Residential alcohol rehab is live-in treatment for alcohol use disorder. After a medically supervised detox, you stay at the program while you work through therapy, learn to handle triggers and build a plan for life after treatment.
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous on its own, so most residential programs either provide detox on site or coordinate it before admission.
What to expect
- Peer support and 12-step or non-12-step options
- 24-hour staff and a structured, substance-free setting
- Help arranging care after you leave
- Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma

Frequently asked questions
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 Monroe County.
How do I get into residential alcohol rehab near Marathon?
Most admissions start with a phone call. A specialist asks a few questions about substance use, health and insurance, then helps you find a program with an opening. Many residential programs in Florida can admit someone within a day or two once insurance is verified.
Do I need detox before alcohol rehab?
If you drink heavily every day, yes. Alcohol withdrawal can cause seizures, so medically supervised detox usually comes first. Many residential programs provide it on site.
Are there medications for alcohol cravings?
Yes. Naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram are FDA-approved for alcohol use disorder, and many residential programs offer them alongside therapy.
