<p><strong>ABOUT THE FLORIDA CENTER FOR ADDICTIONS AND DUAL DISORDERS</strong></p> <p>Located in Avon Park, Fla., The Florida Center for Addictions and Dual Disorders provides a <strong>specialized, residential treatment program for adults struggling with chemical dependency and co-occurring mental health issues</strong>. Part of Tri-County Human Services, Inc., a nonprofit treatment organization, The Florida Center implements its residential treatment program through a comprehensive phase system.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Before beginning core treatment, clients first participate in an initial substance abuse and psychiatric assessment. During the assessment phase of the program, part of Residential Level I, clients become acclimated with The Florida Center’s <strong>therapeutic community</strong>. While the program’s focus is to treat individuals with a dual diagnosis, the center designates five beds to males with a primary substance abuse disorder.</p> <p>According to the program’s website, The Florida Center “provides up to 63 days of ‘state of the art’ clinical intervention.” Components of the program include <strong>group and individual counseling sessions</strong>, ongoing psychiatric evaluations, recreational therapy, and <strong>medication-assisted therapy</strong> to alleviate symptoms of psychiatric disorders.</p> <p>The transitional phase of the program, or Residential Level III, helps clients to prepare for independent living. During this short-term phase, case managers develop <strong>aftercare plans</strong>, which may include referrals to community resources and sober living facilities. Clients awaiting beds in the program may also utilize the transitional phase to ensure the individual does not relapse between detoxification and core treatment.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Tri-County Human Services, Inc.’s programs employ psychiatrists, licensed professional counselors, licensed clinical social workers, and case managers.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>While no specific information is provided regarding the 55-bed facility’s accommodations, according to Rehabs.com survey data, the seven respondents, provided an average <strong>4.29-star rating for the cleanliness</strong>.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>The six alumni polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing provided <strong>positive ratings for most areas of treatment</strong> including four- and five out of five-star ratings for meals, staff level of training, and overall treatment effectiveness. One anonymous alum described the program as “helpful and active” and alum Daniel wrote, “I left there a completely changed person.”</p> <p>Although some clients reported limited holistic treatment options, three alumni gave <strong>five out of five stars for the overall quality of individual and group treatment</strong>, as well as for the level of staff support.

In addition to highly recommending the center, Sally provided a five-star rating for the program’s co-occurring disorder treatment, staff level of experience, and affordability. “They are kind, caring and do an amazing job dealing with underlying disorders as well as substance abuse,” she wrote, although she added the lack of family participation was a weakness.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Although no information is provided concerning the cost of the residential program, Rehabs.com survey data suggest that The Florida Center provides financial support and alumni reported paying for services through state/federal insurance, self-pay, or a combination of different methods.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/5bMniY" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/5bMniY</a></small></p>
