Detox of South Florida

DSF is a Detox program with a capacity of 36, that believes detoxification involves much more than simply medically withdrawing a patient from alcohol or other drugs.. The client’s  length of treatment varies as per individual needs and the treatment is altered to the client’s needs. DSF provides a structured group treatment setting with 24 hours per day, 7 days per week supervision for clients who have major skill deficits in activities of daily living and independent living, and are in need of intensive staff supervision, support and assistance.

DSF provides 24-hour supervision, observation, and support for patients who are intoxicated or experiencing withdrawals. The primary emphasis is placed on ensuring that the patients are medically stable (including the initiation and tapering of medications used for the treatment of substance use withdrawal); assessing for adequate bio-psychosocial stability, quickly intervening to establish this adequately; and facilitating effective linkage to and engagement in other appropriate inpatient and outpatient services.
