Residential drug treatment is the step between detox and returning home. It gives you a safe, drug-free place to stabilize while you learn what drives your use and how to manage cravings without it.
Programs differ in length, therapies and amenities, so it helps to ask how a program handles medications, mental health care and aftercare before you commit.
What to expect
- Help arranging care after you leave
- Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma
- 24-hour staff and a structured, substance-free setting
- Peer support and 12-step or non-12-step options
Recovery resources in Miami
Miami-Dade County runs its own Central Intake Unit as the front door for adults seeking a substance use evaluation, referral, or treatment placement. Referrals come from courts, police, community agencies, and family members, and walk-ins are accepted; staff decide whether outpatient or residential care fits.
The county's New Direction Residential Treatment Program serves adult Miami-Dade residents with counseling, medication-assisted treatment, case management, and relapse and overdose prevention. It includes a transitional track for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and an intensive program for women.

Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
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.
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.
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.
