Residential / inpatientDual diagnosisHow inpatient alcohol rehab works
In an inpatient alcohol program, nursing staff monitor vital signs and withdrawal symptoms around the clock, and physicians adjust medications as needed. That level of oversight matters for heavy, long-term drinkers and anyone with heart, liver or seizure history.
Inpatient programs also screen for depression, anxiety and other conditions that often travel with alcohol use disorder.
What to expect
- Daily individual and group therapy
- An intake assessment covering substance use, health and mental health
- Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
- Family involvement and education
