New Inpatient Detox Center in Brooklyn
The Resource Beacon of Hope is an impatient detox center located at 449 – 39th Street (between 4th and 5th Avenue). If you have a friend or family member who is taking heroin and needs to go to a drug rehabilitation facility, this is the place to go to get clean. 718-633-HOPE.
If you are a parent who just found out that your child was using drugs or overdosed and needs help, I think having this inpatient treatment facility nearby is something to consider. Don’t be embarrassed or mad about it, stuff like this happens in life. Your kid is still alive, so get him or her help. I lost a good friend because his family was too proud and ignored the problem. In NYC, 1300 fatally overdosed last year (that’s 3 or 4 people everyday).
It cost $350 a night to stay at this rehab. It sounds like a lot, but you don’t want to be making videos about your loved one like this mother.
Donna Mae DePola, the president of Resource Beacon of Hope opened this facility on March 1, 2017. “We have an opiate epidemic in Sunset Park and Bay Ridge,” said Donna Mae DePola, a Bay Ridgite who runs the addiction-treatment facility and is herself a recovering addict. (See: here)
There are 20 beds for people to get on the road to recovery.
