Mental health clinicDual diagnosisWhat inpatient drug rehab involves
Inpatient drug treatment starts with an assessment and, when needed, detox under medical supervision. From there, the team stabilizes physical and mental health and begins therapy while you stay on site.
Because doctors and nurses are close at hand, inpatient programs can treat people with complicated medical histories, co-occurring mental health conditions or a history of severe withdrawal.
What to expect
- Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
- Daily individual and group therapy
- A written aftercare plan before discharge
- Family involvement and education
Before you choose inpatient drug rehab
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 Waco.
Questions to ask
- Is it a hospital unit, a detox program or a residential program?
- Has prior authorization been requested?
- How are medical emergencies handled at night?
