In medical detox, staff watch your vital signs, manage symptoms with medication and keep you safe and comfortable while your body clears the substance. Programs may be hospital-based or in a licensed residential detox unit.
Many Florida residential programs have detox on site, so you can move straight into treatment without a gap.
What to expect
- Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long

- A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care
- Counseling to start treatment planning
Florida resources for families
If a loved one refuses help and is a danger to themselves or others, Florida's Marchman Act lets families ask the court for involuntary assessment and treatment. Petitions for Opa-locka residents are filed in Miami-Dade County; see how to file a Marchman Act in Miami-Dade County.
You can verify whether a Florida provider is licensed using DCF's Substance Use Disorder Licensing and Designation Search at https://sudprovidersearch.myflfamilies.com/, which DCF says is intended for licensing verification and transparency.

Frequently asked questions
Can someone from another state come to Opa-locka 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 if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Florida, the Marchman Act also lets family members petition a court for involuntary assessment and treatment when someone has lost control of their substance use and is a danger to themselves or others. See our Marchman Act guide for Miami-Dade County.
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.
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.
