Residential / inpatientHow residential drug rehab works
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 daily schedule of therapy, groups and recovery activities
- Medication support for cravings or withdrawal when appropriate
- Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
- A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
