Lightshare Behavioral Wellness & Recovery
About Lightshare Behavioral Wellness & Recovery
Known for its pristine white sand beaches, Sarasota, Florida, is also home to Lightshare Behavioral Wellness & Recovery. This treatment center has provided addiction and mental health disorder treatment for over 50 years. You can access an inpatient medically monitored detox program for voluntary and involuntary adults as well as multiple levels of care.
They strive to provide affordable care, accepting commercial insurance, Medicaid, and self pay. You may also be eligible for a funded bed based on your situation.
Compassionate Care for Expectant Mothers
What stands out most to me is their mothers and infants program. This long term residential track provides tailored care for pregnant women battling addiction or dual diagnosis. You’ll benefit from ongoing support to build a better future for you and your baby.
Medication Assisted Treatment
Another thing that caught my eye was that they offer medication assisted treatment (MAT). If you’re struggling with opioid addiction, they prescribe FDA approved medications like naltrexone and buprenorphine to ease withdrawal symptoms. Then, you can focus solely on getting to the root of addiction to promote long term recovery.
Recreational Therapy
I also think it’s great that they have recreational therapy. You’ll benefit from discovering new ways to have sober fun to support your journey.
