About

About Detox of South Florida

Detox of South Florida is a medically supervised detox and residential treatment center situated at 608 NE 2nd Ave in Okeechobee, Florida, serving the Okeechobee County area. The facility operates under the Ember Recovery brand and is reachable around the clock, reflecting its commitment to accepting patients whenever the need for withdrawal management becomes urgent. For individuals and families in South Florida facing a substance use crisis, the center represents one of the region’s dedicated inpatient detox options outside of the major metro markets.

The center offers two confirmed levels of care: medical detox and residential treatment. Medical detox is the entry point for individuals whose physical dependence on alcohol or other substances requires supervised withdrawal management before longer-term treatment can begin. Residential treatment follows detox for those who benefit from continued inpatient structure while they stabilize and begin addressing the underlying patterns of addiction and substance use disorder.

Detox of South Florida addresses a defined set of conditions, including addiction, drug addiction, alcohol addiction, substance abuse, and co-occurring mental health struggles alongside substance use disorders. The facility is open 24 hours, meaning clinical staff are present at all times — a meaningful distinction for anyone whose withdrawal symptoms do not follow a 9-to-5 timeline. That round-the-clock availability also positions the center to handle after-hours admissions, which is often when the decision to seek help is made.

The center serves adults dealing with addiction and substance use disorders, as well as those managing co-occurring mental health conditions. Families researching inpatient detox programs in the Okeechobee area or broader South Florida region will find that Detox of South Florida provides both the medical detox entry point and the residential step that typically follows it — two critical phases of care under one roof. Inquiries can be directed to info@emberrecovery.com or by calling (888) 839-1907.

Residential Treatment Following Detox

After completing medical detox, patients at Detox of South Florida have access to residential treatment — an inpatient level of care designed to support continued stabilization and address the behavioral and psychological dimensions of addiction and substance use disorders. Having both levels of care at one facility reduces the disruption that often comes with transitioning between providers mid-treatment.

Residential treatment at the center is appropriate for individuals managing drug addiction, alcohol addiction, and substance abuse, including those with co-occurring mental health struggles. The continuity between detox and residential programming allows clinical teams to maintain familiarity with each patient's withdrawal history as they move into the next phase of care.

Who Detox of South Florida Serves

The center treats adults dealing with addiction, substance use disorders, drug addiction, alcohol addiction, and substance abuse. It also addresses mental health struggles that frequently occur alongside substance dependence — a combination that standard detox-only programs may not be equipped to manage simultaneously.
