Q&A's | Fort Lauderdale, FL | Serenity Oaks Wellness

What are the benefits of residential addiction treatment?

There are many reasons why residential treatment might be the right choice for you or a loved one. First, a residential program takes the individual out of their daily routine, so the focus becomes solely on treatment and recovery. The regular structure further enhances the ability to zero in on overcoming addiction. With daily counseling, ongoing support by professionals and peers and less temptation to drink or use, clients undergoing residential treatment tend to have the highest odds of success.

Do I have to live in Florida to go to Serenity Oaks Wellness Center?

Serenity Oaks Wellness Center accepts clients from all over the United States and does not limit their services to Florida residents. In fact, some of our clients find it is beneficial to go out of state for treatment since it allows them greater anonymity and gives them the opportunity to undergo their program in a location with a temperate climate that allows for outdoor activities all year long.

What is the cost of treatment? Does insurance cover the expense?

The cost of treatment varies based on different factors, but most of our clients find Serenity Oaks Wellness Center is relatively affordable compared to other residential treatment centers. Insurance providers are required under law to cover at least a portion of addiction treatment under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). You will need to talk to your insurance carrier to find out how much coverage you have available. We are also ready to work with our clients’ insurance companies to ensure they receive all the coverage they should according to their policy.

What is the admission process like?

The admission process is often the most intimidating part of the process for those seeking addiction treatment. At Serenity Oaks Wellness Center, we strive to make this initial portion of the program as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Once we have collected your preliminary information, we will make all the arrangements necessary to get you to our facility and get your treatment underway. Check out our admission page for details on what we will ask you to provide during the admission process.

What should I pack for my stay with you?

We want you to be relaxed and comfortable during your time at our facility, so we provide a packing list of recommended items to make this transition as smooth and easy as possible. We encourage you to bring the things that will make you feel at home while you are with us. However, there are a few restricted items as well, which are listed on our Packing List page to guide you as you prepare for your treatment process.

How long will I be there?

Serenity Oaks Wellness Center offers a structured and intense five-week program designed to cover every aspect of addiction. This set schedule allows our clients to plan for the time they will spend in our facility.

What will my treatment include?

A day of treatment might include a broad range of medical, psychological and recreational therapies, depending on the specific needs of each of our clients. At Serenity Oaks Wellness Center, we cater our treatment programs to the unique needs of each of our clients, so your plan might look a bit different from the one we do for your roommate. However, all treatment programs will include individual and group counseling, family therapy and a broad array of holist therapies, including yoga, acupuncture and meditation.

Is my family allowed to visit?

Addiction takes its toll on the family as well as the individual, so involving the family in the therapy process is a crucial factor in its success. During the fourth week of your program at Serenity Oaks Wellness Center, we strive to facilitate new boundaries, stop enabling behaviors and establish healthy lines of communication within the family unit to build a healthy support network and improve the odds of long-term recovery.
