Residential addiction treatment covers live-in programs for drug and alcohol addiction, often alongside mental health care. You stay at the facility for weeks or months, with a full schedule of therapy and support and staff available at all hours.
It suits people who have not been able to stop with outpatient care, whose home environment makes recovery harder, or who simply need a reset away from daily pressures.
What to expect
- Relapse prevention and coping-skills work
- A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
- Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
- Medication support for cravings or withdrawal when appropriate

Frequently asked questions
Should someone from Killeen stay in Texas for treatment?
For most Texans with a Texas health plan, yes. In-network benefits are easiest to use at Texas programs, family can take part in family sessions, and aftercare near home is simpler to arrange. Some people choose a program in a different part of Texas to get distance from where they used.
What if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Texas, Health and Safety Code Chapter 462 also lets a family member or other adult apply to the county court for court-ordered treatment, with a physician's certificate attached, when someone's addiction makes them likely to cause serious harm or keep deteriorating. See our guide to court-ordered treatment in Texas.
What does a day in residential treatment look like?
A typical day includes morning check-ins, individual and group therapy, educational sessions, meals, exercise or recreation and evening support groups, with staff on site 24 hours.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission licenses chemical dependency treatment facilities under Health and Safety Code Chapter 464, with rules in 26 Texas Administrative Code Chapter 564. You can check a license through HHSC's online licensing system or its directory of licensed facilities.
