Long-term rehab covers residential programs that run longer than 30 days, often 60 days to six months or more. These programs focus on rebuilding a whole life, not just stopping substance use.
Long stays are especially useful after multiple relapses, for people with co-occurring mental health conditions, or when going home too soon would put recovery at risk.
What to expect
- Insurance reviews coordinated by the program
- Aftercare and alumni support
- Phased treatment that adds responsibility over time
- A defined length of stay with weekly progress reviews
Local help and next steps
DCF's provider search groups a provider's sites and licensed components under one listing, shows whether each license is regular, interim, or probationary, and offers site-level details such as inspection reports and administrative actions.
If a loved one refuses help and is a danger to themselves or others, Florida's Marchman Act lets families ask the court for involuntary assessment and treatment. Petitions for Tice residents are filed in Lee County; see how to file a Marchman Act in Lee County.
