Preferred Family Healthcare St. Louis Dunnica Sobering Support Center

About this facility

The center offers a safe, short-term place for adults who are drunk or high on drugs. It helps people 18 and older who can walk and follow basic directions, and who aren’t violent. This 12-bed unit gives them a chance to rest, get snacks, take a shower, and begin to recover in a calm setting. The goal is to get through the crisis and find the next step in care. Each visit focuses on safety and support. Staff members guide guests through the early hours of withdrawal, answer questions, and connect them to long-term treatment if needed. The environment is simple and peaceful, giving people a break from the chaos. Whether someone is ready to make a change or just needs a safe place for now, the center helps with both care and direction.
