Long-term rehab covers residential programs that run longer than 30 days, often 60 days to six months or more. These programs focus on rebuilding a whole life, not just stopping substance use.
Long stays are especially useful after multiple relapses, for people with co-occurring mental health conditions, or when going home too soon would put recovery at risk.
What to expect
- Family sessions and discharge planning near the end
- Connection to outpatient care or recovery housing
- A full therapy schedule through the middle weeks
- Options to extend or step down based on progress
