    I don’t want anyone to find out I’m in detox. Is that a problem?

    At Palm Beach Detox and Wellness, our facility caters to high profile individuals, such as business leaders, athletes and socialites. Discretion and patient privacy are of the utmost importance to our program. As a result, we understand the need for privacy during the detox process. Our Recovery and Wellness team members are trained to treat all of our patients with dignity, respect and discretion, and our facility is designed to help maintain your privacy.

    Will you help with an aftercare plan?

    We will customize each patient’s after-care plan, just like we customize their detox and wellness plan. The Palm Beach Detox and Wellness Institute staff will have a meeting with the patient and any loved ones prior to discharge to tailor a treatment plan which is specific to their needs. For some patients, transitioning to a residential treatment facility may be appropriate.  However, we understand that, for some individuals, alternate options may be preferred.  Our team will work closely with you to devise a customized transitional care strategy that may include regular follow-up with our Addiction Medicine physician, our Recovery and Wellness Coach, as well as psychotherapy and wellness services, The staff will even go as far as bringing the patient to local twelve step, SMART, or Refuge Recovery Meetings. Each patient has different wants and needs, and we are here to create an aftercare plan together specifically for that individual.

    I am a business professional and I cannot take time off of work. Can I still work while in your facility?

    Yes, of course you can work from the facility. You have access to high speed Wi-Fi from your room, you can bring your cell phone, and you will have a desk and comfortable chair in your room to work from. We also have a workstation in the Atrium Lounge. We will honor any work accommodations you need upon request. We accommodate the needs of high-profile individuals, executives and professionals providing an environment where you can continue business as usual while receiving treatment services.
