Residential addiction treatment covers live-in programs for drug and alcohol addiction, often alongside mental health care. You stay at the facility for weeks or months, with a full schedule of therapy and support and staff available at all hours.
It suits people who have not been able to stop with outpatient care, whose home environment makes recovery harder, or who simply need a reset away from daily pressures.
What to expect
- Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
- A written aftercare plan before discharge
- An intake assessment covering substance use, health and mental health
- Family involvement and education

Frequently asked questions
Does insurance cover residential addiction treatment in Florida?
Most commercial health plans cover medically necessary addiction treatment, including residential and inpatient care, under federal parity rules. Coverage depends on your plan, network and medical necessity reviews, so it helps to verify benefits before admission.
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 Sarasota County.
What does a day in residential treatment look like?
A typical day includes morning check-ins, individual and group therapy, educational sessions, meals, exercise or recreation and evening support groups, with staff on site 24 hours.
How does Florida license residential treatment?
The Florida Department of Children and Families licenses substance use treatment providers under Chapter 397, Florida Statutes, and licenses each service a provider offers, such as residential treatment or detox. You can verify a license in DCF's online provider search before admission.
