Residential / inpatientMedical detoxAbout medical detox
Medical detox is supervised withdrawal from alcohol or drugs, with doctors and nurses who can treat symptoms as they come. It is the safest way to stop alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids, where withdrawal can be severe or even dangerous.
Detox usually lasts 3 to 10 days. It is the first step, not the whole treatment, so a good detox program plans your transfer to residential or outpatient care before you leave.
What to expect
- Physician oversight for alcohol, benzodiazepine or opioid withdrawal
- A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care
- Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
- Symptom monitoring several times a day
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 West Perrine 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
How do I get into medical detox near West Perrine?
Most admissions start with a phone call. A specialist asks a few questions about substance use, health and insurance, then helps you find a program with an opening. Many residential programs in Florida can admit someone within a day or two once insurance is verified.
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.
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.
