Frequently asked questions
Can someone from another state come to Cocoa West for treatment?
Yes. Florida programs regularly admit people from other states. Many out-of-state commercial plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield plans through the BlueCard program, can be used at in-network Florida providers. Verify benefits first.
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
How long does medical detox take?
Detox usually takes 3 to 10 days, depending on the substance, how much and how long you have used, and your health. Alcohol and benzodiazepine detox can take longer and needs close supervision.
Is detox enough on its own?
Detox manages withdrawal but does not treat addiction itself. The best results come when detox leads straight into residential or outpatient treatment.
