Residential / inpatientAbout residential drug rehab
Residential drug rehab means living at the treatment program for the length of your stay, usually 28 to 90 days. Days are structured around individual therapy, group sessions, medical check-ins and recovery skills, with staff on site around the clock.
Living on site takes you out of the places, people and routines tied to drug use. For many people, that distance is what makes the first weeks of recovery possible.
What to expect
- A written aftercare plan before discharge
- Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
- Daily individual and group therapy
- Family involvement and education

Frequently asked questions
Does insurance cover residential drug rehab 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.
How do I get into residential drug rehab near Fort Myers Shores?
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.
How long is residential drug rehab?
Most residential drug rehab programs run 28 to 90 days. The right length depends on what you use, your history and how quickly you stabilize. Many people step down to outpatient care after.
Is residential drug rehab the same as inpatient?
They overlap. Inpatient care is more medically intensive and often hospital-based; residential care is a live-in program centered on therapy and structure. Many Florida programs offer both.
