Background
Erika Boodhoo serves as Chief Financial Officer for RECO Intensive and the medical detox operation at RECO Island. Her financial leadership is what allows RECO Island to maintain the clinical staffing levels, regulatory compliance, and physical infrastructure that medical detox absolutely requires — without compromise.
Medical detox is among the most expensive levels of behavioral health care to deliver well. Erika's job is to make sure RECO Island can keep delivering it well — that the financial frame supports a clinical operation that meets the highest standards rather than one that's been quietly hollowed out.
Approach to Care
Erika's posture toward RECO Island's finances reflects her dual identity as an MBA finance professional and a Certified Addiction Counselor. She knows what's at stake clinically when financial pressure leads programs to cut detox staffing or skip on safety investments. Her standard is that RECO Island's clinical excellence is non-negotiable, and the financial strategy adapts to support it.
She brings extensive experience in healthcare finance, operational optimization, and the regulatory-financial intersection that detox-level care requires. Her leadership has kept RECO Island clinically excellent and financially sustainable over time.
Education & Credentials
Erika earned her MBA at Barry University and holds the CAC (Certified Addiction Counselor) credential from the Florida Certification Board. That combination — formal financial leadership credentials paired with hands-on addiction counseling certification — gives her unusual range in a CFO seat.
What to Expect
RECO Island clients and families don't usually meet the CFO directly — but they're served by her work in every interaction. The reason the medical detox staff are sufficient and qualified. The reason insurance verification works the same day. The reason RECO Island can afford to maintain the accreditations and protocols that genuinely matter for patient safety.
If families ask hard questions about cost, coverage, or financial arrangements at RECO Island, they'll get straight answers — that's the financial transparency Erika's team is built to deliver.
