About Next Step Center

The Next Step Center in suburban Stuart, Florida, supports men with substance use disorders. This halfway home has specialty groups tailored for the needs of professionals and first responders The center started in 1994 and is near the St. Lucie River.

Upon arriving, clients find a welcoming residential home designed to provide a safe and confidential atmosphere with comfortable counseling and group therapy rooms. The halfway home offers space for spiritual and Christian fellowship so you can attend AA meetings and perform chores and other upkeep as you build healthy routines.

A Supportive and Compassionate Care

I really liked that previous clients describe Next Ste[p as supportive, compassionate, and dedicated. Many mention an individualized approach and genuine care from their peers. There is also positive feedback regarding the life skills and coping tools learned during treatment.

Programs are Focused on Flexibility for Clients

Staff emphasize a commitment to “meeting clients where they are” in their recovery journey, while focusing on helping clients “reclaim their lives and build healthy futures.” Group therapy and work therapy are core features. You learn daily living skills, financial management, and gain assistance as you look for work.

Counseling also includes relapse prevention planning and aftercare coordination. There is a focus on long term sobriety with life skills, coping mechanisms, and healthy lifestyle planning. I like that family involvement is encouraged as a part of the healing process. The center works with patients to explore payment and coverage arrangements.

We transferred my mom from another local facility to the Goldton because she wasn’t getting adequate care. It was the best decision we’ve made. Lou, who facilitated the process from beginning to end, provided the level of care, professionalism and attention to detail we had hoped for. The entire staff, especially the caregivers and Lomiah, the team & director of Memory Care, have been impeccable, consistent and HUMAN.

Suzanne, one word in your review means so much to us: HUMAN. 💛 Behind every transition, care plan, conversation, and decision is a person and a family trusting us with someone they love.

Thank you for placing that trust in The Goldton at Stuart. We’re incredibly grateful that Lou helped guide your family through the transition with such care and attention, and that Lomiah, our caregivers, and the Memory Care team have continued to make you feel confident in your decision. We’ll make sure your beautiful recognition reaches every one of them.

I was there recently visiting a family member and I was very pleased with the care they were receiving. I especially liked Rose who came in to clean while I was there. The way she interacted with them was just wonderful. It is always easy to find the problem people but when you find one that makes your loved one feel so special it is heartwarming and worth sharing. Thank you Rose for being who you are.

The community is clean, welcoming, and offers great amenities, engaging activities, delicious meals, and personalized care to meet each resident’s needs. It’s clear that the team goes above and beyond to ensure everyone feels safe, respected, and well cared for. My grandmother just can’t get enough of this place.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug rehab in Florida provides quality treatment to help individuals overcome dependency related to a wide range of addictive substances. Programs address both the physical and mental aspects of addiction in order to help you make a full recovery.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

We had to quickly find an assisted-living facility for my mom upon her discharge from the hospital for a dementia-related incident, and fortunately we found the Goldton at Stuart. We met with Lou for the tour, and he has been a godsend for us, helping us in every way possible every step of the way. I cannot say enough about this young man! My mom absolutely loves the Goldton. Every time I talk with her, she is raving about how friendly, kind, and helpful the staff and residents are, and how delicious and plentiful the food is. She is enjoying the activities and live music and is proud to show her visitors her new home. She has only been there for two weeks, and I’m hoping she continues to love it. Her quality of life has improved tremendously, as she was living alone and feeling isolated. She’s a very social person, so this is working out very well.

One of the drivers for the assisted living center parked in the fire lane at Publix to conduct personal business. When he was told that it was against the law he said he had to pick up wheelchair patients. He was inside cashing a lotto ticket. Confirmed with Stuart PD, there are no exceptions for parking in a fire lane. I attempted to address this with Goldton and was treated poorly and dismissed. I was told to call Stuart PD which I did who confirmed there are No Exceptions to this law. Goldton assisted living center drivers parking in fire lanes. Why do we have laws if people blatantly don't follow them? To use Seniors as an excuse is shameful.
