Treating Complex Addictions

When addiction has taken over your life or the life of someone you love, there is a place to turn for help and support. The road to recovery begins at the Shands Vista Florida Recovery Center.

With comprehensive treatment and assessment programs for individuals with alcohol and drug abuse or dependence, the Florida Recovery Center has helped so many patients reclaim their lives. Specially trained professionals from various disciplines comprise the treatment team, headed by addiction specialists from the University of Florida College of Medicine.

Shands Vista is a partner in providing these confidential Online Mental Health and Alcohol Awareness Screenings.


Guiding Principles of the Florida Recovery Center

  • Addiction is a brain disease.
  • Addiction affects body, mind and spirit.
  • Addiction damages the family unit.
  • Consequences of addiction impact all relationships and the workplace.
