Residential / inpatientWhat residential addiction treatment involves
A residential treatment center is a licensed, structured place to recover. Florida law defines residential treatment as a 24-hour, 7-day-a-week service in a structured live-in setting outside a hospital, and the Department of Children and Families licenses each provider's services.
Most programs combine evidence-based therapy, medical oversight and peer support, then help you plan aftercare before you leave.
What to expect
- Evidence-based therapies such as CBT and motivational interviewing
- Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma
- Peer support and 12-step or non-12-step options
- 24-hour staff and a structured, substance-free setting
