Alcoholism treatment programHow inpatient alcohol rehab works
Inpatient alcohol rehab provides medically supervised care for people whose drinking has reached the point where stopping safely needs a doctor. Alcohol withdrawal can cause seizures and delirium tremens, so inpatient detox is often the safest place to start.
Once withdrawal is under control, treatment shifts to therapy, medication for cravings and planning for the weeks after discharge.
What to expect
- Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
- A daily schedule of therapy, groups and recovery activities
- Medication support for cravings or withdrawal when appropriate
- Relapse prevention and coping-skills work

Frequently asked questions
Can someone from another state come to Melbourne for treatment?
Yes. Florida programs regularly admit people from other states. Many out-of-state commercial plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield plans through the BlueCard program, can be used at in-network Florida providers. Verify benefits first.
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 Brevard County.
Is alcohol withdrawal dangerous?
It can be. Heavy, long-term drinkers can develop seizures or delirium tremens when they stop. Inpatient care lets doctors monitor and treat withdrawal safely.
What happens after inpatient alcohol treatment?
Most people step down to residential, partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient care, along with support groups and, when appropriate, medication for cravings.
