiction
Addiction typically isn’t a purposeful thing. A simple choice to “try something once” can become a constant subconscious decision to use continuously. An individual may become addicted to a substance, whether it is drugs, alcohol, or both. Once this occurs, the person might deny that it has even happened.
Often, people who abuse alcohol or drugs will convince themselves that they can stop their use at any point. They may even try to persuade others who confront them about the same situation. In reality, the substance has taken over control of their life. As a result, they have no concept of life without drugs or alcohol.
Recognizing that addiction has occurred is a key first step to choosing how to solve the problem. Our team of medical professionals here at Coastal can help you start your addiction treatment in Florida.
