Verified by Psychology TodayMedical detox is the supervised clinical management of withdrawal from drugs or alcohol. It isn't a cure for addiction; it's the necessary first step that brings the body to physical stability so the deeper work of recovery can safely begin.
Withdrawal differs by substance. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can cause life-threatening seizures and cardiac instability, while opioid withdrawal, though rarely fatal in healthy adults, brings severe suffering that drives many people to relapse within days. Each requires its own clinical protocol.
At Still Detox, a Medical Director evaluates you in person within 24 hours, vital signs are monitored every four hours, and withdrawal is managed with comfort-focused, individualized taper schedules in a calm, 14-bed private setting rather than a crowded hospital ward.
Concierge-level medical care without the hospital setting, where you're a person in recovery, not a number on a chart.
Round-the-clock nursing coverage with a minimum 1:7 detox staff ratio. Our Medical Director performs a full history and physical within 24 hours of admission.
Located on the University Hospital campus, adjacent to Boca Regional Hospital — emergency services are immediately available if ever needed.
Private rooms available, comfortable accommodations, professional catering, and an individualized comfort-care approach during acute withdrawal.
Unlike most facilities, we fully accommodate legitimate service animals — dogs and cats — so you never have to choose between recovery and your companion.
Every member of our team, from behavioral health techs to the Medical Director, is fluent in English and Spanish, with full treatment available in Spanish.
Detox steps directly into residential treatment around day 8. No changing facilities, no losing your clinical team, no starting your intake over
People come to Still Detox at their most vulnerable. Here's what they say about the care, the staff, and their recovery.
Our clinical team manages every major withdrawal syndrome with protocols calibrated to your substance, dependence level, and medical history, not a one-size-fits-all standard.
These substances carry medical risk during withdrawal and require monitored, physician-guided tapering.
These substances don't require a medical taper, so clients can often be admitted directly into stabilization and care.
Alcohol withdrawal follows a largely predictable medical timeline, though severity depends on drinking history, age, overall health, and prior withdrawal episodes. "Kindling," where each successive withdrawal grows more severe, is one of the most important reasons not to detox from alcohol alone.
Anxiety, tremor, sweating, nausea, headache, elevated heart rate, and insomnia. Uncomfortable but generally not yet dangerous. Our team begins formal withdrawal assessment using validated tools.
The most clinically significant window. Seizure risk peaks here. Clients receive continuous monitoring and medication management calibrated to their assessment scores.
Delirium tremens can develop: severe confusion, hallucinations, and cardiovascular instability. Untreated, DTs carry a mortality rate up to 15%; with proper medical management, under 1%.
Acute symptoms substantially diminish within 72–96 hours. The transition to residential programming begins when clinical stability is established, typically around day 8.
Knowing what to expect removes one of the biggest barriers to picking up the phone. Here's exactly how it works.
Your admissions representative gathers your history, verifies your out-of-network benefits, and coordinates everything from travel to childcare and pet care.
A pre-admission call within three days of your date covers your full substance-use and medical history so we're ready the moment you arrive.
You're met by a nurse and tech together. Document signing, physical assessment, and baseline vitals happen in your first hours.
Within 24 hours the Medical Director completes a full history and physical, and your individualized taper and treatment plan are established.
Comfort care during acute withdrawal, with vital signs monitored every four hours over a typical 7–10 day stay.
Around day 8 you transition directly into residential treatment — same team, same campus, no restarting your recovery.
These are real before-and-after moments from people who completed treatment and embraced lasting sobriety. Each one reflects more than a physical change; it's the renewed purpose, strength, and hope that recovery makes possible.
For anyone with moderate-to-severe dependence, home detox risks grand mal seizures and delirium tremens. There's no reliable way to self-assess seizure risk without a physician.
Abrupt discontinuation after significant dependence can trigger seizures within 24–72 hours. Benzo withdrawal requires a carefully managed taper, not willpower.
Rarely fatal in healthy adults, but unsupported attempts fail at very high rates — and relapsing after even brief abstinence sharply raises overdose risk as tolerance drops.
Still Detox is an out-of-network provider for most insurance plans. Many clients with PPO plans that include strong out-of-network benefits are able to use that coverage toward medical detox. Our admissions team verifies your specific out-of-network benefits at no cost and with no obligation, so you know what to expect before you commit.
We'll confirm what your plan covers, walk you through any out-of-pocket responsibility, and explain flexible payment options, including payment plans and promissory arrangements, so cost never becomes a reason to wait on care.

Recovery is easier in comfort. Our facility pairs clinical excellence with the kind of environment that helps the body and mind settle.
We accept pregnancies through the second trimester with appropriate medical monitoring — where many facilities refuse even the first trimester.
Experience caring for clients with active cancer, late-stage cirrhosis, seizure disorders, and age-related complex medical needs.
Integrated treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions, plus Medication-Assisted Treatment as a specialized program component.
Medical detox is the beginning. Our team is on-site around the clock, admissions are available now for a same-day assessment, and a full continuum of residential care is waiting on the other side of detox — a real foundation for lasting recovery, not just a few managed days.
We're here 24/7. Speak with admissions, confidentially and with no obligation.
