From Relapse to Recovery: How Innovative Care Transformed One Patient's Battle with Opioids

Last year, Palm Beach County opened the doors to an innovative public-private partnership...an emergency room at JFK Medical Center North called the Addiction Stabilization Center, or ASU. Patients across the county who overdose are transported to the ASU for evidence-based care. Many of the patients receive a warm handoff to the Health Care District of Palm Beach County's medication assisted treatment program located right on the hospital's campus. We'll talk to a patient who says the care she received from both of these programs brought her from relapse to recovery.
