Central Florida Recovery Centers

They offer outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Orlando has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They handle detox for opioids, alcohol and benzodiazepines. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Orlando has 8 other centers to compare.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Orlando it may be mixed.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them about a mile away in Orlando.

They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Orlando.

Mandated treatment is ordinary treatment with reporting attached, and many centers take court referrals as a matter of course. The court usually specifies a level of care or a number of hours, and that narrows which programs qualify. Ask what happens if you miss a session, so you hear it from them first.

The medication review is part of intake, and it is one of the reasons intake asks so many health questions. Pregnancy changes medication decisions substantially and needs specialist input. Ask whether there is a prescriber on site and how soon you would see them.

The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. The stretch after the main program usually runs far longer than the program did, and it is the part people underestimate. Ask whether detox time counts inside the program length or is added to it.
