Telehealth Rehabilitation Services Near Fort Lauderdale and Miami

As the U.S. continues to be mindful of the number of COVID-19 patients, many people are wondering how they are supposed to get the healthcare services they need. You’re still able to go into a doctor’s office, but why risk it when you can do that consultation from home?

Enter telehealth. Also known as telemedicine, this approach to healthcare creates the opportunity for you to work with doctors, therapists, and other medical professional either over the phone or online for some of your appointments.

Recovery First Treatment Center in Hollywood, Florida, recently adopted telehealth technology for all of its outpatient services in Florida to help reach as many people as possible who are seeking out addiction treatment but cannot travel due to coronavirus restrictions. Read on to learn more about how our telehealth programs work.

Telehealth Services in South Florida at Recovery First

Recovery First is offering telehealth services both to its remote patients and the patients within its facility. For patients who are on site, they can expect the following services to be offered in a virtual setting:

• Inpatient therapy groups.
• Individual counseling sessions.
• Psychiatry services.

These in-facility telehealth services are being offered to protect certain medical staff deemed high-risk for serious complications from the novel virus. With this option, the patient is onsite at the facility and the staff member connects with them virtually in a designated room.

For those who are choosing remote outpatient services from Recovery First, you can expect:

• An assessment at the beginning of treatment.
• Therapy sessions, both one on one with your therapist and in groups.
• Psychoeducational groups on various topics such as relapse prevention.

What You Can Expect from a Telehealth Appointment

Although telemedicine services have been around for a while, it may be your first time using them. Luckily, Recovery First makes it easy to sign up and receive treatment.

You can start the admissions process online or by phone. Our compassionate admissions navigators will walk you through the admissions process and answer any questions you may have.

Once you’ve discussed your treatment options with our admissions navigators and chosen Recovery First for your addiction treatment and care, there are just a couple of steps we’ll guide you through to start your treatment. At this point, you’ll be asked to give us permission to treat you remotely.

From there, we’ll send you a unique access code, which will allow you to sign in for each of your therapy and treatment sessions. You’ll receive an email for every appointment we set to get you into the service.

Why Use Telehealth for Addiction Rehab?

Utilizing telemedicine has many benefits. For example, telemedicine:

1. Eliminates transportation time and costs associated with going to treatment.
2. Saves you time off work.
3. Reduces stress associated with having to find child or elder care when you’re in treatment.
4. Reduces your and your family’s exposure to illness (COVID-19, for example).

When you use Recovery First’s telehealth for addiction rehab, you receive the same level of high-quality care that you do with in-person treatment. Telehealth allows you to conveniently receive the treatment you need from a clinical team committed to your recovery.
