Addiction treatment centerHow inpatient alcohol rehab works
In an inpatient alcohol program, nursing staff monitor vital signs and withdrawal symptoms around the clock, and physicians adjust medications as needed. That level of oversight matters for heavy, long-term drinkers and anyone with heart, liver or seizure history.
Inpatient programs also screen for depression, anxiety and other conditions that often travel with alcohol use disorder.
What to expect
- Relapse prevention and coping-skills work
- 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
