What happens
after you leave.
Residential is where the work starts. Before discharge we build a plan with partner outpatient programs, sober living and clinicians in your home state, so the care started at Pines continues without a gap.

We do two things. Then we hand off to people who do the next part.
Pines offers two levels of care: medical detox and residential inpatient. Outpatient care, PHP, IOP and sober living come from partner programs we refer to and know well.
Discharge planning begins in week two of residential, not the day before you leave. Your case manager looks at where you are going home to, what resources exist there, what insurance will cover, what your clinical needs are and what your family situation supports. Then we match you with a program that fits.
The next step, matched to the person.
Most intensive outpatient level. 5 to 6 days per week, ~6 hours per day. Appropriate for patients leaving residential who need continued structure without 24/7 care.
3 to 5 sessions per week, 3 hours per session. Lets patients return to work or family life while continuing therapy. Common step-down from PHP or direct from residential.
Weekly or bi-weekly individual therapy. Appropriate for patients with strong stable footing who need ongoing clinical support.
Structured sober-living homes with peer support, house rules, and curfews. Often paired with outpatient programming.
If you came to Pines from another state, we coordinate with psychiatrists and therapists near your home so care does not break the week you get back.
For patients on buprenorphine or other FDA-approved medications for substance use disorder, we arrange prescribing-provider handoff before discharge.
Connection past discharge. We stay in touch.
A phone call.
Our alumni team calls at 30 days after discharge. It is a conversation, not a survey. If something is off, we help you get back into the right services.
Still checking in.
Another check-in at 90 days, a hard window in early recovery. Often it is a therapist who is not clicking, a medication question or a strain at home.
Community that lasts.
Alumni events, peer support groups and ongoing community for anyone who has completed treatment at Pines. Learn about the alumni program
Physician-led, accredited, and built for unhurried care.
Families weigh credentials, coverage and what happens after discharge. Those are the reasons patients choose our 18,000 sq ft private clinical campus in Pembroke Pines, Florida.
Medical Director Sergey Litvinov, MD, a board-certified psychiatrist, directs clinical care. Every patient is reviewed by an attending physician, not a counselor signing off on a protocol.
The Joint Commission accredits Pines independently and surveys the program against its safety and quality standards.
LegitScript certification is what Google, Microsoft, and Meta require before an addiction treatment provider can advertise with them. It means an outside audit of how the facility operates.
Depression, anxiety, trauma, and ADHD frequently co-occur with substance use. Psychiatric assessment and care run alongside detox from the first day.
Most commercial and military plans are accepted. Verification is free, confidential, and typically completed in under 60 seconds.
Private bedrooms, a dedicated medical detox wing, therapy rooms sized for real clinical work, and outdoor grounds.

From the first call through aftercare.
Care at Pines runs as one coordinated pathway. It begins on the admissions call and continues through detox, residential and the handoff to aftercare partners. Each phase has named owners: the admissions counselor, the attending physician, the primary therapist, the case manager and the alumni coordinator, each with responsibilities documented in the patient’s chart.
Family members get support in parallel. With patient consent, our family liaison gives regular updates, schedules family therapy and helps prepare for visitation weekends and aftercare. Without consent, family education, crisis-line referrals and Al-Anon and Nar-Anon resources stay available so families are not left on their own.
Aftercare is planned during residential, not at discharge. The case manager identifies step-down providers (PHP, IOP, sober living, outpatient therapy, MOUD prescribers) based on home location, insurance and clinical recommendation. Pines keeps working relationships with vetted partner programs across our priority states, so a discharge goes to a named provider you can call.
All communication, charting and data handling is HIPAA compliant. Substance use disorder records get extra federal protection under 42 CFR Part 2, which limits redisclosure even inside healthcare settings. You can put privacy preferences in writing at any point in care, and our team honors them across the admissions, clinical and alumni systems.
Insurance for aftercare, verified on your behalf.
Aftercare coverage varies from residential coverage. Our case managers verify what your plan will pay for step-down care so there are no surprises on discharge day.
