Choosing inpatient drug rehab means choosing round-the-clock care for the hardest part of recovery. Inpatient programs manage withdrawal, treat health complications and start the counseling that carries into the next phase of treatment.
Stays are often shorter than residential programs, and many people step down to residential, partial hospitalization or outpatient care afterward.
What to expect
- A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
- Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
- Relapse prevention and coping-skills work
- A daily schedule of therapy, groups and recovery activities
Inpatient Drug Rehab in Texas: what to know
Inpatient care is the most medically intensive option. Licensed Texas detox programs must keep a physician on call around the clock, a licensed nurse on duty at least eight hours a day, and check symptoms and vital signs every four hours for the first 72 hours. That's the level of oversight to expect from inpatient drug treatment near Georgetown.
Questions to ask
- Has prior authorization been requested?
- How are medical emergencies handled at night?
- What's the next level of care after discharge?
