Residential / inpatientLong-term residentialDual diagnosisWhat 90-day rehab involves
Long-term residential treatment of around 90 days lets recovery become a routine rather than a short break. You have time to rebuild sleep, health and relationships while staying in a structured, substance-free setting.
Some programs phase into supportive housing or outpatient care toward the end of the stay.
What to expect
- Family sessions and discharge planning near the end
- Options to extend or step down based on progress
- A full therapy schedule through the middle weeks
- Detox and stabilization in the first week if needed

Frequently asked questions
What if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Florida, the Marchman Act also lets family members petition a court for involuntary assessment and treatment when someone has lost control of their substance use and is a danger to themselves or others. See our Marchman Act guide for Alachua County.
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
Are 90-day programs more effective?
Longer time in treatment is linked with better outcomes in addiction research, and many clinicians recommend at least 90 days of total treatment, which can combine residential and outpatient care.
What happens in the last month of a 90-day program?
The final weeks usually add more independence: passes, work or school planning, family sessions and a detailed aftercare plan.
