South Florida provides an ideal setting for deep healing from addiction. The year-round warmth and ocean breeze invite those who feel it to slow down and and turn their gaze inward. Residential addiction treatment centers like our Florida alcohol and drug rehab center build on this environment to bring expert care to those who seek the support of a guided path to recovery.
The 60 to 90+ day residential drug rehab program at Boca Pompano is structured and comprehensive. Its extended length allows the seeds of recovery to be planted and take root, enabling not just change but true growth to take place. This often involves a combination of 30 - 45 days of traditional inpatient rehab, with ongoing outpatient or intensive outpatient services to support long-term sobriety.
Who Should Consider Florida Long-Term Inpatient Rehab?
Those who have experienced multiple relapses and want to give their body, mind and soul the time they need to mend may wish to consider Boca Recovery Center’s long-term residential substance abuse treatment program.
People with trauma or other forms of extraordinary stress may wish for an extended period of healing. People who know they will have major challenges to return to may benefit from being further into recovery before returning to them. For them, a stay in long-term drug rehab may be ideal.
Long-term addiction treatment allows not just for learning but true restoration and growth. The longer time span allows recovery to take hold more firmly, giving it the start it needs to develop more robustly. It’s an investment in your own potential.
Boca Recovery Center offers a seamless transition into specialized programs that strengthen long-term recovery. Clients can explore focused care through our opioid rehab services or receive comprehensive alcohol-focused treatment at our dedicated alcohol rehab program. For those managing both addiction and mental health conditions, our integrated dual diagnosis treatment ensures that underlying emotional or psychological concerns are addressed alongside substance use. Professionals and individuals needing heightened privacy or flexibility can also benefit from our tailored executive rehab services, all designed to complement the progress made in long-term rehab in Florida and support lasting stability at our Pompano Beach rehab center.
Services
Your days in beautiful Boca Pompano will be filled with didactic and experiential learning activities that will facilitate recovery and rebuilding. Our addiction treatment services and facilities contribute to wellness by surrounding you with comfort while you grow free from the life-draining influence of chemicals.
Most of our long-term inpatient clients will complete 30 - 45 days of residential treatment to get through the initial detox and withdrawal. Once you complete your initial stay at Boca Pompano’s long-term residential rehab facility, you can enter the next stages of your treatment. Our aftercare services are tailored to your needs and meet you exactly where you’re at in your recovery journey.
Programming happens in individual and group formats where you learn about the root causes of addiction and how they apply to you. Our sessions are led by expert staff who use evidence based therapies to facilitate your growth.
Holistic therapies and activities such as yoga, fitness and meditation help you learn to integrate your understanding of your physical and mental health.
Our luxury Florida rehab center offers gourmet meals provide the nourishment you need to flourish. Therapeutic leisure activities show you how to relax and enjoy your life in recovery. Private rooms allow you to decompress at the end of your day.
Most clients step down from our residential facility into more flexible options, such as our partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP) and general outpatient (OP) programs.
Our PHP program is our most intensive outpatient program and includes up to 30 hours of treatment each week. You may participate in individual, group, or family therapy, medication management, life skills training, and educational classes. Our IOP includes the same services but is less time-intensive, only requiring around nine to 20 hours of weekly treatment.
Relapse prevention and life skills training give you the opportunity to learn and practice the skills you will use to remain oriented toward recovery when challenges confront you. Ongoing outpatient therapy provides continuing aftercare to help you stay strong long after you initial inpatient treatment is completed.
