SalusCare runs a round-the-clock residential detox program for adults in acute alcohol or drug withdrawal, described in Lee County's receiving system plan as the only detox facility serving Lee, Glades and Hendry counties.
Lee County uses a tiered receiving system with multiple entry points rather than a single central receiving center, and the county has no locked adult Marchman Act facility.
