Intervention Services At Sunrise Detox Fort Lauderdale

When you and other family and friends are worried about a loved one with alcohol or drug use disorder, you may want to arrange an intervention. During an intervention, important individuals in your loved one’s life talk about how the drug or alcohol addiction has an adverse influence on everyone around them. You will also want to communicate consequences if they choose not to go through detox and rehab.

If performed correctly, interventions are able to prompt the member of your family to get help. Sunrise Detox Fort Lauderdale helps plan and implement fruitful interventions under the guidance of specialized interventionists. It’s highly recommended to use knowledgeable interventionists who are able to help you make a proper plan of action and drive the communications with the person who needs help. And if they decide to begin treatment, you are able to call us to reserve a room at our detox facility quickly or help you find other suitable treatment.

What You Should Know About Alcohol And Drug Detox At Sunrise

Sunrise Detox Fort Lauderdale understands our patients have people at home who care about them and wish for them to get the highest level of support at our detox center in Fort Lauderdale. That’s why we individualize our treatment to your family member’s issues and are straightforward about what you can anticipate from us.

Our residents have the most success if they can focus completely on detoxing away from exterior forces. We also make patient privacy a leading concern. Due to these reasons, we forbid guests at our location. However, your loved one will have the chance to make a call with permission from a staff member, and we also communicate with you regularly.

Shortly after admission, we get approval to call the family to discuss interpersonal relationships and how they impact and are impacted by alcohol or substance use. After that, we make daily phone calls to the emergency contact to keep them informed with reports on how things are going and to answer questions. During your loved one’s time in our facility, our expert clinicians and caregivers support them with custom-tailored healthcare services and keep them comfortable with modern accommodations and chef-made meals.

How We Help Families With A Loved One Going Through Detox

When our professionals talk to an approved contact about their loved one, we also discuss how friends and family can provide support once they return home. We allow you to take an active role in their aftercare strategy and provide recommendations for assisting them in getting further treatment. We’ll also review how your family can cope with the difficulties of having a person close to you in detox and drug and alcohol use recovery. We know that our patients have a greater chance of success if they have plenty of support, and we will help you determine the best ways to support them.
