Panamanian Luxury Drug Rehab Launches American-Canadian Expat Program

BOQUETE, Panama - April 4, 2014 - PRLog -- Boquete, Panama’s Serenity Vista Residential Addiction Treatment Center has announced a new drug and alcohol rehab program aimed at accommodating the unique needs of American and Canadian Expats including professionals, retirees, immigrants and international travellers.  Established to serve the growing needs of English speaking expatriates (often abbreviated to 'expat' or 'ex-pat') and residents of Panama and Costa Rica, the program officially launched early March 2014.

Established in response to the ever-growing need for high-end, luxury treatment for those of English speaking nationalities, the program is modeled after American and Canadian protocols focusing on holistic, 12-step and therapeutic best practice approaches.  The concept merges a substantially lower cost of care with modern elegance, privacy and most importantly, a highly experienced clinical staff.  Says Serenity Vista Director, John Derry, “Having made the expat journey myself from Canada, I've experienced first hand that the need is all too clear and it actually extends far beyond the borders of Costa Rica and Panama.”

Serenity Vista is beginning its second successful year in Panama, having attracted international clients primarily from North America. It became evident that there is a growing expat English speaking retirement community in Central America that needs such services. However, to date, they have been largely unaware of this world class facility operating to North American highest standards locally, right in Panama. "Drinking can become a problem for some retiring expats who enjoy afternoon cocktails as they may have done in the past on a 7 day vacation or cruise, but when it becomes their new lifestyle in the tropics, the vacation never ends, and neither does the drinking," explains Derry.

The program offers residential treatment for age groups spanning 50's through 70’s and 80’s, and includes young adult children who are also prone to developing a pattern of regular alcohol or marijuana drug use in their new home in the Caribbean. The program offers English speaking integrative rehabilitation for drug addiction, alcoholism and even a holistically based nicotine cessation program.  The focus of this launch plan is slated to initially reach expat residents in Costa Rica and Panama, however is expected to reach throughout Central as well as South America and Europe.

States Derry in closing, “The core Expat and English Immigrant Program offers residential options ranging from 6 weeks to 3 months, and I imagine its draw will likely result in some folks choosing to relocate nearby and possibly remain longer in beautiful Boquete of Panama.”

Serenity Vista offers staff on-hand 24/7 and can be reached toll-free worldwide at (800) 919-8023.  Additional information on this and other program options may be viewed on the company website at http://www.serenityvista.com.
